About the company
We’re building the scientific intelligence platform for the physical world, to accelerate breakthroughs in semiconductors, batteries, advanced materials, aerospace, and beyond. These industries represent trillions in spend, but are still trapped in outdated software. We’re changing that by building the intelligence layer to help scientists and engineers move faster and solve core problems – R&D through manufacturing.
We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to create a category-defining company at the intersection of AI and the physical sciences. And we’re building a world-class team to do it.
We recently raised a seed round led by Greylock, with participation from Neo, BoxGroup, Liquid 2, and top angels including Jeff Dean + leadership at OpenAI and AMD. Our team (ex-Applied Intuition, Glean, SpaceX, Warp, Jane Street, Verkada) works in-person in San Francisco. Our office is located walking distance from 4th and King Caltrain station.
What you’ll do:
•
Architect and own complex customer-hosted cloud deployments that run scalably and reliably across diverse customer environments.
•
Triage, debug, and resolve high-severity issues end-to-end, building bulletproof automated safeguards and observability to permanently prevent regressions.
•
Design fully automated, repeatable deployment pipelines with deep observability to proactively surface edge cases before they hit production.
•
Drive developer velocity and build internal tooling that empower the engineering team to ship fast without sacrificing reliability or security.
