About Faire
Faire is a technology wholesale platform built on the belief that the future is local. Independent retailers around the globe collectively represent a multi-hundred-billion-dollar wholesale market that has historically been fragmented and offline. At Faire, we're using the power of tech, data, and machine learning to connect this thriving community of entrepreneurs across the globe. Picture your favorite boutique in town — we help them discover the best products from around the world to sell in their stores. With the right tools and insights, we believe that we can level the playing field so businesses can grow and local communities can thrive.
We’re looking for smart, resourceful and passionate people to join us as we power the shop local movement. If you believe in community, come join ours.
About the role
Faire is building the future of wholesale, connecting independent retailers with the brands that will define their stores. At the heart of this mission is Compass — Faire’s user facing AI bet within the Discovery Pillar — building an always-present, context-aware retailer assistant along the enagement journey. Compass helps retailers make smarter buying decisions by combining Faire’s rich proprietary data with agentic AI and web search, and is increasingly able to take action on retailers’ behalf.
As a Senior Applied AI/ML Scientist on the Compass team, you will be the science and technical lead for this product — driving agent quality through data, evaluation, and modeling, while shipping product features end-to-end with high velocity. This is a deeply hands-on individual contributor role: no direct reports, keyboard first. You will set the data-grounded direction for how the assistant works, while also being a full-stack (AI, ML, backend) builder who turns ideas into shipped
