About ModelML Model ML is an AI tool that speeds up research and due diligence
for the financial sector: investment banks, family offices, private equity,
VCs etc. We're two brothers both building our second YC company. Arnie
previously built Fancy (S17), raised ~$6 million in funding, and later sold to
Gopuff. Chaz previously built FatLlama (S17), raised ~$15 million in funding,
and later sold it to Hygglo. We LOVE building cool stuff in HUGE markets.
About the Role Full-stack / Backend Engineer Skills: Backend: Python, FastAPI,
Celery, Redis, AWS, Docker (optional) Note, if you have used other Python
Frameworks e.g. Flask/Django, or if you know python and are killer with
node/golang backends, that can also work. Frontend: Nextjs / React, Typescript
Fundamental knowledge of LLMs: embeddings, RAG, vector databases etc... We are
mainly looking for a profile with strong backend (and solid infra/devops)
experience. However, given that we are still in the early stages, we are open
to hiring a "generalist" if you impress us! You will be the third engineering
hire, with full ownership over our backend business logic and architecture.
You will also help grow our team culture and will work closely with the
founders (obviously!). What It Will Be Like It won't be easy; in fact, it will
be very hard. BUT, it will be a lot of fun. You will be directly involved in
shipping incredible software to our customers, and you will see it make a
difference in their daily lives. You need to be comfortable in being
uncomfortable; timelines will change, priorities will most likely shift Be
prepared to sacrifice your work-life balance in exchange for joining an
incredible journey and learning a lot along the way. Our Process We're very
conscious of everyone's time, so we want to make the process as efficient as
possible. Call 1: 20-minute intro call with Arnie/Chaz If you proceed: Call 2:
20-minute follow-up with whoever you didn't speak to first Call 3 (if
required): 10-15 minute call to deep dive into specific areas if deemed
necessary. Your Application If you apply, we'd love for you to tell us about
the most impressive thing you've ever built in place of a cover letter. As
well as this, please include your: GitHub URL LinkedIn URL Tech stacks you are
comfortable with (please grade them 1-5, with 5 being the best known)
