Description

About Snorkel At Snorkel, we believe meaningful AI doesn’t start with the model, it starts with the data. We’re on a mission to help enterprises transform expert knowledge into specialized AI at scale. The AI landscape has gone through incredible changes between 2015, when Snorkel started as a research project in the Stanford AI Lab, to the generative AI breakthroughs of today. But one thing has remained constant: the data you use to build AI is the key to achieving differentiation, high performance, and production-ready systems. We work with some of the world’s largest organizations to empower scientists, engineers, financial experts, product creators, journalists, and more to build custom AI with their data faster than ever before. Excited to help us redefine how AI is built? Apply to be the newest Snorkeler! As an Applied AI Engineer, you’ll research and utilize established and state-of-the-art Gen AI and machine learning (ML) techniques to successfully deliver solutions to our customers. You will work directly with our customers to understand their business and technical needs and design and deliver AI solutions—either by leveraging Snorkel Flow or developing custom approaches when needed—to solve high-impact customer problems. You will also help define Snorkel’s Applied AI tooling and workflows by translating real-world customer challenges into reusable patterns, best practices, and platform-level capabilities that become part of Snorkel Flow’s next generation of AI tooling. We move fast and are constantly prototyping new ways to deliver value to our customers. This position is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, working directly with customers, and bridging the gap between AI technology and business value, while staying naturally curious about the tools, workflows, and infrastructure that underpin the AI stack end-to-end.
