About TypeSafe

We’re building prod, not god. TypeSafe is an AI lab pushing frontier model intelligence in a new direction, starting with System One Models. We combine the reasoning of LLMs with the reliability of code, for truly trustworthy AI. Our first model, Jev, launched in September 2026.

While others chase leaderboards, we’re rebuilding the LLM stack from first principles to make models smarter and also dependable enough to run in production. We’re a small, fast team backed by an $870M Series A led by a16z. Made in SF, with love. Come join the frontier.

  • Support data transformations, analytical models, and BI workflows

  • Take ownership, collaborate well, and adapt to changing requirements
  • Are excited about our mission and working on a small team

We are hoping that you
