Software Engineer

We build AI technology for the metals industries. Our products work reliably in high-volume production environments 24/7, making billions of dollars worth of decisions.Because we work at the intersection of metals industries and AI, we solve problems involving manufacturing operations, physics and chemistry, software engineering, AI, and product design.Our teams spend a lot of time on site, with the customer, understanding their problems first hand and iterating quickly to solve them.We try to work with minimal process and permission, but ample support and collaboration. We rarely have a scheduled meeting, but we all work in the office, discussions occur continuously throughout the day, and no request for help goes unanswered for more than a few minutes. Features get shipped to production every day. Many are designed, developed, and shipped on the customer’s site, without a central planning process.CandidatesFor all roles, we are looking for people with the following attributes:Exceptional ability.
