Senior ML/AI engineer

Onebrief makes military planning seamless and represents a shift in paradigm for future military decisions. It is an all-in-one tool that supports both the creative and process-oriented aspects of military planning. In Onebrief, planners use maps, boards, diagrams, timelines, tables, slide decks and text documents to create their plans—all while sharing a common database. Everything stays in sync, in real time. Our approach has been refined and validated through hundreds of user experiments.

We’re post-revenue ($5M+ in ARR), and our customers include some of the most prestigious military commands around the world. We are backed by Y Combinator (S21) and top-tier VCs, including Caffeinated Capital (Affirm, Docker, Notion, and more). Our elite team combines the best of tech and military talent, including education and experience at Google, Facebook, Twitter, Adobe, MIT, Harvard, Rivian, Delta Force, TOPGUN, and more.

We have a big year ahead of us and can barely keep up with demand. This is an opportunity for you to join us with all the perks of an early employee.

As our first Machine Learning/AI Engineer, you will be pivotal in shaping and developing our AI infrastructure. This role grants you a unique opportunity to take ownership, apply your knowledge, and make your mark on our company's future direction. With a high degree of autonomy, you will be implementing and refining cutting-edge AI/ML solutions with directly impact on our product's success.

This is an opportunity for candidates with hands-on experience evaluating, fine-tuning, training, and productionalizing modern algorithms and open-source machine learning models. Above all, for ambitious individuals who are ready to embrace the challenges and rewards of being the pioneering ML/AI engineer in a rapidly growing startup.

The ideal candidate is a pragmatic individual with a strong formal background in Machine Learning/AI and a bias towards action.

This is a strategic and high-impact role. You will report directly to Rafa, our CTO.
