With over 1 million AI-generated presentations and 6 million AI images created every day, this work operates at massive scale. Your job is to elevate quality, evaluate new frontier models, and push into new capabilities and modalities. This role is about productizing existing foundation models, not training new ones. You'll focus on prompting, evaluating, and fine-tuning for maximum performance across Gamma's product surface. You'll also launch new modalities like voice and video, build the evaluation infrastructure to measure what "good" looks like, and own uptime, latency, and cost across our AI stack. You'll work closely with engineering and product to ship improvements that millions of users feel immediately. You'll thrive here if you're a tinkerer who loves pushing foundation models to their limits and you're equally comfortable writing prompts and writing production code. If you get excited about mixing prompt engineering with software engineering to unlock new AI capabilities, this is your role. Our team has a strong in-office culture and works in person 4–5 days per week in San Francisco. We love working together to stay creative and connected, with flexibility to work from home when focus matters most. ## WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own Gamma's LLM and image prompts, measuring and continuously improving quality at scale across text, layout, and visual generation - Develop complex prompts for new features using AI JSX, balancing creativity with reliability - Build evaluation frameworks for prompts and models, combining quantitative metrics with qualitative feedback to create better test sets - Drive the AI roadmap based on quality gaps, constantly evaluating new frontier models and methods - Curate datasets for fine-tuning open-source models and launch new modalities like voice and video - Own analytics, tracking, uptime, latency, and cost across Gamma's AI infrastructure ## WHAT YOU'LL BRING - Proven track record pushing foundation models to their limits, with hands-on experience building and evaluating prompts at scale - Proficiency in TypeScript and Python, with a software engineering foundation that lets you move fluidly between prompt engineering and production development - Strong data instincts: experience writing evals, designing metrics, and translating qualitative feedback into measurable, actionable improvements - Self-sufficient in gathering and cleaning data to inform prompt improvements and model evaluations - Experience with modern LLMs and image models such as Flux and Imagen (Nice to have) - Familiarity with AI tooling like AI JSX for prompting and Braintrust for evaluations (Nice to have) ## COMPENSATION RANGE: The base salary for this full-time position, which spans multiple internal levels depending on qualifications, ranges between $180K - $300K plus benefits & equity. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including but not limited to experience and expertise in the requirements listed above. If you're interested in this role but you don't meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply anyway! We're always excited about meeting great people. ## About Gamma ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: AI-powered productivity software / presentation and content creation - **Target customers**: B2C (individual creators, professionals) and B2B (teams, enterprises) - **Mission statement**: “We build tools for imagination” – making it easy for anyone to share ideas beautifully and quickly without design or communication expertise. ## Products & Services - **Presentations**: Turn any idea or outline into a polished slide deck; export to PPT, PDF, Google Slides, and more. - **Documents**: Create structured, visual documents (one-pagers, white papers) with AI assistance. - **Websites**: Generate a shareable, hosted website in minutes – no coding required. - **Social Media**: Produce platform-ready social content sized and styled for posting. - **Graphics**: AI design agent for creating custom, on-brand graphics, infographics, and illustrations. - **API**: Programmatic creation for automation, integration, and scaling content. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: $2.1B (as of 2026, per company about page) - **Key Metric**: $100M+ annual recurring revenue (ARR); 100 million total users; over 1 million creations per day - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly disclosed (likely venture-backed given valuation) - **Growth Signals**: Achieved profitability in 2023; rapid user adoption (100M users); expanding from presentations into websites, social, and API; strong B2C viral growth with growing B2B enterprise traction. ## Competitive Advantages - **AI-native architecture**: Built from the ground up for AI collaboration, not retrofitted. - **Multi-format versatility**: One platform for presentations, documents, websites, social posts, and graphics – reducing tool sprawl. - **Viral B2C love + massive B2B opportunity**: Millions of individual users drive organic adoption into enterprises. - **Profitable growth**: Profitable since 2023 while still scaling rapidly, demonstrating unit economics. ## Strategic Focus - **Disrupting the presentation market**: Replacing legacy tools (PowerPoint, Google Slides) with an AI-first experience. - **Expanding the creative layer**: Moving beyond presentations to become the default tool for all modern communication (documents, websites, social). - **Enterprise go-to-market**: Building on viral B2C adoption to capture B2B contracts with features like brand controls, team collaboration, and API integrations. - **Continuous AI innovation**: Leveraging 20+ AI models and constant iteration to improve output quality and creative capabilities. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Described as “warm, a little quirky, and fueled by curiosity” – a team of dreamers and doers that ships constantly. - **Work model**: Hybrid/on-site presence in San Francisco (primary hub) and New York; many roles listed as “San Francisco” or “New York” with on-site expectation; some remote flexibility may exist for certain roles. - **Notable perks**: Being part of a profitable, high-growth unicorn; working on a product used by 100M people; opportunity to shape the future of AI-powered communication. - **Engineering culture**: Heavy emphasis on AI, data science, and product design; roles include AI Engineer, Research Engineer, Site Reliability Engineer, and UI Engineer. ## Sources 1.
