Job DescriptionFurientis is building a new class of defensive interceptor missile for the United States and its allies. We design, build, and produce these systems end-to-end, from physics through manufacturing, at production rates legacy primes cannot match and at a fraction of the cost. We recruit engineers who internalize the warfighter's problems and bring deep mastery of the relevant technologies, without the institutional inertia that has slowed the legacy primes. Work done at Furientis has meaning. About the Team The Seeker Team builds the eyes and the targeting logic of our weapon system: a low-cost, mass-producible, multimodal missile seeker that leans on commercial supply chains where they outperform the defense legacy, with supply-chain security engineered in from day one. On a modern missile, the seeker is 40 to 60% of unit cost and often drives overly long delivery cycles; accordingly, the seeker team is at the tip of the spear for delivering value to our customers and to the taxpayer. Seeker design has exactly two real constraints: physics and mission. Supply chain, vendor lead time, qualification cost, "the way it's always been done": none of that stops us. We are a small, deeply technical team that drives capability through ingenuity and bias for action and ships hardware that flies. This is a wear-many-hats environment where you must be comfortable "building the airplane in flight" and stepping well outside your comfort zone; a narrowly scoped role with clean handoffs is not what this team offers. This is an AI-native team. Through fluent use of cutting-edge agentic coding tools, one engineer here consistently out-delivers a much larger conventional team. You will have opinions about where these tools help and where they do not, provide governance input, and build AI into your workflow from day one. About the Role You will be the responsible engineer for the optical and opto-mechanical subsystem of our seeker: lens prescriptions (with optical designers), mounts, athermalization, FPA interface and detector thermal solution, cold stops, windows and domes, packaging, alignment, calibration, and qualification, and you will execute the day-to-day work that gets that design built, integrated, qualified, and into volume production. You report to the seeker lead, who carries final technical authority. Bring deeply considered design options, error budgets, and trade-study results when a decision needs to be made, then execute with rigor and speed. This is a hands-on role for an engineer who has already taken optical hardware from concept through environmental qualification (ideally tactical, airborne, or missile-class) and is ready to do it again, faster and at higher volume. What You'll Do • Drive the opto-mechanical design of the LWIR seeker head: lens stack, mounts, baffles, cold stops, window and dome, FPA interface, detector thermal solution, packaging, and alignment., • Partner with optical designers on lens prescriptions; review designs in Zemax or Code V and reason about Seidel/Zernike aberrations from first principles., • Own design-constraint definition and error-budget optimization across the optical column; flow tolerances down to suppliers and up to the system performance model., • Develop athermalized mounts, bonded and elastomeric interfaces, and window/dome assemblies that survive the high-g, wide-temperature, vibration, and shock environment of a tactical seeker., • Integrate the FPA thermal solution (heat spreaders, heat pipes, TECs, cold stops, cold-shield interface) to hit detector NETD, dwell-time, and cool-down targets within tight volume and power budgets., • Build full optical tolerance budgets (Monte Carlo and worst-case) across manufacturing, alignment, thermal, packaging, and aging effects., • Qualify suppliers for IR optics, AR coatings, windows, and domes; bring DFM and design-to-cost recommendations across material choices (Ge, Si, ZnSe, chalcogenide)., • Develop alignment, bonding, and assembly procedures suitable for high-rate production, not one-off lab builds., • Build and execute the optical metrology and test approach: interferometry, MTF, encircled energy, boresight, transmission, and stray light., • Plan and execute environmental qualification per MIL-STD-810 and program-specific environments (vibration, shock, thermal, humidity, altitude, EMI/EMC, salt fog, sand/dust, high-g)., • Stand up bench fixtures and integration test setups: solder eval kits and breakout boards, bring up SBC/SoM carrier boards, and stitch together the sensor, power, and I/O plumbing.Skills We're Hiring For, • B.S. in Optical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or related; M.S. preferred., • 7 to 9 years of hands-on IR or precision optical hardware design and integration, with responsibility for an opto-mechanical assembly from CAD through environmental qualification., • Understanding of geometric and wave optics from first principles, including working fluency with Seidel and Zernike