* Co-founder/CFO @SoftOne (exited) Your Role Most LLM roles stop at experimentation. 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
