Junior Research Scientist

About EliseAI

We're improving the industries that matter most: housing and healthcare. Everyone needs a place to live and access to quality healthcare, yet both are often harder to secure than they should be. By integrating AI agents deeply into existing workflows, we make them more efficient, reduce costs, and improve the experience for everyone.

About The Role

EliseAI invites top-tier professionals in Machine Learning and adjacent disciplines to join our team. This position is perfectly suited for individuals with a robust mathematical and quantitative foundation—this includes, but is not limited to, mathematicians, theoretical physicists, and computer scientists—who are eager to apply their knowledge to tangible challenges. As a junior research scientist at EliseAI, you will join a fast-moving team of world-class researchers engaged in groundbreaking research on machine learning and large language models, developing predictive models to advance our AI capabilities, and much more.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and refine machine learning architectures optimized for advanced conversational flow
• Conduct comprehensive analyses to support decision-making and improve the effectiveness of our AI solutions
• Apply advanced mathematical and machine learning techniques to solve specific problems such as optimizing tenant engagement strategies, predicting tenant behavior, and improving customer interaction processes
• Stay abreast of the latest research in machine learning and AI, and apply innovative approaches to improve our products
• Work closely with cross-functional teams, including engineering, product development, and data science, to integrate and deploy machine learning models
• Move at rocket speed, build something massive. We’re scaling fast, solving real client problems with precision and ambition.

Requirements

• Ph.D. in Mathematics, Theoretical Physics, Computer Science, or a related field
• Strong foundation in machine learning algorithms, statistical analysis, and data modeling
• Demonstrated ability to apply analytical thinking and problem-solving skills to real-world challenges
• Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, R, or similar, with experience in machine learning libraries and frameworks
• Willingness to work in person at our office 4-5 days a week

Why Join

• Growth and impact. It’s not often that you can get in on the ground floor of a funded (unicorn!) startup that’s scaling so fast. That means that instead of following a playbook, you’ll be writing it.
• Every single day you will be challenged to identify how we can scale and execute on it. You’ll learn what works when you succeed and what doesn’t when you fail. Either way, the rest of the team will be here to support you.

Benefits

• Competitive salaries
• Medical, Dental and Vision premiums covered at 100%
• Completely paid parental leave
• Commute benefits
• 401(k) benefits
• Fitness & home services stipend to cover part of your expenses so you can focus on what matters
• A collaborative in-office environment with an open floor plan, fully stocked kitchen, and all meals covered in the office
• Unlimited vacation and paid holidays

Job Compensation

The salary range for this role is $150,000 - $230,000. EliseAI offers a competitive total rewards package which includes base salary, equity, and a comprehensive benefits & perks package. Exact compensation inclusive of salary and any bonuses is determined based on a number of factors including experience and skill level, location and qualifications which are assessed during the interview process.
