Design the intelligence and memory layer. LLMs, embeddings, and systems thinking required.
Kodezi isn’t just another dev tool — it’s the orchestration layer beneath your software. We’re building Kodezi OS: a real-time, cross-platform operating system that heals, evolves, and documents codebases autonomously.
As a Founding ML Engineer, you’ll architect the intelligence powering autonomous pull requests, long-term memory, and self-improving workflows. You’ll work across product, infra, and full-stack teams to embed real-time decision-making into the operating system for code.
This role is in-person in San Francisco, with remote options across North America and Europe for exceptional candidates.
🛠️ What You’ll Do
Design and deploy systems for healing, documentation, testing, and code evolution
Build and scale memory-driven workflows using embeddings and semantic context
Develop and refine agent behavior models for planning, implementation, and review
Optimize internal model routing, prompt logic, and interaction history
Work closely with product and frontend teams to surface model insights across the OS
Build internal tools for evaluating intelligence, tracing decisions, and tuning workflows
Lead the roadmap for intelligence infrastructure and long-term learning
🎯 What We’re Looking For
3–5+ years building and shipping applied ML or intelligent systems
Experience designing or deploying custom models, agents, or pipelines
Familiarity with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), embeddings, and vector memory
Understanding of prompt chaining, output evaluation, and workflow tuning
Experience working with structured code data — diffs, ASTs, repos, version history
Bonus: experience with testing models, program repair, or codebase analysis
Bonus: strong product awareness — you design intelligence that feels intuitive
