Job Description
Company A1 is building a proactive AI smart assistant for everyday users to bring intelligence to conversations, errands, organising and workflows. Our product focuses on achieving high reliability for long-running workflows, persistent context, and real-world task completion. The system must handle multi-step reasoning, interact with external tools, and remain reliable despite non-deterministic model behavior. Role As Technical Lead, Machine Learning, you own the execution layer of A1’s intelligence. You translate research direction into reliable, scalable, production-grade ML systems. This role sits at the intersection of research, infrastructure, and product. You are responsible for making models trainable, deployable, observable, and performant under real-world constraints. What You'll Do Own end-to-end ML system execution: data pipelines, training workflows, evaluation systems, inference architecture, and deployment. Fine-tune and adapt models using state-of-the-art methods such as LoRA, QLoRA, SFT, DPO, and distillation. Architect and operate scalable inference systems, balancing latency, cost, and reliability. Design and maintain data systems for high-quality synthetic and real-world training data. Implement evaluation pipelines covering performance, robustness, safety, and bias, in partnership with research leadership. Own production deployment, including GPU optimization, memory efficiency, latency reduction, and scaling policies. Collaborate closely with application engineering to integrate ML systems cleanly into backend, mobile, and desktop products. Make pragmatic trade-offs and ship improvements quickly, learning from real usage. Work under real production constraints: latency, cost, reliability, and safety Outcomes Research and models reliably translate into production-ready solutions with clear performance and quality targets. ML pipelines, training loops, and inference systems are stable, efficient, and maintainable. Production issues are detected,
