Job Description:

Prior Labs is building foundation models that understand tabular data, the backbone of science and business. Foundation models have transformed text and images, but structured data has remained largely untouched. We’re tackling this $600B opportunity to fundamentally change how organizations work with scientific, medical, financial, and business data.

Job Responsibility:

  • Customer Success & Deployment: Work hands-on with clients to deploy models, ensuring they achieve tangible business outcomes and measurable impact
  • Integration Engineering: Design and implement seamless integrations with platforms like Databricks, Snowflake, and complex enterprise ecosystems
  • Tailored AI Solutions: Customize and optimize models for diverse use cases, balancing performance, scalability, and business needs
  • Product Feedback Loop: Gather insights from customer deployments to inform and influence product development, shaping the evolution of our models
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with ML researchers, product managers, and engineers to translate groundbreaking research into scalable, production-ready solutions

Requirements:

  • Strong engineering fundamentals with expert-level Python skills
  • Hands-on experience with ML frameworks, particularly PyTorch and Scikit-learn
  • Proven track record of deploying ML systems in production environments
  • Experience with Databricks, Snowflake, or other enterprise data platforms
  • Strategic problem-solving mindset with a strong focus on customer outcomes
  • Commitment to writing clean, maintainable, and well-documented code

Nice to have:

  • Experience in forward-deployed engineering or technical customer-facing roles
  • Contributions to open-source projects in ML or data engineering
  • Proficiency with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and modern data pipelines
  • Expertise in APIs, deployment pipelines, and enterprise integration architectures
  • Strong communication skills to engage both technical and business stakeholders
What we offer:
  • Competitive compensation package with meaningful equity
  • 30 days of paid vacation + public holidays
  • Comprehensive benefits including healthcare, transportation, and fitness
  • Work with state-of-the-art ML architecture, substantial compute resources and with a world-class team
