About The Position

At Hugging Face, we're on a journey to democratize good AI.

Roles at Hugging Face are very fluid and dynamic -- we are looking for someone who is comfortable taking on different challenges that will evolve over time. In the short term, the focus of this role is to help develop Gradio (www.gradio.dev), a Python framework that lets users build machine learning web apps, and Trackio, a local-first, agent-friendly experiment tracking platform (https://github.com/gradio-app/trackio).
