Job Description

Kensho is an Artificial Intelligence company that builds solutions to uncover insights in messy and unstructured data that enable critical workflows and empower businesses to make decisions with conviction. Our products are powered by state-of-the-art Machine Learning techniques that allow customers to unlock insights faster using Artificial Intelligence, including voice-to-text transcription, data extraction from documents and natural language processing that gives computers the ability to comprehend and analyze human language.

Our Document Intelligence team is a group of outstanding ML practitioners that aims to extract, structure, and understand the information contained inside unstructured documents.

The team is building state-of-the-art ML solutions for a wide range of complex problems, including information extraction from document text and tables, document layout analysis, optical character recognition (OCR), and more. These solutions power our customers’ data operations (including S&P Global’s), and serve as the foundation for Kensho’s natural language processing products, such as NERD and Classify.

The Document Intelligence team works closely with the Data, Product, Backend & Frontend teams, and has the full support of our ML operations and Infrastructure teams.

We are currently seeking a Senior ML Engineer to help accelerate our model development cycle and continually raise the standards of prototyping, building and maintaining state-of-the-art ML solutions.

At Kensho, we believe in flexibility-first, and give our employees the opportunity to work from where they feel most productive and engaged (must be in the United States). We also value in-person collaboration, so there may be times when travel to one of our Kensho hubs (NY/DC/MA) will be required for team meetings or company events.

Kensho states that the anticipated base salary range for the position is 175k - 250k. In addition, this role is eligible for an annual incentive bonus and equity plans. At Kensho, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their role and compensation decisions are dependent on the facts and circumstances of each case.

What You’ll Do

  • Design, build and maintain scalable production-ready ML systems for document understanding tasks
  • Collaborate closely with other ML engineers to build ML pipelines for data processing, training, inference and evaluation
  • Actively participate in the ML model lifecycle, from problem framing to deployment and monitoring in production
  • Work with unique proprietary datasets of millions of unstructured documents
  • Work closely with Product, ML Operations, Backend & Frontend teams to deliver ML-based solutions to customers
  • Mentor and lead other ML Scientists and Engineers to help make our team even more awesome!

Who You Are

  • Are an expert in document understanding, information retrieval, OCR, or a related domain
  • Have 3+ years of significant, hands-on experience with ML/NLP (e.g., designing, shipping, and maintaining production systems) 
  • Are comfortable with modern tools for building ML pipelines, including data processing, training, inference and evaluation
  • Have expertise in Python and Python-based ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch or TensorFlow)
  • Demonstrate effective coding, documentation, and communication habits
  • [optionally] Have published in top-tier journals & conferences in document understanding, information retrieval, OCR, or a related domain

Technologies We Love

  • ML: PyTorch, DGL, HuggingFace, XGboost, Weights & Biases
  • ML models: graph neural nets, document-aware transformer models (LayoutLM), object-detection image models (Detectron)
  • Deployment: Airflow, Docker, AWS

At Kensho, we pride ourselves on providing top-of-market benefits, including:

- Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance 

- 100% company paid premiums

- Unlimited Paid Time Off

- 26 weeks of 100% paid Parental Leave (paternity and maternity)

- 401(k) plan with 6% employer matching
