About the role

We are WisdomAI.

We exist to help people unlock clarity from complexity.

WisdomAI builds AI-powered analytics that put answers directly in the hands of the people closest to the business. Our platform doesn’t just surface insights — it explains the why behind them, helping teams move from data to decisions with speed, confidence, and context.

We’re trusted by companies like Cisco, Patreon, and Rubrik — and we’re just getting started.The problems here are hard, and the expectations are high. Our team is energized by both. If you’re compelled by ambitious problems, high standards, and meaningful ownership, you’ll thrive here.

About Wisdom

WisdomAI has the mission to provide access and insights from data to everyone. We believe in the power of data to drive better decisions and we believe with Generative AI, there is an opportunity to bring a disruptive change in how employees access insights within their organization. This is a great time to join the company as we have multiple Fortune100 companies as paying customers and still are early enough that you will get to define a lot of the product/engineering roadmap.

Role

We are looking for a backend/infrastructure engineer to join our founding team. We are working on building ML and data pipelines, which can be efficient, secure and highly scalable by design.

Job responsibilities

  • Build large scale data pipelines to handle latency critical analytical workloads.
  • Work with modern cloud infrastructure to build cost efficient and scalable systems.
  • Work closely with customers and founders to define the product and engineering roadmap.
  • Shape up the engineering culture and tech stack for the company.

Qualifications

  • Experience working on large scale data pipelines.
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or related field.
  • Experience working in startup/fast paced teams is highly desirable.

Our CRAFT

CRAFT isn’t a list of aspirational values. It’s how we hire, how we promote, how we resolve hard calls, and how we stay honest with ourselves.

C — Customer trust. Everything starts here. We listen carefully, act with integrity, and respond with urgency. Delight is downstream of trust — never the other way around.

R — Relentless on outcomes. We move with urgency, take initiative, and see things through. Effort isn’t the measure — results are. If something isn’t working, we change the approach now.

A — Authenticity. We say the hard things, directly and with respect. We also show up as full humans. That combination is how trust is earned and how we grow together.

F — First principles, grounded in reality. We don’t accept “that’s how it’s done.” We strip problems to what’s actually true and build up from there — then validate quickly and let real-world results decide.

T — Transparency. We share the why, not just the what. When something can’t be shared, we say so. We’re one team — information flows so we can do our best work and challenge each other when we’re wrong.

Equal opportunity employer

WisdomAI is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law. We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive team where everyone can do their best work.
