Culture

We are a dynamic team of engineers bringing together iterative NLP model development, high performance systems engineering and effective software development. Much of our work is highly experimental. We are not perfectionists, we move fast, and are not afraid to be on the learning curve. A willingness to learn and a can do attitude are must-haves to survive and thrive in this team.

As a startup we often have to find a balance between speed, quality and cost of development. This often requires us to think creatively and even invent what doesn’t exist. We are ambitious, we take risks, and we embrace failure in a judgment free but accountable environment.

We work in a trust-based, mission-driven, goal-oriented, fully-remote work environment. We enable each other, but also consciously protect our time to deliver high quality work, to help create a thriving innovation culture.

Compensation and Benefits:

• Competitive pay plus stock options (salary $90k-$140k commensurate on experience, stock 0.1%-0.2%)
• Laptop and monitor
• Training + mentorship opportunities available
• Flexible work hours and location. We’re cool with remote work! In-person office workspace can be made available in Toronto (if required)
• Health Benefits Plan
• Annual Company Retreats IRL (otherwise fully remote)
• Additional winter holiday (Dec 25 - Jan 1)
• Opportunity for significant career advancement
• Work for a fast-growing AI startup and make an impact. We are building something legit and impactful, not just another app
