Job description

New York, New York, United States Deepcheck

We are a product-led growth company thats leading the open-source effort of test-driven machine learning. Weve recently released a Python package for testing ML Models during the training phase (https://github.com/deepchecks/... ), and are offering a complementary solution for enterprises that are looking to validate their ML Systems throughout their lifecycle: during training, production, and re-training.

AI systems are being adopted by more and more organizations and are taking an increasingly important role in their business. Although many resources are allocated to creating and optimizing the machine learning models, they still lack common sense and make various mistakes that may go undetected for long periods of time. We focus on detecting, preventing, and fixing these AI glitches, using mathematical concepts and algorithmic research.

Our R&D offices are in Tel-Aviv, and were beginning to build our go-to-market team in the US.
