You're excited to build a product and invent a market that hasn't existed before. You read documentation first and are not afraid to ask for help when uncertain.

What we're looking for
4+ years software experience in Python
Proficiency with live data streaming and real-time analytics, (Kafka/Pulsar/InfluxDB)
Experience in AWS cloud infrastructure and services
Experience migrating services to Rust for improved performance and reliability
Experience with Kubernetes and tools for orchestration
What we provide
Opportunity to shape an early-stage, mission-driven startup and revolutionize how Enterprises use Computer Vision AI
Professional growth at a fast-growing, venture-funded start up with a proven founder and leadership team
Competitive salary and meaningful equity for early team members

Why bet on Computer Vision and Safari AI?
Huge opportunity hiding in plain sight: leveraging already-installed cameras to automate and real-time action on operational data
Already the market leader in enterprise CV by working with industry leaders with billions in revenue
Large chasm between customer knowledge and market availability, i.e. customers don't know what is available in the market...yet.
Early leader in computer vision; everyone is small and unbranded (i.e. no Amazon or Google in the room to compete with)
Very modular, allowing Safari AI and its customers to invent whole new use cases on a regular basis
Developed the tech and data pipelines over three years and invested several million dollars and is now ready to scale
