Internal deployment & tooling · Evidence for this classification:

team is the de facto ML platform team at Kensho. Our team’s mission is critical: empower our ML engineers with state-of-the-art processes, tooling, and infrastructure to iterate quickly, build reliably, and identify potential production issues early. We sit at the intersection of infrastructure and ML, and work closely with all our ML teams (ML Product teams, R&D, …) and our infrastructure teams (Core Infra, SRE, Security). We are a small and high-leverage team: our work practically touches every AI project at Kensho. We balance pragmatic platform development with hands-on exploration at the frontier: building agentic applications ourselves, contributing to open-source tools, and defining what a mature agentic platform looks like before the industry has settled on the answers. You’re equally likely to find us at a top ML conference (NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML) and at major software and infra
