About the job
Join Our Pioneering Team
At Sieve, we are trailblazers in the realm of AI research, specifically dedicated to harnessing the power of video data. Our cutting-edge infrastructure processes exabyte-scale video, utilizing innovative video understanding methodologies, and integrating diverse data sources to create groundbreaking datasets that redefine video modeling. With video accounting for a staggering 80% of global internet traffic, it stands as the cornerstone of digital creativity, communication, gaming, AR/VR, and robotics. Our mission is to eliminate the primary barrier to the growth of these technologies: the scarcity of high-quality training data.
Having collaborated with leading AI laboratories, we achieved $XXM in revenue last quarter alone with a compact team of just 15 talented individuals. Our successful Series A funding round last year, backed by prestigious firms such as Matrix Partners, Swift Ventures, Y Combinator, and AI Grant, underscores our potential for exponential growth.
The Role You’ll Play
As an Applied Research Engineer at Sieve, you will be instrumental in constructing high-performance building blocks and expansive pipelines to achieve high-precision video comprehension at internet scale. Your role will often involve tackling ambiguous research challenges and devising ingenious solutions. You will engage with domains including computer vision, audio processing, and text processing.
The ideal candidate will possess a strong command of models and APIs, leveraging innovative pre/post-processing techniques, parallelism, pipelining, inference optimization, and occasional fine-tuning to maximize performance.
