Ml Platform Engineer in San Francisco

About Scale AI Scale AI is the data foundation for AI, helping organizations build and deploy reliable production AI applications. We partner with the world's leading enterprises and government organizations to accelerate their AI transformation through frontier AI systems that solve real business problems. Every day, we work with organizations across finance, healthcare, manufacturing, media and telecommunications to build production AI agents that automate complex workflows, help humans, reason over enterprise knowledge, and operate safely at scale. The Opportunity Applied AI is moving faster than ever. New foundation models, reasoning techniques, agent architectures, and research papers emerge every week. Yet building AI systems that reliably solve real-world problems remains one of the hardest engineering challenges. As a Frontier Agent Engineer (Applied AI) , you'll bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI research and production deployment. You'll work directly with enterprise customers to design, evaluate, and deploy intelligent systems that combine frontier models with structured knowledge, retrieval, traditional machine learning, and enterprise software. Unlike traditional ML roles that focus on a single model or product, you'll work across a diverse portfolio of AI challenges spanning multiple industries and use cases. You may build a multi-agent research system and then participate in designing a customer intelligence platform, a healthcare copilot, or an autonomous workflow for a Fortune 100 company. If you enjoy reading new AI papers, experimenting with the latest models, and shipping production systems that create measurable business impact, you'll fit right in. What You'll Build Frontier AI Systems Design and deploy production AI agents that leverage the latest advances in large language models, reasoning, retrieval, memory, and tool use. Architect intelligent systems that combine LLMs, traditional machine learning, structured knowledge, enterprise data

At Scale, our mission is to develop reliable AI systems for the world's most important decisions. For 10 years, Scale has provided the high-quality data and full-stack technologies that power the world's leading models, and has helped enterprises and governments build, deploy, and oversee AI applications that deliver real impact. We work closely with industry leaders like Meta, Ernst & Young, Mayo Clinic, Time Inc., the Government of Qatar, and U.S. government agencies including the Army and Air Force. Scale's internship is not a side project.

Example Projects Build multi-layered guardrails that keep agents safe and predictable in high-stakes federal environments Optimize data retrieval for agents, including RAG pipelines over large, heterogeneous federal datasets Build orchestration for fleets of asynchronous agents running long-horizon tasks Develop systems that automatically alert users to deviations and anomalies in incoming data Create interfaces that illustrate how an agent reached a decision, so operators can audit and trust its output Develop data pipelines and ML infrastructure that make previously siloed government data sources accessible to agents Build evaluation infrastructure that measures model reliability against mission requirements Ship full-stack tooling that lets analysts query, visualize, and explore mission data Deploy and harden applications into secure, air-gapped, and cloud-native government environments Requirements A graduation date in Fall 2026 or Spring 2027 with a Bachelor's degree (or equivalent) in a relevant field (Computer Science, EECS, Computer Engineering, Statistics) Product engineering expe

Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way. The Community You Will Join: The Data Science team works closely with partners from Design, Product and Engineering across Airbnb’s product portfolio. Our work involves 0-to-1 innovation, applying sophisticated modeling techniques to critical Airbnb problems and finding new ways to leverage science for the good of the Airbnb community. Web prototypers work with Data Scientists to identify key questions during the development of these new solutions and build software prototypes that answer them. The work of DS prototyping covers everything from designing the right data visualization to focused explorations that help solve key design questions to broad explorations that help validate ideas. The Difference You Will Make: This role is focussed on partnering with the Data Science team to develop prototypes that show the potential of new data models targeting critical business and user problems. Step change advances in ML/AI have the potential to transform Airbnb, but doing that well requires not just building the right models, but also creating the right experience -- your work will be critical in enabling us to do that. Sophisticated and impactful models are often complex and hard to understand -- by building effective prototypes you can help close that gap and allow innovation to flourish. Your prototypes will enable leadership to make critical and strategic business decisions by demonstrating technical feasibility, suggesting implementation approaches, enabling user studies, and more. A Typical Day: As a web prototyper, you will create prototypes that enable differentiating and industry-leading produc
