Pulse Job Posting

Pulse is tackling one of the most persistent challenges in data infrastructure: extracting accurate, structured information from complex documents at scale.

• Layout understanding with specialized component detection models
• Low-latency OCR models for targeted extraction
• Advanced reading-order algorithms for complex structures
