About us 👇🏼

lemlist is the sales engagement platform that gives sales teams the unfair advantage they deserve.

Bootstrapped since day one, we’ve grown from 0 to $35M ARR in 6 years, without raising a single dollar.

We’re looking for a Data Scientist / AI Engineer to join our team. You'll be responsible for identifying and shipping AI use cases that have a direct impact on the product and the business, working closely with Product and Engineering teams.

Your main mission will be:

• Identify where AI can create leverage across the product, propose concrete use cases, and take ownership from problem framing to production.

• Design, develop, and maintain LLM-based systems: prompt engineering, orchestration, retrieval pipelines, evaluation frameworks, observability…

• Deploy and operate AI models and infrastructure, including GPU server management and model serving.

• Design, train, evaluate, and maintain Machine Learning models in production.

• Built a solid evaluation and observability layer across multiple LLM systems in production.

• Improved significantly the AI culture within lemlist.

• Supported the C-level (CEO, CPO, CMO, Head of Sales…) for strategic decisions.

What’s in it for you?

• Work in a profitable, bootstrapped, and high-growth company that doesn’t rely on external funding to live.

• Work on high-impact projects with highly skilled data profiles composed of a Senior Analytics Eng, a Senior Data Engineer and a Data Analyst that directly drive business decisions
