Frontier AI companies are increasingly bottlenecked on expert judgment and high-quality data workflows. This team builds the production systems that capture, coordinate, and validate that work at scale — directly between a customer request and the output that ships.
These are long-running, stateful systems. A single job can stay live for days, interleaving automated steps, model inference, and expert review. A step marked “done” can be reopened, re-reviewed, and redone — so “completed” is not always final, state has to tolerate late mutation, and correctness has to survive humans and models disagreeing with each other.
This is a backend systems and orchestration problem: distributed state machines, not pipelines. The architecture is not set. Early engineers will decide what it becomes, and the loop between “I shipped this” and “this mattered” is short.
