Product Operations
Position Summary & Responsibilities
DS creates systems that power the next generation of radio spectrum intelligence. We collect radio data from all over the world, train neural networks to decipher it, and run them on the smallest chips we can. We’re solving a new, technically hard problem where nothing from other fields works out of the box, and along the way, we’ve built our own stack from scratch, including entirely new embedding model architectures, custom GPU kernels, and much more.
Joining DS means owning major parts of a fast-growing AI research organization, joining a collaborative, talent-dense team with decades of experience in probabilistic ML, accelerated computing, embedded systems, and signal theory, and growing your career in the areas that interest you. You’ll fit in if you want to come to work for the problem itself and don’t want to choose between technical rigor, business value, and real-world impact.
We work with high ownership and trust.
The Role
We’re hiring someone who brings clear thinking and relentless follow-through to critical work happening across the company.
You'll report directly to the COO and work across engineering, research, product, and growth. Your job is to make sure that everyone working on an effort understands what success looks like, that there's a concrete plan to get there, and that the work happening today still supports that plan. You'll keep asking whether those things are true as new information comes in.
This is a hands-on individual contributor role for someone who wants real responsibility early. You'll help turn technical work into capabilities people can use, work directly from founders and senior leaders, and take on more as you earn trust. If you want to build a company yourself someday, this is a chance to learn by helping build one.
What You'll Do
Make success explicit. Help founders and project owners agree on concrete, written success criteria. Check that everyone means the same thing by progress and readiness.
Get to the substance. Read plans and results, talk to the people doing the work, and assess progress for yourself.
Key Role Competencies & Evaluation Highlights
Evaluating advanced technical specialization, remote work mastery, and the capability to lead cross-functional engineering initiatives autonomously.
