About this role
Lead AI Engineer San Francisco, California, United States Hilbert is building a reasoning engine that must navigate non-deterministic user behavior across data silos - turning months-long decision cycles into minutes. Fully agentic by design, our demand intelligence platform doesn't just call APIs; it solves the hard problem of orchestrating multi-step inference over messy, high-stakes enterprise data where deterministic answers don't exist. We're looking for a Lead AI Engineer who can own the technical direction of Hilbert's AI stack, ship production-grade systems hands-on, and elevate a growing engineering team - all with the ownership and urgency of a founder. This is not a "manage from a distance" role. You'll write code, make architecture calls, set the bar for quality and velocity, and build the engineering culture as we scale. You're the person the team looks to when the problem is ambiguous, the stakes are high, and the path forward hasn't been written yet. If you combine deep technical craft with the ability to lead people and communicate with clarity, we want to meet you. Why Hilbert AI Hilbert is building the demand intelligence platform used by world-class B2C leaders - including the world's largest retailer - to unlock compounding growth outcomes. We sit at the intersection of AI, data, and commercial activation for retail and e-commerce. We're scaling fast with top-tier investors behind us. The AI stack is the product - which means engineering leadership here has direct, measurable impact on enterprise customers and revenue. We're a small, talent-dense, low-ego team.
