Developer Experience Engineer
About Thinking Machines
The mission of Thinking Machines is to build AI that extends human will and judgment. We are training frontier models with Inkling, developing Tinker to let people make models their own, and crafting interfaces that broaden human-AI communication. We believe the future worth building is human, and we're hiring people who want to build it.
About Tinker
Tinker is our fine-tuning API that empowers researchers and developers to customize frontier AI to their needs — opening access to capabilities that have previously been concentrated in a handful of labs. We manage the infrastructure while allowing Tinkerers full flexibility in training open weights models with their own data, algorithms, and for their own needs.
About the Role
We’re hiring an engineer focused on developer experience to build Tinker while using Tinker — working hands-on with real users and turning their challenges into product improvements. You’ll write and update cookbook recipes, add library features, prototype integrations, and ensure users can customize models smoothly.
This role is a bridge between Tinker users and our teams. You’ll surface user patterns
