AI Engineer/Scientist - Staff

Seekr builds trusted AI for mission-critical decisions. Our platform helps organizations build, govern, and deploy secure, explainable AI rooted in their own data across cloud, on-premises, edge, and air-gapped environments. We care deeply about transparency, auditability, and defensibility because high-stakes AI is only useful when people can understand and trust how it behaves. 

The first wave of AI was about scale. The frontier now is reliable AI: systems that are not only capable, but understandable, testable, and dependable in real decisions. At Seekr, explainability is not a reporting layer added after deployment; it is a core product and research problem spanning attribution and interpretability, observability, and contestability. This role sits directly in that high-impact space, helping turn state-of-the-art ideas into production capabilities customers can trust. 

We are open to candidates from either research scientist or engineering backgrounds. Success in this role requires strength in one domain, and working proficiency in the other. 

Duties and Responsibilities 

• Design and build explainability capabilities that help users understand why a model or agent produced a given output and what training data, retrieved documents, tools, agent interactions, or internal model mechanisms influenced that result.
• Design and build contestability capabilities that enable users to challenge AI outputs, capture corrective feedback, and turn contested results into data that improves systems over time.
• Work on adjacent high-impact areas such as hallucination detection and mitigation, and continual-learning agents that can learn from explainability signals and contested outputs.
• Translate and synthesize promising ideas from current literature into prototypes, and translate validated prototypes into production-grade features.
• Contribute across the AI system lifecycle where needed, including model development, inference, deployment, and monitoring.
• Partner with product, design, and customer-facing teams to make explainability useful in real workflows, not just technically interesting.
• Use AI coding assistants effectively and reliably as part of a modern engineering workflow while maintaining strong judgment and code quality.
