AI / ML Engineer - Known
Pear VC, San Francisco
The role
You’ll be the technical founder driving the machine learning and AI backbone behind Known — an intelligent, compatibility-driven dating platform that blends psychology, data, and human-like conversation. You’ll design and ship the systems that make Known feel magical: personalized matching algorithms, adaptive recommendation loops, and natural voice/LLM-based interactions that help users connect meaningfully.
You’ll work closely with the founding team (product, platform, and design) to shape both the data and ML foundations and the user-facing experiences that differentiate Known. This is a hands-on role with ownership across research, prototyping, and production deployment.
