About the job
About Our Team
Adaptive ML is an innovative AI startup specializing in the development of a Reinforcement Learning Operations (RLOps) platform designed to empower enterprises to tailor large language models for their specific needs, ensuring reliable deployment into production workflows with quantifiable results.
Our Success team plays a pivotal role within our Technical Staff. While the Technical Staff focuses on developing the core technology that drives Adaptive ML, the Success team is dedicated to helping our enterprise clients maximize the value of these technologies, particularly through our Adaptive Engine product.
Adaptive Engine enables businesses to construct, evaluate, and deploy the most effective models tailored to their unique requirements. Our founding team has previously collaborated on creating state-of-the-art open large language models. Following a successful $20M seed funding round led by Index Ventures and ICONIQ in early 2024, we are actively working with our first enterprise customers, including Manulife, AT&T, Deloitte, and more to be announced soon.
About the Role
As an AI Engineer (Pre-Sales) at Adaptive ML, you will serve as the technical liaison for our sales team, assisting potential clients in understanding how the Adaptive Engine can address their most challenging issues. Your role will involve crafting and presenting impactful demonstrations, guiding customers through proof of concepts, and creating technical proposals that underscore the unique advantages of our platform and reinforcement learning capabilities.
This role is distinctly technical, offering you the chance to engage hands-on with the Adaptive Engine—developing demos, fine-tuning large language models, and initiating pilots that transition prospects into clients. Additionally, you will contribute to shaping the product roadmap by identifying and articulating customer needs and insights.
Please note: This is an in-person position based in our Toronto or New York offices.
Your Responsibilities
Collaborate with the sales team to engage prospects, identifying business challenges and aligning them with Adaptive ML solutions.
Design and present engaging technical demonstrations tailored to the specific use cases of customers.
Lead and oversee proof-of-concept (POC) initiatives and pilots, ensuring technical success and achieving clear business objectives.
Create prototype pipelines and fine-tuned large language models using the Adaptive Engine to illustrate production-ready solutions.
