AI Technologist I

Chewy • Bellevue, WA

50d

About The Position

You will join Chewy’s advanced technology organization as an AI Technologist I—part of a small team of builders applying the latest advances in AI to create intelligent systems that drive innovation. This is a hands-on role designed for people who love to build—capital B builders. It’s perfect for early-career technologists who want to make real-world impact. You’ll experiment, test, and learn by creating. If something works, you keep going. If it doesn’t, you try again. This is not about big organizational integration; it’s about rapid prototyping and discovery in a fast-moving, focused group. And while your focus will be on prototyping, your ideas have the potential to grow into something much bigger—helping the organization see what’s new and possible.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field—or another field paired with a demonstrated ability to build and apply technology in practice
• Hands-on experience building AI-powered systems and the curiosity to find and frame your own problems to solve
• Proficiency in Python and demonstrated ability to use AI systems in practice
• Strong understanding of experimental design, data analysis, and performance evaluation
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with openness to tapping into the expertise across the company while still working as part of a small, nimble team

Nice To Haves

• Participation in hackathons, open-source projects, or personal side projects that showcase a passion for building
• Contributions to research, competitions, or innovation showcases

Responsibilities

• Embrace a builder’s mindset: test ideas by building—make, break, and rebuild in pursuit of meaningful, intelligent systems.
• Fail fast and iterate continuously
• Identify problems worth solving and take ownership from concept to working prototype
• Thrive in ambiguity—testing and refining ideas through trial and error, and evolving designs based on what you learn
• Work closely in a small, tight-knit team to turn ideas into tangible outcomes
• Bring creativity and technical skill together with the joy of building, experimenting, and learning to craft tools and systems that matter

Benefits

• A place where you can be your authentic self and grow your career
• Work in a culture that cares, with managers who value you and your contributions
• Empowerment to think big, take risks, and deliver results
• Connections with a diverse group of Chewtopians through Team Member Resource Groups and inclusive programs
• Comprehensive medical, dental, vision benefits, in addition to wellness programs and resources
