We’re hiring a Product & Operations Associate as an early member of the operations team at a fast-growing AI company focused on video data.

What we’re looking for
Excellent general problem-solving skills and comfort with ambiguous, open-ended work
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical field
Willingness to work in person at the San Francisco HQ (this is not a remote role)
Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally with technical and non-technical teams
Nice to have
At least 1 year of hands-on software engineering experience