aberration formalisms; able to diagnose an aberrated system at the bench., • Working fluency with Zemax or Code V; reads and reviews prescriptions and tolerance flowdowns competently., • Strong CAD (SolidWorks, NX, or Creo) and GD&T to ASME Y14.5., • Hands-on optical metrology and test: benchtop interferometry (Fizeau, Twyman-Green, or equivalent), MTF, encircled energy, boresight, focal-plane mapping, transmission, stray light., • Athermal design, error-budget construction, tolerance analysis, and bonded/elastomeric optical mounting for IR systems, including window and dome design., • Optical packaging from CAD assembly to a volume-producible, environmentally qualified package, including detector thermal integration., • System hardening and survivability testing of optical systems for tactical, airborne, or munition-class environments per MIL-STD-810., • Hands-on MWIR and/or LWIR phenomenology: radiometry, atmospheric transmission, target/background signatures, NETD, and sensitivity-budget reasoning sufficient to defend seeker performance claims., • Demonstrated history of building and managing vendor relationships across the IR optical-hardware supply chain. Candidates without a real working network in IR optics will not be considered., • Bias for low-cost, ingenious optical-hardware solutions: a track record of meeting requirements at meaningfully lower unit cost than the legacy approach., • AI-native working style: daily use of agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Kilo, or similar) for tolerance scripting, supplier comparisons, drawing markup, and report generation., • Electronics competency: comfortable soldering eval kits, bringing up SBC/SoM carrier boards, and stitching together basic edge-hardware benches and test fixtures well enough to make things work end-to-end.Bonus Points For, • Direct LWIR (8 to 14 µm) optical assemblies in a tactical or airborne product., • High-g optical assembly experience (sustained launch loads or hard-impact events)., • Production transition: moved an optical assembly from prototype to volume manufacturing., • IR coatings expertise (DLC, hydrophobic, AR)., • Stray-light analysis with FRED, ASAP, or TracePro., • Direct missile, munition, or seeker program experience., • Hobbyist drone build and flight experience that translates to packaging, vibration, and field-handling intuition. Eligibility & Logistics Location: On-site at our Los Angeles, CA HQ; remote work is not available. Monthly weekend travel for test events and supplier engagements. Clearance: Must be a U.S. Person and eligible to obtain a U.S. SECRET security clearance. Active clearance is not required at hire; we will sponsor. Equal Opportunity & Export Compliance Furientis is an equal-opportunity employer. To comply with U.S. export control laws, employment is contingent on eligibility to access export-controlled information. We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.

Job DescriptionAmerica is critically deficient in production of defensive munitions- we currently produce shipborne interceptors in the few hundreds per year while our adversaries are producing offensive threats in the tens of thousands per year. Furientis was started to help solve this problem- introducing a new class of cost-effective, high production rate, interceptor missiles. We're seeking motivated individuals who internalize this problem and are eager to apply their past experience in similar industries (aerospace, defense, automotive/racing, robotics) and out of the box thinking to solve this problem for the US and its allies.About the Team The Seeker Team builds the eyes and the targeting logic of our weapon system: a low-cost, mass-producible, multimodal missile seeker that leans on commercial supply chains where they outperform, and vertically integrates wherever possible. On a modern missile, the seeker is 40 to 60% of unit cost and often drives overly long delivery cycles; accordingly, the seeker team is at the tip of the spear for delivering capability to our customers and value to the taxpayer. Seeker design has exactly two real constraints: physics and mission. Nothing else is a show-stopper, only an obstacle to overcome. We are a small, deeply technical team that drives capability through ingenuity and bias for action and ships hardware that flies. This is a wear-many-hats environment where you must be comfortable "building the airplane in flight" and stepping well outside your comfort zone; a narrowly scoped role with clean handoffs is not what this team offers. This is an AI-native team. Through fluent use of cutting-edge agentic coding tools, one engineer here consistently out-delivers a much larger conventional team. You will have opinions about where these tools help and where they do not, provide governance input, and build out an AI-centric workflow from day one. About the Role You will be the responsible engineer for the synthetic-data pipeline and the end-to-end performance model that drive