About the role

  • As a Data Scientist at AE Studio, you'll work on a mix of client projects and internal research initiatives.
  • In addition to client projects, you'll have the opportunity to propose and pursue high-impact research projects, especially those aligned with our mission of increasing agency.
  • Promising projects could even become prioritized skunkworks initiatives.

Responsibilities

  • AE Studio builds products, platforms, and internal ventures that increase agency for all conscious beings.
  • We combine world-class software engineering, AI expertise, and product design to ship ambitious projects that matter.
  • You've been a key contributor to impactful projects and know how to deliver results with real-life outcomes.
  • expertise in experimental design, uncertainty quantification, and rigorous model evaluation across tabular, time-series, and foundation-model fine-tuning tasks.
  • You'll solve real-world problems, help build meaningful products, and contribute to groundbreaking AI alignment research.
  • Proven data science experience: You've been a key contributor to impactful projects and know how to deliver results with real-life outcomes.
  • Statistical & causal ML fundamentals: expertise in experimental design, uncertainty quantification, and rigorous model evaluation across tabular, time-series, and foundation-model fine-tuning tasks.
  • Supportive environment: A team that collaborates, mentors, and shares knowledge.
  • You get a real stake in the things you help build.

Requirements

  • Required Skills and Experience
  • Experience with LLM lifecycle: prompt design/engineering, prompting techniques (RAG, few-shot, CoT, etc.), vector databases, multimodality, fine-tuning, and evaluation.

Compensation

  • The salary range is $180k to $ 240k per year for people based in California.

Benefits

  • Flexible schedules: We care about outcomes, not micromanagement.
  • Competitive pay: Regular performance-based raises and a diversified employee equity program.
  • Perks: Health insurance, free lunches (at the office), weekly knowledge-sharing talks, and an annual team retreat.
  • Working at AE means receiving equity in our client projects and in Skunkworks ventures.
  • The equity is priced at $0 when granted for tax reasons, but AE invests millions into these projects.
  • Equity comes from reduced margins on client work and internal funding.
  • The longer you stay, the more value you create and the more equity you receive.
  • If you leave on good terms, you can retain 20% of your equity by staying engaged.
  • Your work will involve building data-driven solutions, leveraging machine learning models, and using your creativity to deliver results that matter.

Company info

  • Work from anywhere, or join us in one of our offices.
  • That's fine, you can still apply, and our team may fit you in a more senior position that we're not actively hiring right now, but we are growing fast and may have other openings soon.
