The opportunityWe are a stealth VC-backed startup building from the ground up a new AI system capable of autonomous superhuman reasoning of the world. We innovate across the entire AI stack, including at the foundational layer. Our work is built on 3 (and counting) technical breakthroughs from proprietary research that enabled a new type of foundation model with entirely new capabilities.
We are seeking a technical engineer with broad skills to join our mission as we push the boundaries of what’s possible today, specific to visual pattern reasoning. You will conceptualize, build, maintain, and operate systems that discover novel insights about the physical world, which translates into billions in savings for our customers.
Who we areOur team is composed of AI pioneers and leaders from Google X, Google Brain, and Unity. Several of us are repeat founders, with deep commercialization insights across multiple enterprise segments. We enjoy long, deep ideations around entirely unexplored AI use cases in the Earth Sciences.
LocationWithin 3 hours in time zones from CA.
What you’ll work onExpect to multi-task across:
- Building out a new data analytics product targeting large enterprises, with rigorous requirements for product specifications
- Develop, train, and optimize multi-modal foundation models on novel objectives
- Scalable data engineering for large models
- Strategize product designs based on customer insights
- Build and own our go-to-market product
Who you are- Curious: constant urge to learn new things
- Not afraid of leaving your comfort zone
- Enjoys research and rapid experimentation
- Creative: track record of solving hard, unsolved problems
Technical skillsBroad technical foundation in software engineering and deep learning (through self-study, practical experience, or PhD)
