Contributing to the successful deployment of the company’s solutions by supporting customers with technical documentation and questions.
REQ: PhD or foreign equivalent in Computer Science, Computational/Applied Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, or Computer Engineering + 3 years of post- graduate software engineering experience, particularly with products involving machine learning technologies, including TTS and ASR systems and language identification; large language models and ontological development; and DRL/theory of deep learning. Required experience must include advanced linear algebra, optimization/approximation theory, and statistics; software system architecture (design principles, code & code quality principles, software deployment, and continuous integration); Advanced Python, Jupyter Notebooks, and Bash; and deep learning frameworks (SKLearn, MxNet, TensorFlow and PyTorch). Must also have 2 years of experience as an Engineering Manager or similar, overseeing R&D activities and leading software development teams of at least 20 PhD-level applied researchers in the AI space, and including experience with program management, delivering end-to-end, multi-month/year, cross-functional deep technical programs. Experience can be concurrent. Send cover letter w/resume to: I. Arel at Tenyx, 455B Portage Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94036 or via email: itamar@tenyx.com. No calls.
Who we are
First and foremost, we are a team of researchers and engineers passionate about building truly intelligent machines. Our conviction is that intelligent machines will pave the way to addressing some of humanity's greatest challenges; from drug discovery and education to climate change. We are pursuing a pragmatic roadmap delivering significant improvements to existing AI capabilities which will endow machines with the ability to solve problems that are currently considered beyond the scope of AI technologies.
Tenyx is led by the founding team behind Apprente, which developed the world’s first voice-based AI solutions to automate the order-taking process at drive-thru restaurants. Apprente was acquired by McDonald’s Corporation and subsequently by IBM. The seasoned leadership at Tenyx includes Dr. Itamar Arel, a former professor of AI and CEO at Apprente, and Prof. Ron Chrisley, an established AI researcher and head of the Cognitive Science program at Sussex University. Among its advisors are renowned AI and neuroscience researchers, including professors Noah Goodman, David Eagleman and Shaul Druckmann all from Stanford University.
Our focus
Our initial product focus is on utilizing our groundbreaking research outcomes to build the next-generation of intelligent voice-based agents using our proprietary neuroscience-inspired AI technology. Leveraging our novel technological capabilities, Tenyx will deliver platforms that allow customers across multiple industries to rapidly deploy automated solutions that will dramatically reduce operating expenses while vastly improving both service levels and the overall customer experience.
