Sales Engineer

Scaled Cognition is an AI model lab building Super-Reliable Intelligence for the enterprise. The company's flagship model APT delivers human-like conversational fluency while eliminating hallucinations — powering AI agents that follow policy and take action when the stakes are real: bank balances, medical records, flight changes, insurance claims. Scaled Cognition's platform includes the model, agentic tooling, simulation and evaluation frameworks, and live agent monitoring. Founded by Dan Klein, a UC Berkeley professor of AI, and Dan Roth, who together built and sold one of the first agentic AI companies to Microsoft.
