About the role

What will you do at Exa?

Exa is an applied AI lab building a search engine unlike the world has ever seen. We build massive-scale infra to crawl the entire web, train state-of-the-art embedding models to process it, and design super high performant vector databases to retrieve over it. We now power search for Cursor, Cognition, HubSpot, and over 400,000 developers and have raised $350m from Lightspeed, Benchmark, and a16z.

Our ultimate goal is to build perfect search over all the world's information, far beyond Google. If you want to build massive-scale ML systems that will define the way the new AI world consumes information, this is the place for you. DevRel Engineers play a crucial role in connecting Exa to the world.

We're building an API to all knowledge unlike any that has ever existed and the people need to know - through demos, tweets, hackathons, API docs, and more. Want to get the world excited about the next-gen of search?
