🚀 About Spine AI

Spine AI helps companies build AI copilots for their products. Spine’s AI agents work across both documents and APIs, enabling a conversational interface to do anything the product can, and more.

🌟 About You

As a founding engineer, you will be expected to uphold the founding team’s core values:

3. Communication: Strong communication is required to work through ambiguity and showcase clarity of thought when interacting with customers and the team.
4. Ambition: We are building a rocket ship and want to bring on board people who seek out challenges and want to excel.
