At Klaviyo, we value the unique backgrounds, experiences and perspectives each Klaviyo (we call ourselves Klaviyos) brings to our workplace each and every day. We believe everyone deserves a fair shot at success and appreciate the experiences each person brings beyond the traditional job requirements. If you’re a close but not exact match with the description, we hope you’ll still consider applying.

At Klaviyo, we believe the future of software lies not in productivity tools for human users but in software that can run and optimize itself based on outcome or reward metrics. We’ve built the infrastructure and application that serve as the interface between businesses and consumers. We now have over 200,000 customers, billions of consumer profiles, and hundreds of billions of customer messages and follow-on conversion data. We have a big opportunity to build state-of-the-art AI and machine learning technologies at Klaviyo to power our products and develop AI agents that can automatically create and execute marketing or customer experiences, strategies, and campaigns for any business.

You will apply cutting-edge techniques from deep learning, language modeling, recommender systems, and more to integrate artificial intelligence into our product and bring customers value. You will be a contributing member of the team, learning from experienced engineers and helping to set the standard for excellence.
