- Our agents already power production systems at companies like 11x https://www.letta.com/case-studies/11x and Bilt Rewards https://www.letta.com/case-studies/bilt, learning and improving every day.
- We're assembling a world-class team of researchers and engineers to solve
- You like stability, and get stressed out when there's nobody telling you exactly what to do. We look for people that thrive in ambiguity and can intuit the most important problems by talking to customers and dogfooding our product.
