The listing, marked up

We’re building the inference platform for visual intelligence. We’re a deeply technical team of veteran AI / computer-vision engineers ( 20+ years1 combined, MIT/CMU PhDs) who’ve shipped production ML infrastructure across autonomous driving and LLMs.
We just launched the VLM Run Gateway (https://vlm.run/gateway), a unified API that serves open-weight VLMs, embodied VLAs, ViTs, served across a fleet of GPUs and clouds. That's exactly the infrastructure problem this role will own.
If you’re interested, email us at [email protected] with your GitHub profile and link to projects you’ve recently built - especially with docker, k8s, GPUs.

How this was produced

Highlights are found by rule, not by a model: each one is a phrase matched at a known position, and every note is a template we wrote. The two scores come from a typed-decision model (Jev) that reads the listing against the official role definition and real listings for the same role, and returns probabilities rather than prose — it never writes any of the words on this page, and never chooses what to highlight.

Deterministic penalty applied to the HR score: 20 points (from 56 before penalties). Reviewed 21 Sep 2026.
