The Role

• Build algorithms and pipelines that surface insights, detect failure modes and keep agents safe and aligned.
• Own your work fully, across the stack.
• Work on-site with customers to deploy the product.

What You Bring

• 1+ years of experience
• Proficiency across the stack, especially databases, AWS and AI engineering
• Obsessive attention to detail and the ability to lead technical execution
• An exceptional signal: a strong bachelor's degree and/or experience at a top fast-growing startup

• Ability to work in person in San Francisco 5 days a week
