Job Description
**We welcome all people based in Toronto, ON to apply. This job is a hybrid role from this location. **
We are looking for AI/ML developers to build cutting-edge AI systems that support our mission of transforming how organizations understand and improve the Employee Experience. Join us as one of the founding members of our new Toronto team.
What You’ll Work On
Build AI that drives real impact
- Develop AI agents that turn insights into action — from conversational listening to AI coaching that's proven to drive change at scale
- Build and deploy NLP models that analyze employee feedback
- Develop our agent platform, making it easier to build, test, and deploy new agent capabilities
Ship fast, learn faster
- Work with cross-functional teams including people from product engineering, data engineering, and software engineering to integrate AI into production systems
- Follow a rapid iterative process that integrates feedback to move from idea, to prototype, to real world use case
- Document and share knowledge, insights, and learnings with the larger team
Stay at the forefront of AI
- Engage with and lead our thinking on AI by staying current with advancements in the field
- Attend conferences, workshops, and industry events
- Bring emerging ideas back to the team and explore their application to employee experience
Core requirements
- 3+ years building and shipping AI, ML, or NLP systems
- Strong Python programming and ability to write clean, maintainable code
- Comfortable working with LLMs — fine-tuning, prompting, and building products around them
- Experience with modern machine learning frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or similar)
- Experience working with data at scale (SQL, data warehouses, cloud platforms)
What makes you stand out
- You've built AI products that users depend on at a SaaS company
- You can explain complex AI concepts to non-technical teammates
- You're comfortable with the full lifecycle of a system built on AI — from experimentation to production monitoring
Good to Know
- We use OpenAI, AWS, Snowflake, and a variety of ML tools, but we care more about your ability to learn than any specific tool experience
Why Join Us
- Work on AI that makes a real impact on people's work lives
- Collaborate with a team that values innovation and experimentation
- Opportunity to shape the future of employee experience technology
We are a team built on purpose, not perfection.
The game is changing, and we're writing the new playbook. Our goals are ambitious, and we know that building the future requires diverse perspectives and skills. If you're excited about this role, but your experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification, we still encourage you to apply.
We're looking for people who are accountable, customer-centric, and innovative. We believe that talent thrives when we empower leaders to grow and evolve. So, apply anyway. You might be just the right person for this role or another opportunity on our team.
