We're hiring a Senior NLP Engineer to own the accuracy of our information-extraction pipeline. You'll work on hard problems extracting material properties and quantitative measurements from long, complex documents — patents and scientific literature where the signal is scattered across sections and relationships span paragraphs. This is a hands-on senior role with end-to-end ownership: you'll independently scope, prototype, and ship algorithmic improvements, define how we measure quality, and raise the extraction precision bar to production grade.
