About You
You’re a strong engineer across backend and infrastructure (Python, Go, TypeScript, etc.) with a deep interest in agentic AI.
We care more about what you’ve done, not how long you’ve been doing it.
You’ve been a founding engineer, founded your own company, or had a major impact at a top-tier company, and you’re ready to join an early-stage team.
You are motivated by ownership, impact, and building frontier tech.
Your work is a craft you want to master.
You thrive in ambiguity and love hard problems.
You appreciate diverse perspectives and uncommon ideas.
You are excited about building in-person, 5 days a week, from our office in One World Trade.
What We're Looking For
4 – 10 years in engineering; 2–3+ years experience with
Strong background in building scalable systems
Comfort with core ML/LLM concepts — post-training, evaluation metrics, reward modeling — deep enough to partner with researchers, not just consume their output
Ability to lead in ambiguous, fast-moving environments with sound technical judgment
Proven ability to coach engineers and drive execution
Strong ownership mindset with pragmatic decision-making
