Benefits
Working at Cleanlab is awesome! Beyond the opportunity to work at a well-funded AI startup with an incredible, friendly founding team of MIT graduates, all full-time employees receive the following:

Annual travel stipend
Travel enhances our empathy with different cultures and enables us to work together more effectively. It’s how we grow and learn: traveling is an essential part of what makes us human. At Cleanlab, every two months you will receive a reimbursable travel benefit. This is a unique benefit that lets you work from Paris for a week in February, then take a backpacking trip in the Andes for a weekend in March.
Premium health insurance (+ dental and vision)
We provide a fantastic $4 (we cover the rest) health insurance option. We also provide a $0 deductible 100% coverage premium health care option for those who prefer the best health insurance.

Relocation bonus to move to San Francisco
The compensation range for this role is $140,000 to $200,000. The final offer details are determined by several factors including candidate experience/expertise and may vary from the pay range provided.

About us
Prior to Cleanlab, our founders (3 ML PhDs from MIT) worked at OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, AWS, Facebook AI Research (FAIR), Dropbox, Oculus, Palantir, NASA, General Electric, MIT Lincoln Laboratory, MIT, Harvard, and Stanford – at every place we worked we repeatedly encountered the same issue – AI solutions failed to work reliably on real-world, human-centric data due to label errors and poor data quality. So, we spent eight years of PhD research at MIT inventing a new field to solve this problem and after successful pilots with world-leading organizations, Cleanlab emerged.

Everything we do at Cleanlab is guided by our north star – to improve the world’s ML data more easily and quicker than any other solution – enabling AI systems to train more reliably on real-world, messy, error-prone data. We develop next-generation data-centric AI, open-source algorithms and provide no-code SaaS enterprise solutions to help individuals and teams at companies (across all industries) diagnose/fix issues in their datasets and produce more reliable ML models by providing clean labels for training.

Dupe.com has built the fastest way for shoppers to understand their purchase options and to feel confident in what to buy next. Shopping needs a reset, and Dupe is obliging. We've built a powerful visual shopping engine that helps shoppers save money and time, and helps them feel confident on what to buy next. We're a small group of relentless and creative executors with an inspired sense of "can do anything" energy. Dupe was born out of the ashes of a 3 year endeavor to bring AI personal assistants to shopping when we realized that only some shoppers care about staying organized as they shop, but everyone cares about saving money. Using our insights, we've organically grown Dupe to over 2 million shoppers in 3 months and have grown into a profitable cash-generating machine — it has never been more clear that we're at the very beginning of something enormous. Join us if you share in that electricity and relentlessness required at the early stages of an exciting upstart.

Dupe.com

Let’s talk about sticker shock.

We’ve all been there, right? You’re shopping online, and you come across something you love: incredible designer furniture, flawless housewares, the perfect top. You’re instantly obsessed. Your heart skips a beat as you start to imagine buying it… but then you see the price.

Before, there was nothing you could do. Too expensive? Too bad. But now, you have a choice.

You can keep shopping like a normie, taking prices at face value and meekly accepting that you’re limited by your bank account. Or, you can use Dupe to find lookalikes you can actually afford. Taking the products you want as a starting point, then letting Dupe search the entire internet for the same or similar items at a fraction of the price. We think it’s an easy call.

Dupe is the secret that everyone should be in on. It’s a magic trick. A cheat code. A loophole of epic proportions. Why it isn’t mainstream household information yet, we have no idea — but we’re glad you found us early.

Everyone deserves to be surrounded by beautiful things. We built Dupe to make it happen.

Our Staff Backend/SRE/DevOps Engineer will be a cornerstone of our engineering team, working directly with our CTO to shape Dupe's technical future. They should be a DevOps enthusiast who automates everything they touch - their expertise will be instrumental in turning this vision into reality.We're looking for a seasoned engineer with a proven track record of building robust, scalable systems; someone who sees infrastructure as a creative challenge, not just a technical one.

Today, when you go to your doctor and need to be referred to a specialist (e.g., for sleep apnea), your doctor sends a fax (yes, in 2024, 90% of provider-provider communication is a 1980s fax).

