Founding Software Engineer in San Francisco - Athina AI

Skills: Node.js, Python, React, SQL Overview: Athina is building an IDE to enable the development of AI-powered products. We are on a mission to build the new stack for AI product teams. This means defining how teams will prototype, experiment, train, evaluate and monitor GenAI products. The next decade will enable AI-powered products and features that are radically different from the software we have been building until now. This is an open-domain unsolved problem, and we’re looking for tinkerers, hackers, and creatives who want to build the toolkit for the next decade of software. The role: Minimum requirements: Min. 5+ years of experience as a SWE Strong frontend + backend skills (if you're more frontend or backend-leaning, that's fine!) Experience creating complex software systems from the ground up A strong IC who is a self-starter and can work independently Ideal requirements: You are excited about GenAI and are tinkering and hacking You are excited about the challenge of figuring out unsolved problems Based in SF, or willing to relocate (on-site but flexible working) Start-up or founding engineer experience is ideal Experience with AI is a plus but not a hard requirement What we look for: We're a small team, so we’re looking for someone who can tackle complex problems end-to-end. The job is not to write code. We are looking for someone to create a product that solves the problem and delights users! What you'll be building: GenAI development is an open-domain problem and requires a lot of creativity, tinkering and experimentation. We require a strong work ethic, and in return we promise you the same. Problems we're solving: How to generate, curate and annotate data for training and testing How to evaluate complex AI products How to prototype and test complex AI agents Stack: Postgres DB (Node.js + Typescript) API server (Python) Workers for running evaluations and background jobs (Python) Open-source evaluations library (React.js + Typescript) Frontend #J-18808-Ljbffr
