Exa is building a search engine from scratch to serve every AI application. We build massive-scale infrastructure to crawl the web, train state-of-the-art embedding models to index it, and develop super high performant vector databases in rust to search over it. We also own a $5m H200 GPU cluster and routinely run batchjobs with 10s of thousands of machines. This isn't your average startup :)
As an engineering manager, you'd help organize/manage our team toward magical tech. We have an extremely smart and fun team, so will be pretty fun.
Desired Experience
You have extensive experience as a tech lead or engineering manager for teams of 10+
You have extensive experience with some high performance language (C++, rust, etc.)
You’re comfortable optimizing the crap out of a system
You care about the problem of finding high quality knowledge and recognize how important this is for the world
Example Projects
Plan quarterly goals, and hold your team accountable on a day-to-day basis for accomplishing them
Architect how to recreate google-level search over 10 billion pages in 1 month
This is an in-person opportunity in San Francisco. We're happy to sponsor international candidates (e.g., STEM OPT, OPT, H1B, O1, E3).
