About the role

The challenges we're tackling are the ones that define enterprise-scale AI systems:
Freshness: ensuring data is always current, since stale results immediately erode user trust.
Memory: designing structured, retrievable memory so agents can behave reliably over time, not just like short-lived chatbots.

Design and own critical services: hands-on development of systems that are robust, scalable, and simple to operate in production.
Lead high-impact architectural decisions, balancing speed with sound engineering for 3-4 9s availability.
Collaborate with leadership and product teams to translate ambitious ideas into reality, fast.
Act as a technical leader: mentor engineers, drive engineering culture, and shape the way we build as we scale.
Proven ability to design and run cloud services at scale with high availability (3-4 9s).
Demonstrated technical leadership: shaping architecture, influencing design, and guiding teams through complexity.
This is an opportunity to help build one of the next foundational companies in AI and data infrastructure, with the resources and runway to match.

Experience with AI/ML systems or integrating LLMs into production (retrieval pipelines, memory systems, agent frameworks).
