About The Position

Spiral builds a fast analytical database for multimodal, multi-rate data streams, on top of the open source Vortex file format. Our users are AI/ML researchers and AI infra engineers developing models in complex domains, such as weather & climate, financial, time-series, genomics, point-clouds, videos, and images. They spend their days waiting on data loaders, writing video or sensor data pipelines, and watching expensive GPUs sit idle on I/O. We make that pain go away.

  • Experience with Rust is a bonus
