Software is eating the world, but AI is eating software. We live in unprecedented times – AI has the potential to exponentially augment human intelligence.

  • Strong engineering background: a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, or another quantitative field or equivalent strong engineering background.
  • 2+ years of engineering experience, post-graduation 
  • Strong coder with demonstrated proficiency in programming languages such as Python, Java, C++, TypeScript/JavaScript, or similar
