We implement state-of-the-art techniques but constantly strive to build the simplest possible solution. OSARO is technique agnostic and always focused on the goal. We regularly review academic literature and techniques while steering clear of the hype. We’re focused on delighting our customers with systems that work like magic.
We have a highly international team made up of expert machine learning practitioners and dedicated software and hardware engineers which match well with the global nature of our business. We are naturally curious, love healthy debate, and respect varying points of view. At OSARO, we strive to be champions for equality. We believe we can serve as a model for diversity in the tech industry by emphasizing policies of nondiscrimination and inclusion at every step.
We are an equal opportunity employer who offers
Health, dental, vision, and commuter benefits & stipend
Catered lunches in a dog friendly office, phone and learning stipend
Generous vacation time
Excellent paid parental leave policy with the option for additional reduced and unpaid leave
The above full-time position is available immediately. You should be willing to move to the SF Bay Area and physically be in the office. This is not a remote position.
