Senior Applied AI/ML Engineer
Confido, New York, New York
The role
Build the core AI behind Confido — and get your hands on an unusually rich, messy dataset: hundreds of thousands of documents across dozens of sources and hundreds of layouts and contexts, much of it beyond what any system reads well today.
As a Senior Applied AI / ML Engineer, you'll own AI problems end to end — research, prototyping, production, and the evaluation that keeps probabilistic systems reliable — across document understanding, forecasting, and agentic workflows.
Location: New York, NY (Relocation supported)
What you will do
-
Build LLM systems that turn complex, inconsistent financial documents into clean, typed, validated data — the backbone the rest of the platform runs on
-
Design agentic workflows that retrieve and reason over fragmented enterprise systems, with the eval harnesses and guardrails to run them in production
-
Build and improve demand forecasting across thousands of intermittent series — classical time-series and gradient-boosted models, with rolling-origin backtesting and best-fit selection
