AI Engineer
About the Company
Kanu AI is your organization’s AI coworker that deploys in your own cloud, continuously learns from your data, team intelligence, and outputs, and uses that knowledge to encode and maintain workflows that mirror how your people work.
The Role
We're hiring an AI engineer to own the AI systems at the heart of the product. You'll work directly with the founders and own the full loop: data, training, evaluations, and shipping into production.
What You'll Do
Build and own the ML stack—data pipelines, infrastructure, agent optimization, evaluations, tuning
Ship AI features into production constantly and iterate against real usage
Improve the evaluation harnesses that tell us whether the product is actually getting better
Track the research frontier and apply it pragmatically—novelty only where it wins
What We're Looking For
Evidence you've shipped ML that real users touched—in production, research, or serious projects
Strong fundamentals across the stack, not just notebooks
Pragmatism: you pick the boring approach that works over the clever one that might
Comfort owning systems end to end with no ML team behind you
Compensation & Equity
Early-stage compensation: a meaningful equity stake plus salary. Specifics depend on experience and location—we're happy to talk through the details early in the process.
