About Us

At Diffbot, we believe that access to structured information will be the critical resource for the coming wave of intelligent applications—for everything from new app experiences, to search assistants, to enterprise business intelligence.

That’s why our team of world-class AI engineers is building a machine that can autonomously synthesize the world’s largest database of structured information and looking for those that want to join us on this mission.

Machine Learning Engineer

Machine Learning Engineers in our applied division design and build massively scaled systems that power the core of Diffbot’s autonomous knowledge extraction system--the Diffbot Knowledge Graph. You’ll work with some of the world’s most premier researchers in their field, both at Diffbot and in academic AI labs, to implement state-of-the-art models in our production datacenter.

Application tip: To help your application stand out, include a note in the cover letter box! All notes will be read by an engineer on our team and this is your chance to tell us exactly how you would improve the Knowledge Graph if hired as a fellow engineer. You can access the Knowledge Graph for free at https://app.diffbot.com/get-started

What you need to know about the San Francisco Tech Scene

San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area attracts more startup funding than any other region in the world. Home to Stanford University and UC Berkeley, leading VC firms and several of the world’s most valuable companies, the Bay Area is the place to go for anyone looking to make it big in the tech industry. That said, San Francisco has a lot to offer beyond technology thanks to a thriving art and music scene, excellent food and a short drive to several of the country’s most beautiful recreational areas.

Key Facts About San Francisco Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 365,500; 13.9% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Google, Apple, Salesforce, Meta
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, cloud computing, fintech, consumer technology, software
  • Funding Landscape: $50.5 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Bessemer Venture Partners, Greylock Partners, Khosla Ventures, Kleiner Perkins
  • Research Centers and Universities: Stanford University; University of California, Berkeley; University of San Francisco; Santa Clara University; Ames Research Center; Center for AI Safety; California Institute for Regenerative Medicine
