About Drift

Drift is the world's first AI copilot for robotics simulations. We help developers set up, debug, and run simulations using natural language, integrating seamlessly with ROS, Gazebo, and the broader simulation stack. Our mission is to democratize robotics development by reducing simulation time from months to days.

About the Role

We're hiring an AI Engineer. You'll work directly with the founders to architect and build the core systems that makes Drift intelligent.

This isn't a role where you'll be handed specs. You'll be in the room shaping what we build and how we build it.

What You'll Work On

Improving & implementing the Agentic capabilities of Drift
Building context systems that pull relevant information from documentation, codebases, and past interactions
Developing validation and error-correction mechanisms for generated scripts and workspaces
Creating internal tooling for debugging agent behavior and measuring improvements
Designing feedback loops that help the agent improve over time

What We're Looking For

Experience in Software and AI based systems
Strong proficiency in TypeScript and Python
Experience building LLM based applications - agents, copilots, or similar systems
Deep familiarity with prompt engineering, RAG, and context management
Systems thinking - you can design how pieces fit together, not just implement them
Comfort with ambiguity and ownership; you'll be defining the roadmap alongside us

Nice to Have

Experience with developer tools, CLI applications, or IDE extensions
Familiarity with evaluation and benchmarking for AI systems
Experience with Robot Operating System (ROS) and robotics simulators.

Why Join Now

You'll be one of the first engineers at Drift, with real ownership over the technical direction. The problems are hard, the scope is wide, and you'll have direct impact on everything we ship. If you want to build tools you'd actually use yourself and make robotics development about innovation, not configuration this is the role.

This position is open to US citizens only.
