In this role, you will support efforts to leverage GenAI techniques to address unique challenges within our company. You will contribute to building a state-of-the-art conversational service bot that can scale across a million monthly active users (MAU), developing cutting-edge production AI/ML solutions for complex Text2Action problems, and analyzing time series data to identify anomalous behavior. Imagine the next generation of IT services being offered not via dashboards or clicks but through interactive, conversational interfaces backed by real-time analysis of streaming data. This vision is what you will help make a reality. You will develop algorithms to analyze millions of streaming data points and assist in building a distributed, scalable, and high-performance system to deliver insights to customers through a next-gen conversational UI/UX.
Responsibilities:
Strategic Collaboration: Work closely with product and business teams to understand challenges and opportunities within the GenAI landscape, aligning data science initiatives with organizational objectives.
Metric Definition: Define key performance metrics to measure the value delivered to end-users through GenAI solutions.
Intelligent System Design: Utilize deep expertise in machine learning, statistics, and advanced mathematics to conceptualize, experiment with, and design intelligent systems powered by GenAI.
ML/AI Architecture: Collaborate with ML Engineers to design scalable systems and model architectures for real-time ML/AI services.
Qualifications
A Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related field, with a minimum of 4 years of relevant work experience.
Strong problem-solving and programming skills, with a solid understanding of the mathematical foundations of machine learning algorithms, including probability, statistics, linear algebra, calculus, and optimization.
Proven experience in deploying ML projects in production systems with significant individual contributions.
Experience with natural language processing tasks utilizing prompt engineering, LLMs, transformers, and knowledge graphs is highly advantageous.
Proficiency in time series analysis, NLP, distributed systems, large-scale computing, and Big Data technologies such as Hadoop and Spark is a plus.
Expertise in at least 2 of the following areas: Natural language processing, statistical ML techniques, graph algorithms, constraint optimization, signal processing (speech or vision), deep learning, and distributed systems.
If you are a forward-thinking data scientist passionate about pushing the boundaries of GenAI and driving the transformation of IT services through interactive, conversational experiences, we encourage you to apply and join our dynamic team. Your expertise will be pivotal in turning our GenAI vision into a reality.

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
