Job Description

Quora, a leading knowledge-sharing platform with over 400M monthly unique visitors, is seeking their first AI Automation Engineer to spearhead the implementation of AI across their organization. This remote position offers a unique opportunity to shape how Large Language Models (LLMs) become integrated into daily operations at a company that's at the forefront of AI innovation.

The role combines technical expertise in AI/ML with practical software engineering, requiring 5+ years of full-stack development experience and strong skills in Python, React, and JavaScript. As the pioneer in this position, you'll be responsible for developing and maintaining internal tools that leverage AI to automate work processes and increase productivity across the company.

Working at Quora means joining a company with two major products: the traditional Quora platform and Poe, their AI chat platform that integrates various language models including GPT-4, Claude 3, and Gemini Pro. The company operates on a remote-first basis, offering flexibility while maintaining strong collaboration through core coordination hours.

The position offers competitive compensation ($155,656 - $225,160 USD + equity) and comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage, equity refreshers, and remote work reimbursement. This is an ideal opportunity for someone who's both technically skilled and business-minded, capable of identifying high-impact problems and implementing AI solutions that deliver real value.

The role requires a unique combination of technical expertise, business acumen, and collaborative skills. You'll need to be comfortable working with sensitive data, managing multiple projects simultaneously, and staying current with the latest AI developments. The position offers significant autonomy and the chance to shape how a major tech company utilizes AI internally, making it perfect for someone who wants to be at the intersection of AI innovation and practical business application.
