Rebuild how the world works, to make institutions work better for the people they serve.
Brain Co. builds AI-native operating systems for large, regulated institutions. Each system is built for a specific industry, powered by agents that push real workflows forward. Underneath it all is Atlas, our proprietary platform that keeps customers in control, secure by design, and never locked into one model.
Brain Co. is entering its next phase of production deployments on a national scale with an elite team built from Palantir, Google, Meta, and Nvidia, and a growing footprint across government, insurance, health, and financial services.
Joining now means shaping both the company and a new category of applied AI. Every project here ships to production and is expected to create measurable customer value and impact.
You'll work alongside exceptional peers on some of the hardest problems in applied AI. It’s the kind of work you'll still be proud of in ten years from now.
As an AI Product Engineer at Brain Co., you will play a pivotal role in building and deploying state-of-the-art software solutions to automate various real-world problems. You will work directly with the customer to develop the product spec and building from zero. From designing robust front-end interfaces to developing scalable back-end systems, you will turn research breakthroughs into practical solutions for various nation states. This role is your opportunity to make a significant impact by making AI technology both accessible and influential.
Innovate and Deploy: Design, develop, and deploy advanced software solutions that integrate AI to tackle real-world problems, particularly in automating complex, manual processes in government and industrial sectors. Utilize modern web frameworks, microservices architecture, and cloud computing to build applications that apply AI to intricate optimization challenges.
Make a Big Impact: Interact directly with key customer stakeholders to apply pioneering AI solutions while working alongside experienced ex-founders, government officials/ministers, AI researchers, and engineers. Understand complex business challenges and deliver software solutions powered by AI. Join a dynamic team where ideas are exchanged freely, and creativity flourishes. You will wear many hats: software development, product management, sales, and interpersonal skills.
Optimize and Scale: Build scalable data pipelines, integrate industrial sensor networks, optimize application performance and reliability, and prepare systems for production. Engage in projects including but not limited to optimizing the world's most advanced energy production systems, modernizing core government workflows, or improving patient outcomes in advanced public healthcare systems.
Learn and Lead: Stay abreast of the latest developments in software engineering and AI. Participate in code reviews, share knowledge, and set an example with high-quality engineering practices. Mentor junior engineers and lead by example.
Make a Difference: Monitor and maintain deployed applications to ensure they continue delivering value across various governments worldwide. Work directly with customer engineers and SMEs to develop and tune applications that optimize their workflows and deliver tangible upside. Your work will directly impact how AI benefits individuals, businesses, and society at large.
