Hey Jared, we spoke when I interviewed about 10 months ago. Since then I became a user and actually used some features as inspiration for an app in the fitness space I was working on.

I just reapplied but wanted to double check if 10 months is past the cooldown policy? Regardless, still a big fan!

PlantingSpace | Full-time | Remote (EU time zone) + Quarterly Meet-ups | https://planting.space

We’re building an AI system for analysts and scientists, based on a fundamentally new approach to reasoning and knowledge representation. Our approach differs from LLMs in that we compose algorithms symbolically to represent complex knowledge, and perform probabilistic computations. This enables the AI-driven application of statistical models to different problems, while providing the user with a verifiable reasoning path, and an assessment of the uncertainty in each answer. We are developing applications for analysis and research in domains such as Finance, Strategy Consulting, Engineering, Material Sciences, and more.

This is an opportunity for senior engineers, product managers and operational leaders to join us, and contribute to shaping a deep-tech product from its earliest stage.

We’re hiring for the following openings:

* Product Software Engineering - Quantitative Modeling

* Bayesian Software Engineer

* Program Synthesis Engineer

* Senior Product Manager

* Technical Project Manager

* Finance Manager - Corporate & Accounting
