About Act

There are over 5 billion users using basic applications today such email, notes, tasks, calendar and they're not AI-native. Our mission is to build proactive applications for anyone in the world, who are not used to complex prompting. We aim to bring intelligence to conversations, errands, organising and workflows, with minimal to no prompting.

Our first application is an agent-first mobile communication app. We believe building applications that users use daily for communication, coordination and collaboration needs will help integrate AI into their lives. The net effect is to eliminate misinformation, achieve low coordination costs, enable high quality tasks and collaboration at scale with minimal or little prompting.

 
Role
  • Build and deploy AI features using LLMs, tool calling and agent workflows

  • Develop prompting, context management, memory and orchestration systems for multi-step tasks

  • Build backend APIs and integrations that connect AI models with applications and external tools

  • Develop evaluations to measure task completion, response quality and system reliability

  • Debug model outputs, tool failures and agent behaviour using production logs and evaluation results

  • Improve response latency, inference costs and reliability of AI applications

  • Work with engineering and product teams to develop, test and release AI features

 
Requirements
  • 3+ years of software engineering or machine learning engineering experience, including building AI applications

  • Strong Python programming skills and experience developing production backend systems

  • Hands-on experience with LLM APIs, prompting, tool calling and agent workflows

  • Understanding of LLM capabilities, limitations, inference and context management

  • Experience evaluating AI outputs, debugging failures and improving model-driven workflows

  • Knowledge of APIs, databases, asynchronous processing and distributed systems

  • Experience deploying, monitoring and maintaining production applications

 
Nice to Have
  • Experience with RAG, embeddings, vector databases and retrieval systems

  • Experience with open-source models such as Llama or Qwen and inference frameworks such as vLLM

  • Experience with model fine-tuning using PyTorch or JAX

  • Experience building AI-powered consumer applications, particularly messaging or productivity products

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