The problem is so complex that a person has to read it, type it up, and manually enter your information. Tennr built RaeLLM™ (7B—trained on 3M+ documents) to read these docs, talk to your doc to ensure nothing is missed, and text you to help schedule your appointment so you can get better, faster.Tennr is a NYC-based tech company that launched out of Y-Combinator and is backed by Andreesen Horowitz, Foundation Capital, The New Normal Fund, and other top investors.&nbsp;

Debt Collectors play an overlooked yet integral part of our financial ecosystem. They help Consumers settle their debts and improve their credit scores— granting them clean states to start over. Collectors help critical businesses like doctor's offices and local governments, who deal with high payment default risk, secure their revenue streams and ensure their continued survival.

In truth, Collectors have incredibly interesting, multi-faceted jobs. They are often one part sales person, one part therapist, and one part detective in their mission to recover funds. At Aktos, we are building a modern software platform that caters to Collectors' unique workflows, and make the credit recovery process a more positive experience for all parties.

CTO & Co-Founder

Aktos

The Aktos product is a system of record, and core workflow software, for debt collection agencies. It is structured like a CRM, but it keeps track of delinquent accounts a collection agency is working instead of sales leads. There is a heavy fintech component as well, as we do multiple payment processor integrations.

The Founding Senior Full Stack Engineer at Aktos is a pivotal role aimed at building the Operating System for the $18B Credit Collections industry. This position is designed for an engineer with a lean towards Backend development (70/30), who is comfortable working across the entire tech stack. The role involves collaborating with the CEO, CTO, and other engineers to develop full-stack features and improvements, refine the SDLC &amp; CI/CD pipelines, and maintain the AWS infrastructure. This position is for those who are comfortable with autonomy, ownership, and have a strong work ethic, with a passion for delivering high-quality code and making sound UX decisions. The engineer will play a key role in creating a modern software platform that enhances the credit recovery process, helping Consumers, doctor's offices, and local governments. The role requires 5+ years of Software Development experience, in-depth knowledge of Python, Django, JavaScript (React/Redux preferred), and hands-on experience with AWS.

We are one of those rare seed stage startups that have found Product Market Fit. We are a remote-first company.

With foundation models getting better we expect the world to be dramatically different in the future.

We’ve seen companies spend months of engineering time building good tooling for this (time which could be spent on their core end user facing product) and despite this they struggle to get the best results out of these models. Our platform provides companies best in class tooling to use their own data in production AI applications.We’re a YC W23 company, raised $9.5m and are backed by top investors like Rebel Fund, Eastlink Capital, Arash Ferdowsi (co-founder of Dropbox), Dharmesh Shah (co-founder of Hubspot), Dan Scholnick (board member of Weights &amp; Biases, Docker, New Relic), and Divya Bhat (former YC group partner, 2x CEO).

What you’re signing up for
Tackling our most difficult (and interesting) problems - prompt chaining, fine-tuning infrastructure, and multimodality, just to name a few
Designing, architecting, and building robust critical infrastructure
Owning our most important backend systems
Defining and scoping green-field projects that move the company forward

Navigating a fast-moving, highly competitive landscape
Our stack

In case you’re curious:

Google Cloud Platform - as our cloud provider
Postgres - as our primary database
Python - what we write our backend in
Django - for our webservers
Flask - for our microservices
Typescript - what we write our frontend in
React - as our frontend framework
Working at Vellum
We’re laser focused on helping companies bring AI into production and providing real business value. Decision making is simple: if what we do allows our users to increase how many use cases of AI they’re able to successfully put into production, then we do it!
Don’t just cut corners. Cut the right corners (i.e. reduce scope, not quality). What can you do with 10% of your time to get 90% of the desired impact? Now that you only spent 10% of the time on this task, imagine how much more can be done with the rest of your time!
Everyone is a 1000x engineer/designer/pm when they’re passionate about the problems they’re solving and love the people they’re working with
Because we trust each other, we can move fast and have fun doing it 😄
