Job description

Glean is looking for engineers to help build the world’s best search and assistant product for work. Our engineers work on a range of systems across the stack, including query understanding, document understanding, domain-adapted language models, natural language question-answering, evaluation, and experimentation. We interact regularly with customers, deeply understand their pain points, and use whatever tool is necessary, simple or complex, to solve their problems. You will:

  • Invent new signals to improve the personalization of our search engine
  • Train a model to capture interactions between signals in our ranking system
  • Design smarter ways to domain-adapt language models to each customer’s corpus
  • Discover new ways of combining LLMs with search engines to answer complex questions
  • Write robust code that’s easy to read, maintain, and test
  • Mentor more junior engineers, or learn from battle-tested ones

Requirements

  • 2+ years of experience
  • BA/BS in computer science, math, sciences, or a related degree
  • Experience working with search, recommendation, natural language processing, or other large systems involving machine learning
  • Strong analytical skills and ability to work with data
  • Proven ability to design, build, and ship production-ready models
  • Proficiency in your ML framework of choice
  • Strong coding skills (Python, Go, Java, C++, …)
  • Thrive in a customer-focused, tight-knit and cross-functional environment - being a team player and willing to take on whatever is most impactful for the company is a must
  • A proactive and positive attitude to lead, learn, troubleshoot and take ownership of both small tasks and large features
