Who We Are

At TwelveLabs, we are pioneering the development of frontier multimodal foundation models that can see, hear and understand the world as humans do. Our models have redefined the standards in video-language modeling, allowing developers to build programs with state-of-the-art semantic search, summarization and analysis capabilities.

TwelveLabs has raised $107 million in Seed + Series A funding from world-class VC & corporate partners: NVIDIA, NEA, Radical Ventures, Index Ventures, Snowflake and Databricks. Our advisory team features AI visionaries and founders such as Fei-Fei Li, Silvio Savarese, Alexandr Wang and more. Headquartered in San Francisco, with an influential APAC presence in Seoul, our global footprint underscores our commitment to driving worldwide innovation.

About The Role

As a Machine Learning Engineer at TwelveLabs, you will drive our ML systems + platform engineering efforts in all facets of our e2e research & engineering workflows. Scaling our training, inference, and evaluation systems — all while improving the reliability of our model deployments / operations / versioning / etc. — is the essence of the role. This role is a perfect fit for senior engineers who get excited by the prospect of advancing the State of the Art in vision-language modeling by perfecting ML systems and infrastructure!

In This Role, You Will:

• Advance our industry-leading enterprise video solutions by incorporating already-great research into fault tolerant, low latency e2e systems

• Scale multimodal AI/ML systems for video understanding

• Deliver industry leading applied research solutions to problems like VLM finetuning, auto-labeling of video-text datasets, and model-based filtering of said datasets to optimize (end-)model performance

• Build the highest impact, not the flashiest, libraries and services

You May Be A Good Fit If You Have:

• 2+ years of relevant industry experience

• Strong Python coding skills

• Experience with modern ML frameworks (i.e. PyTorch, Tensorflow)

• Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail

Strong Candidates May Also Have Experience:

• With at least one statically typed language (we use Golang)

• Building 0-to-1 mission critical AI/ML applications from scratch

• Optimizing model inference (TensorRT, ONNX, Triton Inference Server)

• Working with FFmpeg or other high performance image/video processing libraries

Interview Process

1) Recruiter Phone Screen

2) Initial Technical Assessment

3) Hiring Manager Interview

4) Onsite Technical Interview [In-Person]
