About zaimler
zaimler is building the next-generation semantic platform that links fragmented enterprise data and extracts meaning with knowledge-distilled models. We’re creating the foundation for AI systems that don’t just generate, but retrieve, link, and reason over enterprise knowledge.
In just over a year, we’ve begun partnering with Fortune 500 design partners in insurance, travel, and technology, deploying our semantic platform into some of the world’s most complex and high-volume data ecosystems. Our platform enables enterprises to make their data AI-ready from the start: automating ontology creation, data mapping, and retrieval-augmented reasoning at scale.
Our team comes from LinkedIn, Visa, Meta, and Branch, and has spent decades solving data and infrastructure challenges at scale. Backed by top VCs, we’re building the next foundational layer for enterprise AI.
About the Job
We’re looking for a Forward-Deployed Engineer to join our founding team and bring our AI-native data infrastructure to life in real-world environments. This is a hybrid role blending infrastructure, product, and delivery—you’ll work across systems, tools, and teams to bring new deployments from concept to scale. Think of it as a "jack-of-all-systems" role: one foot in Kubernetes and Ray clusters, the other in semantic pipelines and user-facing use cases. You’ll be a first responder, architect, and operator—deploying zaimler’s semantic infrastructure into dynamic enterprise settings, collaborating closely with ML and infra engineers, and making sure customers get value from day one.
This role prefers candidates in or aligned to the Pacific Time Zone (PST) & will require travel onsite to customer locations.
