About the role

Fast-moving team. Big problem. We need someone who ships. Emrex AI runs inference across a portfolio of 12+ language models — ranging from small, fast, cheap local models to large frontier APIs — and the routing logic that decides which request goes where is currently hand-coded rules that break every time we add a new model. You'll redesign that routing layer as a learned system: a classifier that predicts the optimal model for each request based on task complexity, latency budget, cost constraints, and quality requirements. You'll build the evaluation harness that continuously measures model-task fit, and you'll maintain the online learning pipeline that keeps routing decisions current as model capabilities shift. This is a technical architecture role with direct product impact. Every routing improvement translates to measurable cost reduction or quality improvement across 40M+ inference calls per day. We run weekly architecture reviews and expect this engineer to drive the technical roadmap for the routing layer.

Fully remote.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement a learned routing system for multi-model LLM inference
  • Build the evaluation harness that measures model-task fit across routing decisions
  • Maintain online learning pipelines that adapt routing as model capabilities change
  • Partner with ML teams to define task complexity signals and quality metrics
  • Own the routing layer SLA and incident response

Requirements

  • 5+ years ML infrastructure or applied ML engineering experience
  • Strong Python skills with LangChain and FastAPI
  • Experience with LLM inference pipelines at scale
  • Familiarity with multi-armed bandit or contextual bandit approaches is a plus
  • Ability to own a technical domain end-to-end with minimal supervision

Benefits

  • Fully remote
  • Top-of-market compensation with equity
  • $8,000 annual GPU compute credits for personal research
  • Health, dental, and vision coverage
  • Quarterly engineering offsite