our seeker program. This is a hybrid role: half ML data engineer, half traditional defense modeling and simulation engineer. Your top priority is the production, validation, and management of training data the algorithms team trusts. Behind the pipeline sits the classical M&S work: scene generation, atmospheric propagation, optics, focal-plane response, signal chain, target signatures, and plume/exhaust phenomenology, that gives the imagery and the predictions their physics. You will play an integral role in standing up the team's end-to-end, real-time, physics-correct engagement simulation pipeline. You report to the seeker lead, who carries final technical authority, and partner closely with the seeker hardware, algorithm, and GNC engineers. Your job is to make sure the trades, predictions, and datasets behind every design decision are rigorous, reproducible, and trusted. What You'll Do • Produce, validate, and manage the synthetic and semi-synthetic image datasets the algorithms team trains and evaluates against, with disciplined provenance, ground truth, and metadata. This is the highest-priority output of the role., • Build and maintain end-to-end seeker performance models spanning scene, atmosphere, optics, FPA, ROIC, ADC, signal chain, and image processing in MWIR and LWIR., • Build and validate signature models for target hardbody and plume/exhaust phenomenology., • Stand up and own the team's real-time, physics-correct engagement simulation pipeline integrating scene, sensor, signal chain, and engagement logic., • Integrate DTED and other georeferenced terrain data into scene generation, with discipline around frames, projections, and accuracy budgets., • Run CPU and GPU compute at scale on cloud infrastructure to render imagery and produce datasets at the volumes the algorithms team needs., • Author CUDA-accelerated rendering and signal-chain kernels where simulation throughput demands it; profile and optimize end-to-end pipeline throughput on multi-GPU rigs., • Run Monte Carlo trade studies on optical, sensor, and signal-chain parameters (FPA choice, integration time, f-number, FOV, NETD/NEI) and translate results into program-level design decisions., • Validate models against captured imagery from lab characterization, ground tests, and flight tests; close the loop on model fidelity over time.Skills We're Hiring For, • B.S. in Optical Engineering, Physics, EE, CS, or related; M.S. or Ph.D. preferred., • 4 to 7 years of relevant experience, with at least 2 years on synthetic/semi-synthetic training data for ML or signal-processing algorithms, and at least 2 years of classical EO/IR modeling and simulation., • First-hand MWIR/LWIR phenomenology: target signatures, atmospheric propagation, plume/exhaust radiometry, and scene background characterization., • Demonstrated responsibility for synthetic image datasets used by an algorithms team to train, evaluate, and test detection, acquisition, or tracking models., • Modern Python for science, engineering, and ML; comfortable shipping engineering software, not just notebooks., • Hands-on with one or more of MODTRAN, MUSES, DIRSIG, or an equivalent scene/atmosphere toolchain., • CUDA and GPU programming proficiency: writing, profiling, and optimizing kernels; reasoning about memory layout, occupancy, streams, and host-device transfer cost. You can take a slow simulation pipeline and make it fast., • Managing datasets at scale and running CPU/GPU compute jobs on cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure)., • Software practices: Git, readable documentation, reviewable code, repeatable runs, and unit/E2E testing., • Hands-on with agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Kilo, or similar): building, supervising, and reviewing AI-agent output to accelerate engineering work, with concrete examples of what you've shipped.Bonus Points For, • Unreal Engine or Unity for synthetic data generation, simulation, or visualization., • RF or radar M&S for multimodal sensor-fusion programs., • Hardware-in-the-loop or scene-projection (DMD, IRSP) experience., • Image processing and computer vision, including deep-learning detection and tracking., • Familiarity with Zemax or Code V; enough to consume an optical design directly into your model., • Hands-on with NV-IPM (formerly NVTherm/NVThermIP) or equivalent sensor performance modeling., • Direct missile, munition, seeker, or guidance program experience., • NeRFs and/or Gaussian Splatting. Eligibility & Logistics Location: On-site at our Los Angeles, CA HQ; remote work is not available. Monthly weekend travel for test events and supplier engagements. Clearance: A clearance is not required for this position. Must be a U.S. Person. Equal Opportunity & Export Compliance Furientis is an equal-opportunity employer. To comply with U.S. export control laws, employment is contingent on eligibility to access export-controlled information. AI assists in reviewing applications. Humans make final hiring decisions.

