Founding AI Engineer (US Citizen only) | Full-Time

About Drift

Drift is an AI-powered copilot for robotics simulations. We help robotics developers set up, debug, and run simulations using natural language integrating seamlessly with ROS, Gazebo, and other simulation tools. Our mission is to democratise robotics development by reducing simulation time from months to days.

About the Role

We're hiring our Founding 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

Min 2+ years of engineering 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 ROS, Gazebo, or robotics simulation
Background in developer tools, CLI applications, or IDE extensions
Familiarity with evaluation and benchmarking for AI systems

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.

This position is open to US citizens only.
