About Base0 We’re solving one of the biggest challenges in modern AI workflows: fragmented context. Today, project knowledge is scattered across conversations, tools, and docs—forcing teams to spend more time steering AI than actually getting work done. Base0 brings context, continuity, and observability to AI-powered work, enabling teams to ship faster, work smarter, and maximize productivity across their existing AI stack. We’re a fast-moving, early-stage team with a proven track record of building and scaling successful AI businesses. Freshly funded and growing, we’re looking for builders who want to help define the next frontier of human–AI collaboration. Role Summary You’ll own the 0→1 systems behind Base0’s Intelligence Layer—building the knowledge extraction, mapping, and retrieval systems that transform AI-native work. This means experimenting with how to extract, represent, and retrieve knowledge from thousands of conversations—and turning those experiments into working systems that power real user experiences across our API and user-facing features/products. If you’re excited by turning product ideas into working LLM systems and iterating through research, data, and prototypes to find what works, you’ll thrive here. What You’ll Build Core AI systems that extract and organize knowledge from AI conversations into structured, reusable context. Retrieval and memory infrastructure (GraphRAG + vector search) that delivers precise, low-latency context to user workflows. Agentic systems that reason across stored context—handling retrieval, synthesis, and evaluation tasks autonomously. Prompt and orchestration frameworks that connect multiple models, tools, and data sources into end-to-end reasoning pipelines. Evaluation and telemetry systems to benchmark retrieval quality, latency, and overall intelligence performance. Fast prototypes to explore new product directions and validate user-facing capabilities. Skills We’re Looking For Strong Python engineering fundamentals—skilled in building performant, maintainable systems and services that connect data, models, and APIs. Deep understanding of retrieval architectures—embeddings, vector databases, hybrid or graph-based search, and caching strategies. Experience with LLM orchestration frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, or custom-built agent systems. Proven ability to build and tune LLM-based agents for reasoning, synthesis, or evaluation tasks. Familiarity with prompt engineering and multi-step reasoning—designing structured flows that balance quality, latency, and cost. Exposure to fine-tuning or adapter training (LoRA, PEFT) and how to integrate tuned models into retrieval pipelines. Ability to work end-to-end—backend (FastAPI, Node) to quick front-end demos or dashboards for testing and iteration. Comfort operating in open-ended problem spaces, defining your own experiments, and driving them to working outcomes. If you thrive on autonomy, clarity, and collaboration and want to build the connective tissue between humans and AI systems, Base0 is where you’ll do your best work.

We’re a fast-moving, early-stage team with a proven track record of building and scaling successful AI businesses. Freshly funded and growing, we’re looking for builders who want to help define the next frontier of human–AI collaboration. Role Summary You’ll own the systems powering Base0’s platform and Intelligence Layer—designing APIs, architecting data systems, and operating production services that are fast, fault-tolerant, and secure. You’ll work closely with product, design, and research to turn complex ideas into scalable, elegant systems that make AI workflows seamless and trustworthy. What You’ll Do Design, Build, & Maintain APIs: Build reliable, versioned interfaces that power Base0’s product and external integrations. Architect Data Systems: Design and optimize relational, vector, and graph-based data stores that represent interconnected project context. Build Distributed Services: Develop and scale backend systems using modern Python frameworks and asynchronous processing patterns. Integrate AI Workflows: Combine retrieval and generation pipelines to deliver context-rich, adaptive intelligence within the platform. Ensure Reliability & Security: Design for fault tolerance, enforce access control, manage secrets securely, and maintain compliance with data protection standards. Operate in Production: Deploy, monitor, and optimize services with meaningful metrics, alerts, and incident response practices. Debug & Optimize: Trace issues end-to-end, fix root causes, and continuously improve system performance and resilience. Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Partner with frontend, design, and research to deliver reliable, user-centered experiences. Own the Outcome: Document systems, write tests, and iterate post-launch using real-world feedback. Skills We’re Looking For 5+ years building and operating backend or full-stack systems in production environments. Strong Python fundamentals and experience with modern web frameworks. Deep understanding of data modeling and SQL with hands-on experience in relational databases. Experience designing distributed and asynchronous systems for scale and reliability. Understanding of vector or graph data models and their role in search, retrieval, or knowledge systems. Solid foundation in cloud-native operations — containerization, orchestration, monitoring, and scaling. Track record of owning systems end-to-end — from design to post-launch operation. Awareness of security best practices and compliance principles. Strong debugging, observability, and incident-management skills. Clear, proactive communicator comfortable working with product and research partners. If you thrive on autonomy, clarity, and collaboration and want to build the connective tissue between humans and AI systems, Base0 is where you’ll do your best work.
