Looking for a handful of AI/ML researchers & engineers to round out the founding team of one of the most promising AI for science companies I have come across. In a sea of AI startups, here are a few things that separate us: 1/ Pushing the frontier of multimodal learning beyond text + image. 2/ A mission that matters, in a massive market. Not just exciting tech + science. 3/ Building an environment that attracts the very best people to come and do seminal work.

Plus Plus helps founders identify and hire the scientific, research and engineering talent to build the coming generation of AI-first businesses. We choose clients with a mission we find inspiring, a market we believe in, and hard problems that attract deep thinkers. We invest in our clients, aligning long-term interests. We take a high-touch, research-intensive approach. We are infinitely curious, allowing us to go where others cannot. We are passionate about organizational design and everything that goes into crafting high-performing teams. People we work with attest that we operate at a different level.

A tale of many pivots, from "Yelp for people," to a local business messaging platform, to a service industry recruiting network :) We had many amazing people on our team, whom I hold in high regard and care about deeply. Finding and working alongside them was one of my great privileges and successes. I learned a ton about consumer app design, marketing, and engineering, and had a lot of fun working different muscles after many years in enterprise software. We had the great fortune to work with sharp and supportive backers from Greylock and Sierra, alongside an outstanding cast of angel investors.
