I'm Yarik, cofounder and CTO. Before this I spent 20 years in tech with 10+ years running infra, ML and search teams at Google, Meta and Apple.
We love maps and build location/businesses APIs for AI apps and agents. If ChatGPT tells you a restaurant is open and it actually closed in March, that's the problem we fix. We check whether a business still exists, whether its hours and details are right, and enrich it with what's being written about it on the web (news, articles, events). Customers get all of it through one API and we solve it for them with our models which use all available sources and ai voice agents which can confirm the information.
You'd be one of the first engineers. Some weeks that's search and ranking, some weeks it's data pipelines or evals, some weeks it's the API or something a customer asked for yesterday. You'll have a big say in what gets built, not just how.
Stack: Python, FastAPI, Postgres/PostGIS, DynamoDB, Redis, AWS (EKS), our own ML models plus LLM APIs (OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic).
What I'm looking for
- 2+ years shipping production systems, or fewer if your background is unusual and you can show what you've built
- real experience with at least one of: search/IR, large-scale data processing, ML systems, API design
- you already use Claude Code, Cursor or similar as part of how you work
- geo/POI data experience is a plus, not required
Fair warning: we are a small team, fast pace, and there could be nights and weekends. If that's not where you are in life right now, totally fine, this just isn't a good fit.
Process: a short note on why you, a 30 min call with me and then Vlad, a technical deep dive, then a paid trial project.
