Fast Track Your Application

Think about the ICP for ContractKen. Sign up for a trial plan, experience the product and provide feedback on how to improve the current experience of the product to add immediate value to the ICP. We don't need you to fully code any feature in its entirety and are not looking for free work. The idea is to identify folks who get** what we are trying to do with ContractKen and find faster alignment with the right candidate.

Do not apply if

You're looking for your first, real-world model building, ML/AI role. We believe that deploying existing models (open source and proprietary) in production and delivering real business value to our customers is 10x more important than hyperparameter tuning or the latest algorithm implementation. While we'd love to entertain experienced ML data scientists, the emphasis on MLOps is as much as it is on experimentation.
