Job description

Today, we stand at the dawn of a new era: the AI era. AI is the fastest-growing sector in the history of mankind. However, today, the development and application of this new AI world is predominantly in the hands of men. And, historically when products and services were made by men, they were designed with men in mind. Our workplaces, our products, our services, our technology, our roles in society, and much more, have been predominantly male-oriented and naturally did not directly address or reflect the specific needs of women.

That reality led to creating several significant societal gaps. Given that women have not achieved parity across many dimensions over the past 2000 years of our history, why do we think we will be better off as we embark on this new digital AI age? We won’t unless we women take ownership of shaping it. Finally, the power and promise of AI technology can be applied toward accelerating women's inclusion and progress towards balance.

Uplevyl has developed an AI technology platform that accelerates women’s potential in the workplace and beyond, through the creation and leveraging of the world’s largest, curated, women-specific data sets.
