  • Ability to discuss model capabilities, inference requirements, and integration tradeoffs with technical buyers
  • Proven success managing long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles and closing strategic landmark deals
  • Strong negotiation skills across pricing, licensing, and custom commercial terms

  • Collaborative and dynamic work environment

Values:

  • Obsessed: We are a frontier research lab. The science has to be right, the understanding deep, the product beautiful.
  • Low Ego: The work speaks. The best idea wins, no matter who said it. Credit is shared. Nobody is above any task.
  • Bold: We take the ambitious bet. We ship, we do not wait for conditions to be perfect.
  • Kind: People over politics. We treat each other with genuine warmth. Agency without empathy creates chaos.
