How we detect a first ML / AI hire

We classify every posting title into one of 41 role families. ML / AI covers: ml engineers, ai engineers, applied scientists and research scientists. We keep the full history of families each company has ever posted.

  • Observed: the family appeared on a board where we had previously recorded postings and never saw this family.
  • Inferred: on the first crawl of an established board (postings older than 60 days), the family has only 1–2 roles, all posted in the last 21 days.

Currently 689 ML / AI roles are open across 112 companies — see all companies hiring ML / AI.
