OUR TEAM

This is an opportunity to join a high-growth, seed-stage AI startup founded by experts in the field (Ben Vigoda, Steve Papa), with patented, leap-frog real-time learning AI technology. You'll work closely with exceptional AI researchers and software engineers, with the autonomy to make high-impact, strategic decisions that shape our core architecture.

You'll work alongside exceptional AI researchers and engineers, with real autonomy to shape how that architecture evolves.

This is a hands-on, AI-native engineering role. You'll need to subscribe to agentic-led development. You'll use agentic coding tools daily, including managing multiple parallel coding sessions, to move quickly through a complex and fast-chan
