If you're excited to work on engaging and relevant problems while building something new from the ground up, come join us!
As an AI Support Engineer, you’ll manage and resolve support requests, maintain our knowledge base, and use various tools to troubleshoot issues, ensuring our users have a seamless experience. This role includes a mix of core responsibilities and opportunities for extended contributions.

- Are motivated by customer problems and find joy in creating simple, elegant solutions that avoid unnecessary complexity.
