Founding Product Engineer
Full-Time - Engineering - SF Bay
About Us
At zaimler, we are on a mission to bridge the gap between enterprise business knowledge and data, democratizing data discovery and curation to prepare organizations for the era of generative AI. Today's data tools are overly complex, poorly integrated, and siloed, forcing AI Practitioners and data scientists alike to spend more time wrestling with tools, relying on tribal knowledge, and navigating data lakes rather than doing meaningful data science work. The current landscape of data tools and processes is heavily manual and needs to catch up with the vast amount of data generated daily. With the advent of Gen AI and multi-modality, this challenge has only grown more complex and broken.
Backed by top tier VC funds we are committed to make enterprise data AI-ready faster, more reliable, and with a stronger foundation of factual semantic knowledge. This leads to more accurate models, superior outcomes, and better business results. Our team of seasoned data infrastructure and machine learning experts (running ML teams at LinkedIn, Visa, Truera, Hive and Branch) have spent the past two decades building bespoke systems to solve these very challenges.
