About Trellis: Trellis is one of the only modern, searchable, and aggregated sources of state trial court filings around, and we are actively expanding to include Federal court dockets as well. If you have never before tried to search state court dockets, you probably aren't aware of how difficult it is to find what has been filed in public court cases. Trellis is filling the gap and modernizing the space. Our customers range from solo practitioners to some of the largest and most prestigious law firms in the country.

I am happy to answer any questions here, or via Discord DM (ss1515)



> At least 7 years of backend engineering experience, at least 3-4 of which were spent building products using LLMs.

Seeing as the largest, most popular LLM only came out <2 years ago and penetrated the consciousness of the tech sector, what kind of candidate are you actually looking for?


They don't know the difference between LLM and ML. I can only imagine their hiring process.


Our CTO said he ideally wants to hire someone who has been working with LLMs since before they blew up 2 years ago; i.e. someone who has been working in the space since around GPT-2.


Tall order, but a large budget for the role would improve your odds; what's the rough salary range?


I honestly don't know, I am just a mid-level who wanted to post the job application here to make sure it is seen by the Hacker News crowd. If it were up to me, a salary range would be included in the job posting.


Wouldn't it make more sense to look for outstanding results (projects built, articles published) rather than time spent with a technology?
