Founding Machine Learning Engineer

About Us

We're a seed-funded AI startup on a mission to bridge the gap between enterprise business knowledge and data. Our goal is to democratize data discovery and curation, preparing organizations for the era of generative AI. Current data tools are overly complex, poorly integrated, and siloed, forcing AI practitioners and data scientists to spend more time wrestling with tools, relying on tribal knowledge, and navigating data lakes rather than doing meaningful data science work.

Our focus is to make enterprise data AI-ready faster, more reliably, and with a stronger foundation of factual semantic knowledge. This leads to more accurate models, superior outcomes, and better business results. Our team of seasoned data infrastructure and machine learning experts have spent the past two decades building bespoke systems to solve these very challenges.
