NYC Applied AI (In-Office)

Howdy! 👋

We're building a small, agile AI-focused team in New York City — integrating state-of-the-art and open source AI models across our entire product ecosystem, including Beeper.

We believe breakthrough AI applications come from rapid iteration, deep collaboration, and being shoulder-to-shoulder when solving hard problems. This team will work in-office, daily, and focus on speed and results.

We need product managers who can navigate the intersection of AI capabilities and real user needs. Engineers who can ship AI features that work at scale across multiple products. Designers who can make complex AI interactions feel simple and delightful.

Both our existing products and our AI models span multiple languages and frameworks. The AI landscape moves so fast that no single person can hold it all in their head. We're looking for exceptional talent—people who are among the best in their craft. But equally important is the willingness to drop into unfamiliar territory and quickly learn and adapt.

We want to work with you if:

• You’re an experienced PM, engineer, or designer.

• You’ve shipped AI-powered products that real people use.

• You’ve worked on other ambitious projects like this.

• Complex technical challenges energize rather than intimidate you.

Please reach out below and tell us about yourself. Tell us why this project matters to you. And tell us in detail about relevant experiences and skills that you can bring to make AI-powered communication a reality.

About Automattic

Now in our 20th year, we’re the people behind WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Tumblr, Simplenote, Jetpack, Longreads, Day One, PocketCasts, Beeper, and more. We believe in making the web a better place.

We’re a distributed company with more than 1400 Automatticians in nearly every corner of the globe, speaking over a hundred different languages. Enriched by this diversity, we’re united by a singular mission: to democratize publishing, commerce, and messaging so anyone with a story can tell it, anyone with a product can sell it, and everyone can manage their communications from a single source. In short, we help maintain a balance in society, creating and continually refining powerful tools people can use to compete fairly—regardless of income, gender, politics, language, or where they live in the world.

We believe in Open Source, and the vast majority of our work is available under the GPL. Automattic is a Most Loved Company and Disability Confident Committed. (Here’s what that might mean for you.)
