The Engineering Team at Lilt

Our Story
Our founders, Spence and John met at Google working on Google Translate. As researchers at Stanford and Berkeley, they both worked on technology to make information accessible to everyone. They were amazed to learn that Google Translate wasn’t used for enterprise products and services inside the company and left to start a new company to address this need – Lilt.
At its core, Lilt has always been a machine learning company since its incorporation on March 6, 2015. At the time, machine translation didn’t meet the quality standard for enterprise translations, so Lilt assembled a cutting-edge research team tasked with closing that gap. While meeting customer demand for translation services, Lilt has prioritized investments in Large Models, believing that this foundation was imperative to the future of enterprise translation.
Lilt is an equal opportunity employer. We extend equal opportunity to all individuals without regard to an individual’s race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, ancestry, national origin, physical or mental disability, medical condition, genetic characteristics, veteran or marital status, or any other classification protected by applicable local, state or federal laws. We are committed to the principles of fair employment and the elimination of all discriminatory practices.
