Senior/Staff Software Engineer, Vectara

The company, which emerged from stealth in 2022, leverages large language models (a type of AI algorithm) to determine the intent behind queries, with the aim to bring meaning to search - and hence generate more relevant results. The platform can be quickly integrated to site and app searches, enhancing product discovery, user navigation, and more.

With substantial funding at its back, Vectara has launched both a free-to-use "Growth" product, and paid "Scale" version that enables additional features such as cross language search. As AI cements itself as the "future of search", the company should be afforded plenty of opportunity to grow alongside it, and should be one to watch as it develops in the coming years.
