  • Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or related STEM field
  • Strong backend fundamentals (Python, Java, C# or C++)
  • Solid understanding of OOP and system design principles
  • Bonus: experience working with AI/ML systems or high-throughput production environments

Benefits & conditions

  • Work on real, production-grade AI systems operating at scale
  • Exposure to complex, regulated industries with meaningful impact
  • Strong growth trajectory with significant investment backing
  • High ownership, fast-moving engineering culture
  • Competitive compensation + equity

For the average American, housing and healthcare account for ~40% of household spending.
