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 We're building the product function that packages Liquid AI's technology into repeatable solutions for enterprise customers. You'll join our Product team and work directly with our technical leadership to define, package, and bring to market repeatable AI solutions.
