    GLENDALE, CA / CAD DESIGNER/MODELER / FULL-TIME

    Are you ready to feel the impact of your craft and help us revolutionize the world of robotics?

    At Giant.AI, we are focused on finding solutions to one of the greatest global challenges to the next few generations. We are a growing team, led by some of the industries' best scientists and engineers who share a deep passion and expertise in Robotics, Deep Learning and Computer Vision. We are backed by some of the top VC's, including Gates Frontier (Bill Gates' investment fund) and Khosla Ventures with real-world customers who are excited about our technologies. 

    ROBOTICS ON A PLANETARY SCALE IS NOT JUST OUR TAGLINE BUT OUR NORTH STAR TO WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO. 

    OUR CO-FOUNDERS:

    Founder, CEO Dr. Adrian Kaehler has a long history of innovation: he has been an inventor on many patents, as well as the author of numerous technical papers and articles in a variety of subjects ranging from particle physics to biometrics to architecture to robotics. He has led projects in a wide variety of technical domains including commercial, industrial, and military and ranging in scope from boutique to global scale mass production, on land, in the air, in space, and under the oceans.

    Co-Founder Dr. Chris Cianci holds undergraduate degrees in Physics (Occidental College, 2001) and Electrical Engineering (Caltech, 2003), and completed his doctorate on Distributed Robotics at L'Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne in Switzerland (2009). He has done extensive work in robotic autonomy, ranging from autonomous vehicles to one of the first consumer autonomous home vacuum cleaners, shipping millions of units worldwide. When forced to drive himself (because the self-driving cars aren't quite ready yet), he can often be found traveling in a 1974 MGB that he is in the process of restoring himself.
