Are you one of the brightest engineers hungry to apply AI to real-world, frontier-scale challenges? Heres your rare chance to join a world-class, elite team at a rapidly scaling, Sequoia-backed AI startup transforming global electronics and semiconductor design.


About the Client:

Our client is a stealth-mode AI innovator led by Olympiad gold medalists, ex-unicorn founders, Stanford professors and an ex-CTO from a global EDA giant. They already power engineering at 70% of industry leaders, shaping the next wave of chips, cars, automation, and consumer tech.


Key Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain scalable backend systems powering intelligent tools for hardware and electronics design.
  • Construct and manage large-scale data pipelines for the parsing, transformation, and storage of varied data typesincluding images, signals, diagrams, and text.
  • Assist with data extraction, cleaning, validation, and quality assurance across both structured and unstructured sources.
  • Develop and deploy AI-driven applications (using LLM APIs) to automate engineering workflows and accelerate technical tasks.
  • Integrate AI capabilities into software products that span Windows, macOS, and modern web platforms.
  • Collaborate closely with machine learning and engineering teams to efficiently serve models and embed advanced intelligence into backend and frontend systems.
  • Ensure the reliability, performance, and security of backend services, APIs, and the broader data infrastructure.


Tech Stack Highlights:

  • Core backend in Python, with C++, Go, Rust for high performance.
  • Expert-level Unix/Linux systems and scripting.
