Here, the models you improve power experiences for 50M+ users. Most of our traffic runs on self-hosted, fine-tuned open-weight models. On our internal roleplay evals, our smaller fine-tuned models can outperform much larger off-the-shelf models. Your job is to make them better. You'll join a small AI team led by Marco, our LLM Tech Lead, working closely with our CTO, Product, Web and DevOps teams. You'll work across data, post-training, evals, and model behavior, taking ideas from failure analysis to production. The problems are real: personalization, character consistency, long conversations, better evals, multilingual behavior, and faster training cycles. If you want to shape model behavior at consumer scale, this is the role. Key Responsibilities • Fine-tune open-weight LLMs using SFT, LoRA/QLoRA and post-training methods such as DPO and GRPO • Diagnose model failures and turn them into experiments. Decide whether the answer is better data, post-training, prompting or classifiers • Build training data and evals that directly shape what gets trained next • Improve model behavior across personalization, consistency, tone, multilingual and group interactions • Ship to production and use real user behavior to guide the next iteration • Speed up the training loop so experiments are faster, easier to compare, and more reproducible Your Qualifications • You've personally post-trained open-weight LLMs for a user-facing product and shipped them to production • You've worked where AI was core to the product or business, not an experimental side feature • Fine-tuning is core to your experience • Strong Python, PyTorch and Hugging Face, with hands-on GPU training and debugging • You build data and evals yourself and make decisions from evidence • You can take work beyond notebooks into production • You use AI tools daily in your own engineering work • You are fully comfortable working with uncensored models and explicit NSFW content, including harmful material when developing and evaluating moderation system Bonus points • Experience with conversational AI, roleplay products, or highly personalized consumer AI • Multilingual LLMs • Moderation, safety, or adversarial testing • Multimodal models • Open-source LLM / post-training contributions Why EverAI? 📈 Exponential Growth: From 50M users in 2 years, to 100M next — and 500M beyond 🚀 Track Record of Category-Creating Innovation: We consistently launch world-first AI applications — setting the pace, not following it 🌍 Global Impact: Top-tier user growth, real-world adoption, and cultural relevance 🧠 Proven Leadership: A senior team that's launched, scaled, and exited & IPO'd multiple scale ups — now fully focused on reshaping AI companionship 👥 Elite Remote Team: 100% remote and built to win — world-class talent from Tier 1 tech companies, with a culture of ownership, velocity, and radical creativity 🛡️ Ethical Core: Our AI ecosystem is governed by EverGuard, our proprietary AI moderation technology, ensuring responsible development at scale What We Offer ✍️ Contract Type: We prefer B2B, but we're flexible, what matters is long-term commitment and impact 📍 Work From Anywhere: Fully remote.
