Job Description

About the Company:
Our client is building foundational infrastructure for the next generation of AI applications. While many modern platforms are optimized for traditional spreadsheet-style analytics, they fall short when it comes to handling the petabytes of complex, multimodal dataimages, video, audio, and textthat cutting-edge AI relies on. As a result, teams often find themselves bogged down by brittle data infrastructure rather than focusing on core research and product development.

Founded in 2022, our clients mission is to make querying any type of data as intuitive as working with tableswhile still being powerful enough to handle production-scale workloads. Their open-source engine is designed specifically for real-world AI systems, managing GPU clusters, coordinating with external APIs, and handling edge cases that traditional data engines cant support. Their technology is already used in production by major companies in e-commerce, autonomous vehicles, AI research, and cloud-based services.
