You might spend some of your time creating beautiful 3D renderings on our web app. You might spend some of your time implementing optimization algorithms and AI pipelines. This is a role for engineers who love wearing multiple hats and working problems end-to-end. You will be part of a talented, interdisciplinary engineering team helping build an AI platform from the ground up.
