AI Product Engineer (Applied AI)
What We're Building:
We have been quietly building the foundational layers of our Physical AI Scientist platform:
🤖 Physical AI that can operate scientific instruments with human-level dexterity.
🧪 Scientific AI that can analyze results, reason about next steps, and close the loop autonomously.
This is an incredibly ambitious mission, but we believe that a team of ambitious people with high ownership can accomplish incredible things.
The Team:
We’re a team of passionate, mission-driven engineers from companies like Tesla, Amazon, SpaceX, and Neuralink. We’re collaborative and love moving fast, both with our product and on team trips skiing or go-karting!
As a team, we love nerding out about engineering and robotics — plus other topics like race cars or cooking. We like learning new things and then sharing our new knowledge with each other.
Our team is opinionated and straightforward. We don’t mind intense discussions about design tradeoffs. If we have arguments or miscommunication, we resolve conflicts quickly and empathetically.

Help us build our Scientific AI tools for customers and accelerate the pace of scientific discovery
Develop agentic workflows that plan, execute, and verify multi-step tasks
Ship customer-facing features end-to-end, from prototype to production

Let's talk if you have:
3+ years of experience shipping real software in production
Practical experience building AI-driven workflows into products
Professional experience building and scaling production systems, including APIs, data pipelines, and distributed services
Strong Python and/or Typescript skills
Strong product instincts: ability to scope, iterate, and deliver under ambiguity
