Job Description

Among our founding team, we have world-class competitive programmers, former founders, and leaders from companies at the cutting edge of AI including Scale AI, Palantir, Cursor, Waymo, Tesla, Lunchclub, Modal, Google DeepMind, and Nuro.

Building Devin and Windsurf is just the first step—our hardest challenges still lie ahead. If you’re excited to solve some of the world’s biggest problems and build AI that can reason on real-world tasks, apply to join us.

In this role you will: Help build and own core HR operations, including onboarding, offboarding, benefits administration, and employee relations, and keep them running well Design the systems that make this scalable: tracking, playbooks, checklists, and documentation so nothing falls through the cracks Manage US immigration end to end (H-1B, O-1, PERM, green cards) in close coordination with outside counsel.
