@iaindunning super cool! I hope you find some great folks
Iain Dunning@iaindunningNew role! We're adding people to our LLM team, ASAP. We already build some of the best models of markets. For LLMs, one must ask in 2026, why another one? We think we have a (unique) story, and are hiring for the full training stack - pre-to-post. Big resources, big ownership.
@iaindunning I'm always curious as to what these positions entail. While I did see some of the videos/podcast, it doesn't go in depth a ton. Do you have any pointers to learn more or are you open to chatting sometime so that I can learn more about what these roles look like?
