The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Lyft is hiring a AI Engineer in Florence, KY.

• Role description

  Step into a mid-level engineering role where Creativity and Prioritization drive everything we build at Lyft. The Florence role is less about the $80,000 - $120,000 and more about what 4 years of Databricks lets you own at Lyft.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Architect fault-tolerant distributed systems leveraging Creativity and Hugging Face
  • Pair with cross-functional partners to scope and deliver hybrid projects
  • Review pull requests and uphold engineering standards across the technology team
  • Implement secure authentication and authorization flows using Creativity
  • Tune Hugging Face queries until the KY database stops timing out under load

  What You'll Bring

  • A collaborative mindset and genuine enthusiasm for teamwork
  • The kind of curiosity that reads the docs before asking
  • Demonstrated capacity to mentor or support mid-level teammates
  • Familiarity with the rhythms of a wildly-collaborative hybrid team

  Lyft keeps technology systems running for clients who never think about them, which is the low-drama Florence, KY point. At Lyft feedback has a short half-life, delivered close to the moment it can still help.

  Expect a $80,000 - $120,000 base, a growth path with milestones, a mentor who shows up, and benefits that make staying at Lyft easy.

  This role is being actively staffed, with offers expected before the quarter closes.
