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 :)
As an engineering manager, you'd help organize/manage our team toward magical tech. We have an extremely smart and fun team, so will be pretty fun.
Desired Experience
- You have extensive experience as a tech lead or engineering manager for teams of 10+
- You have extensive experience with some high performance language (C++, rust, etc.)
- You’re comfortable optimizing the crap out of a system
- You care about the problem of finding high quality knowledge and recognize how important this is for the world
Example Projects
- Plan quarterly goals, and hold your team accountable on a day-to-day basis for accomplishing them
- Architect how to recreate google-level search over 10 billion pages in 1 month
This is an in-person opportunity in San Francisco. We're happy to sponsor international candidates (e.g., STEM OPT, OPT, H1B, O1, E3).
