Member of Technical Staff

About the Role

We’re looking for a Member of Technical Staff to shape how we build and what’s possible, whether that means exploring new tech stacks, optimizing infra, or prototyping weird but brilliant ideas. You might be a former technical founder or a CTO who loves building leverage for others, or someone who excels at bringing zero-to-one ideas to life.

If you thrive in the unknown, move fast, and can architect, prototype, or scale systems depending on the day -- this would be the perfect role for you. You’ll be a key contributor in shaping our technical foundation, supporting other engineers, and unlocking velocity for the entire team.

Responsibilities

• Own critical infrastructure and technical architecture decisions
• Prototype new ideas, tools, and internal systems — often with no roadmap
• Identify bottlenecks in our stack and build systems that multiply team productivity
• Partner with engineers and researchers to explore new capabilities, enabling rapid prototyping and experimentation
• Contribute to defining engineering best practices and technical direction
• Contribute to or lead the development of open source tools and infrastructure components
• Identify bottlenecks across our dev stack and create systems that multiply team velocity

You might be a fit if

• You’ve been a technical founder, staff engineer, or CTO in fast-paced environments
• You’ve built or contributed to open sourced tech with real-world adoption
• You think in systems and love building high quality infrastructure that enables others to build faster and better

What makes us interesting

• Small, elite team of ex-founders, researchers from top AI Labs, top CS grads, and engineers from top companies
• True ownership You will not be blocked by bureaucracy, shipping meaningful work within weeks rather than months
• Serious momentum We're well-funded by top investors, moving fast, and focused on execution

What we do

• Ship consumer products powered by cutting-edge AI research, and
• Build infrastructure that facilitates research and product, and
• Innovate cutting-edge research that will open up new consumer product forms

The Details

• Startup hours apply
• Generous salary, with additional benefits to be discussed during the hiring process
