About the role

Sierra in San Francisco is seeking a senior ML/AI systems engineer who can advance our production models and post-training work. You will work across data, evaluation, and deployment to build reliable, high-impact agents and improve customer experiences. You’ll collaborate with cross-functional teams, push state-of-the-art methods, and turn complex product problems into ML tasks. A CS/ML degree or equivalent experience is expected, with a passion for rigorous experimentation and responsible AI.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
