Founding Engineer - Applied AI

Engineering Agent Workflows

Design and implement core workflows and infrastructure for hardware engineering agents, including intelligent context management, novel indexing approaches, and advanced data structures.

Build agents that can interpret, reason over, and manipulate complex engineering design data, integrating with enterprise-grade engineering tools and systems.

Work closely with customers and the engineering team to deliver AI-powered workflows that are reliable, intuitive, and trusted in production environments.

Move Fast, Learn Fast:
Prototype rapidly, validate ideas with real users, and ship frequently. Help Shape the Company:
Influence engineering culture, architectural decisions, and the product's future.

We are intentional with our time. We work hard on meaningful problems and protect our personal time, because working together is a privilege. We care deeply about our people, our customers, our product, and our craft. Success is defined by our customers' success and our team's professional growth. We want you to thrive, physically, mentally, and professionally, while solving some of the most meaningful and complex problems in the physical world.

We’re hiring a world-class Applied AI Engineer to build the core systems behind their automation engine for hardware engineering. You will design, implement, and post-train AI agents that power critical product development workflows for global enterprise customers, working on novel AI systems that retrieve, interpret, and manipulate complex engineering design data, integrating deeply into real-world engineering environments. This is a deeply technical, high-impact role.

You will be among the first technical hires and will own mission- critical systems end-to-end. The problems are ambiguous, the constraints are real, and the expectations are high. If you move fast from idea to production, care deeply about customer experience, and want to build foundational AI infrastructure for the world's most impactful industries, this role is for you.
