ASAPP’s AI Engineering team is seeking an enterprising, talented, and curious machine learning engineer. The AI Engineering team is responsible for working closely with the research and modeling teams to create state-of-the-art NLP models for specific tasks, and deploy them in a production setting designed to serve our customers at scale.
