Looking for ML / AI opportunities. Honestly just need a healthier place to work.
Bit of a weird post, but here goes.
I’m a Machine Learning / AI engineer with experience building and shipping production AI systems end to end. I’ve worked on LLM pipelines, RAG systems, FastAPI microservices, vector databases, AWS SageMaker deployments, backend systems, and production ML infrastructure. Worked at startups and fast-moving teams where ambiguity was normal and you just figured things out. Also worked on a government-funded cancer recurrence research project and have experience across BERT, XGBoost, OpenAI, Gemini, and production deployment workflows.
Reason I’m posting. I recently joined a new role on a contract basis and honestly, I’m realizing pretty quickly it’s not the right fit. The environment feels rough. Founders publicly scolding people during scrum calls, everyone overloaded, very little bandwidth to onboard or help, and that weird feeling where people protect work because they’re already drowning in dependencies. I get startups are chaotic. I actually enjoy chaos. But there’s a difference between moving fast and burning people out.
So if anyone knows teams hiring for ML Engineer, AI Engineer, Applied AI, GenAI, or backend-heavy AI roles, remote or Bangalore preferred, I’d genuinely appreciate a referral or even pointing me in the right direction.
Happy to share resume, GitHub, LinkedIn, whatever helps.
