Overview
Join Jito Labs as an Applied AI Engineer to optimize workflows across the company. You'll work closely with teams to identify and solve high-leverage problems, driving significant technical decisions and shaping the roadmap. Jito builds the market layer of Solana. We run the validator client behind a majority of the network's stake, JitoSOL, BAM, and JTX. About 40 people. Ops, legal, finance, marketing, business development, and product each have well-understood, expensive workflow problems that a strong engineer could solve in a week, and today those problems sit unowned or get picked up as side work.
What You'll Do
- •Work with the CEO and teams across the company to find the highest-leverage work.
- •Own the cross-cutting investments no single team will prioritize, and build for the teams that can't build for themselves.
- •Scope, build, secure, roll out, and maintain applications.
- •Collaborate with Security from design time forward.
What We Offer
- •High ownership: every team member drives significant technical decisions.
- •Fast execution: we ship rapidly and iterate based on real-world feedback.
- •High quality bar: we don't trade details for speed.
What We're Looking For
- •Three to five years shipping and operating production services.
- •Experience with LLM and agent tooling.
- •Buy-first instincts with the range to build.
- •Ability to extract real workflows and ship usable solutions.
- •Judgment about team needs and restraint in tool adoption.
- •Security at design time by reflex.
- •Self-directed prioritization and operational ownership.
