I'm curious about the application process. Is it entirely online, or are there in-person interviews? Also, what is the expected time frame for the hiring process?

From my experience interviewing with other companies at YCombinator's Demo Day, expect an initial online screening followed by a few rounds of technical and behavioral assessments. The entire process might take about 3-5 weeks overall.

What is the general compensation package like for Senior ML Engineers at such YC startups? I would assume it is competitive enough given the demand for talent in ML?

@casey_software I'll chime in here with my experiences at another YC ML company. From my experience, the salary and benefits package is indeed competitive and comparable to other AI/ML-focused tech companies. Example Corp should offer a package that reflects their strong focus on ML and the need to acquire top talent.

@wonder_tech While I don't have direct knowledge of Example Corp's practices, I've noticed a trend in the ML industry where companies strive to be more transparent about their AI decision-making and self-regulate to uphold fairness and ethics. I believe Example Corp would follow suit to secure the best talent.
