About
Not Your Typical Startup
We believe in making small bets, failing fast, and being better together. We are on the lookout for individuals who share our belief in the future of artificial intelligence (AI)—visionary problem-solvers, out of the box thinkers who strive to solve big problems for customers, and early tech adopters driven to achieve success. We don’t hire for fit; we hire to add. We want team members who exemplify our core values and are passionate about AI.
If you thrive in a dynamic setting and are eager to collaborate with a diverse and exceptionally talented team, we want to connect with you!
Our Core Values
Gritty
We are entrepreneurial, determined, and resilient, pushing through challenges to achieve our goals and continuously striving for innovation and excellence in everything we do.
Humble
We listen to data, embrace new ideas, admit limitations, and take ownership to solve problems. We constantly push ourselves to improve and excel.
Agile
We make decisions using “little bets,” creating a safe space to take risks. This process lets ideas fail fast or scale iteratively, allowing us to refine and improve our approach together.
Happy
We ignite passion with a dynamic work environment where tap dancing is encouraged, common sense prevails, and team members find joy in being their authentic selves.
Investing in Our Team
Exponential Growth
You’re joining a fast-paced startup that empowers you to take control of your professional goals. Every full-time employee receives a professional development fund, along with an individual development plan that serves as a roadmap for success.
Uncapped Time-off
Life happens, unexpected events come up, and everyone needs a break. Take the time you need when you need it—guilt-free.
Unmatched Culture
We work with some of the best and brightest in the business. Period. Which means we actually enjoy spending time together. You can be YOU here. From our Slack channels to how we interact in the office—good vibes and humor are always welcome.
Hybrid Work Environment
Team members have the flexibility to achieve goals from home in sweatpants or collaborate in person at any of our office locations across the country. We don’t stick to a 9-to-5 schedule—you set your hours, meet your deliverables, and choose where it all happens.
Competitive Benefits
Full-time, permanent team members can expect a comprehensive benefits package that goes beyond basic health coverage, including matching GRSP, a health spending account, additional mental health services coverage, and more.
The Interview Process
1
Apply
Our talent team will contact you if your application meets most of our criteria—expect a 30-minute video call. If you advance to the next round, you’ll get an email. At this stage, we won’t provide specific feedback.
2
Initial Screening
This is a detailed interview with the hiring manager. For technical roles, there will be a technical interview or assessment. We’ll ensure you’re well prepared and understand what’s ahead. It’s fun, we promise!
3
Interview / Technical Assessment
After the first interview, you’ll move to a virtual panel interview with no more than four people. This stage focuses on handling tricky scenarios and gives YOU the chance to ask insightful questions.
4
Reference Verification
We do these things called references. We know—weird, right? Who would give a bad reference? Well, it’s not about finding the bad—It’s about gathering more data on how to best lead and motivate you.

Background Check
Non-negotiable. All AltaMLers must have a clean and clear criminal background check.
