Applied AI engineer

Daice Labs • Full-time • Remote (Boston, MA, US) • 1w ago

Company Description

Daice Labs is building hybrid AI frameworks that integrate today's models into systems that learn continuously. Founded by MIT CSAIL scientists, we focus on building new architectures by combining LLMs/DL with symbolic reasoning and bio-inspired system design. Operating on two tracks, our Product Lab develops industry-specific solutions for collaborative human teams + AI co-building and co-owning vertical applications, while our Research Lab explores how principles of natural intelligence can guide systems design of new hybrid AI architectures.

Join us in taking the next leap in productivity through collaborative innovation.

Role Description

This is a full-time remote role for an Applied AI Engineer. The Applied AI Engineer will be responsible for developing and deploying AI models, participating in the design of hybrid AI frameworks, and conducting research on integrating symbolic reasoning with LLMs and DL. Day-to-day tasks include pipeline development, software development, deploying, evaluation and testing of hybrid frameworks. The role involves both independent work and collaboration with cross-functional teams to drive the evolution of AI systems.
