Job Description
Exa is building a search engine from scratch to serve every AI application. We build massive-scale infrastructure to crawl the web, train state-of-the-art embedding models to index it, and develop super high performant vector databases in rust to search over it. We also own a $5m H200 GPU cluster and routinely run batchjobs with 10s of thousands of machines. This isn't your average startup :)
Exa is building an API to the world's knowledge unlike any that have ever existed. The people need to know -- through badass demos, tweets, hackathons, API docs, and more. Want to get the world excited about the next-gen of search?
Desired Experience
• You are a strong engineer, and can quickly ship high quality, viral applets in react/node
• You understand the developer community inside and out — you’re deeply plugged into the latest trends, speak the language, and can create technical content and experiences that resonate with the people who matter.
• Built and shipped tools/projects that have gone viral
• You have engineering experience with APIs and care deeply about designing them well
• You're excited to wear many hats (frontend, social media, marketing, support, etc)
• You care about the problem of finding high quality knowledge and recognize how important this is for the world
Example projects
• Create and demo viral applets that showcase how Exa’s search powers next-gen applications — fast
• Create the greatest API documentation of all time -- GPT-4 chat with the documentation is an example interface
• Manage our social media relationship with developers
• Create a banger Exa hackathon
This is an in-person opportunity in San Francisco.
We're happy to sponsor international candidates (e.g., STEM OPT, OPT, H1B, O1, E3).
