About Liquid AI
Spun out of MIT CSAIL, we build general-purpose AI systems that run efficiently across deployment targets, from data center accelerators to on-device hardware, ensuring low latency, minimal memory usage, privacy, and reliability. We partner with enterprises across consumer electronics, automotive, life sciences, and financial services. We are scaling rapidly and need exceptional people to help us get there.
The Opportunity
As an Applied ML Engineer on the Japan team, you will own the technical path from a customer's problem to a deployed AI solution. You will work directly with technical teams at leading companies in Japan and collaborate closely with Liquid's research, model, inference, and product teams in Japan and at our US headquarters.
The center of gravity for this role is deployment: making models perform reliably in the environments where customers actually need them. Depending on the problem, that may also require post-training, careful evaluation, inference optimization, or changes elsewhere in the ML system. Your expertise will shine across these boundaries.
You will join a growing Japan organization, with the autonomy to own important customer work and the backing of the teams building Liquid's core technology. This is an opportunity to shape how a
