About the Role

We are building a new AI infrastructure product in stealth.

The work sits at the intersection of algorithms, code transformation, program analysis, and AI systems.

We are looking for a Founding Software Engineer to design and build the core technical system from the ground up. This is a zero-to-one role with significant ownership over architecture, implementation, and technical direction.

You do not need to have previously worked as a compiler engineer. We care more about strong problem-solving ability, engineering judgment, and experience building complex, correctness-sensitive software.
