AI-enhanced for better readability
foam.ai | Founding Engineer
Salary: $180,000 - $300,000 Equity: 0.25% - 2% Location: San Francisco (onsite) Type: Full Time
foam is building a new observability stack that captures, traces, and links everything, purpose-built for AI. We use this foundation to feed complete context into AI to automatically identify and root-cause breakages across entire systems.
- We’re a five-person team. Perla (CEO) was the 5th engineer in the consumer-facing team at Affirm (pre-IPO).
- We've raised $9.9M in seed funding from Khosla Ventures, Max Levchin, The House Fund, and South Park Commons.
- We’ve got active betas at Orb, Braintrust, Plaid & TogetherAI.
About the Role
We’re looking for engineers who want to take point and work hand in hand with Perla on one or more of our core systems:
- The Telemetry Engine - Think of this as a major extension of OTEL custom built to capture signals that have historically been inaccessible to humans.
- The Root Cause Analysis Engine (aka Solver) - This is currently an agent swarm, but evolves every week in search of better and better root cause analysis.