The Opportunity: At Grafana, we build observability tools that help users understand, respond to, and improve their systems – regardless of scale, complexity, or tech stack. The Grafana AI teams play a key role in this mission by helping users make sense of complex observability data through AI-driven features. These capabilities reduce toil, lower the barrier of domain expertise, and surface meaningful signals from noisy environments. What makes our team different is how we work: we operate with a high degree of autonomy and ownership, both as individuals and as a team. Engineers are empowered to make decisions, move quickly, and validate ideas early – while being supported by a deeply collaborative culture that values curiosity, feedback, and cross-functional partnership. We’re looking for an AI Software Engineer with a strong software engineering background, a quick iteration mindset, and a passion for experimentation – balanced by a focus on shipping and scaling impactful features that deliver value to users. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams to develop, test, and ship AI-powered features that contribute to improving infrastructure and observability quality through automation, while also expanding the capabilities of AI agents across the observability stack to assist users with incident response. As the team matures, there’s a broad opportunity to expand or redefine this role based on impact and initiative. What You’ll Be Doing: • Build and deliver AI solutions: Take ownership of developing high-performance AI features to help users detect, triage, and resolve incidents using observability data and tools., • Rapid experimentation and iteration: Implement a highly iterative process where you quickly prototype, test, and validate with real users, including shipping and evolving LLM- or agent-powered workflows for incident lifecycle management and automated analysis tasks., • Collaborate cross-functionally: Work with data analysts, product managers, and designers to shape AI-driven product features, including integration of agentic components with internal tools, alerting systems, runbooks, and developer workflows., • Utilize AI tools effectively: Use AI and automation tools to enhance both product functionality and your own development workflows., • Effective communication: You’ll be working in a highly dynamic and collaborative environment, so we need someone who can communicate effectively and contribute across teams., • Ownership and impact: Take full ownership of the AI solutions you develop, ensuring they are not only innovative but also scalable, maintainable, and aligned with real user workflows. We invest heavily in developer productivity. You can use modern AI coding assistants as part of your daily workflow (your choice of tools, within security guidelines), backed by a company-funded usage budget so you can iterate quickly without unnecessary friction. We encourage pragmatic AI-assisted development: faster prototyping, test generation, refactors, documentation, and incident follow-ups—always paired with strong code review and quality standards. You’ll also have access to frontier models (e.g., GPT-Codex 5/3, Claude Opus 4.6, Gemini 3 Pro). What Makes You a Great Fit: • Strong engineering skills: Solid experience building production software systems (backend and / or full stack). You’re a self-starter, capable of tackling complex engineering problems with minimal supervision., • AI experience with a practical mindset: You’re familiar with AI technologies and frameworks, and you focus on delivering high-quality solutions that work in the real world, not just in theory., • Quick iteration and experimentation: You’re comfortable releasing prototypes, collecting feedback, and iterating with a pragmatic mindset., • Proven initiative: You take ownership and drive projects forward, pushing boundaries to find the most impactful solutions. You can deal with ambiguity and are able to define scope where things are loosely defined., • Collaborative attitude: You communicate effectively with peers, product managers, and designers. You’re open to feedback, and you bring a solutions-oriented mindset to the table. Requirements: • Experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, and building applications powered by GenAI., • Proven track record of delivering software that made it into production and is actively used by users., • Exposure to working in cloud-native environments (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure)., • Experience using observability tools to understand and troubleshoot system behavior.

We're looking for a visionary creative leader with deep experience building platform-native content strategies for organic social, primarily Instagram and TikTok, with fluency across other channels.

You're likely a Social or Creative Strategist by trade with a background in Content Creation, Video Editing, or Community-Led Growth. You are hyper-focused on earned attention and building owned channels that compound into audience, affinity, and revenue. You'll work on our Organic Social and/or Performance Creative service, our AI-powered creative engagement for brands that want to work with us on the following: Expertise: Engage us for our expertise in organic social, which includes building content strategies, creative direction, and building an organic social engine that audiences want to follow and connect with. Engagement: Deliver game-changing creative that builds brand worlds and sells products and services better than anyone else. Diversity: Increase the creative diversity of their social or ad program through the use of multiple ad formats: statics, motion, video, UGC, AI. Volume: Increase the volume of their creative program by delivering upwards of 50+ new creatives per month with the intention of scaling that as needed. This role is for individuals who want to be at the forefront of social-first creative, AI in marketing, and join a team that is building the best creative content culture in the business. You will work directly on our Creative Team to output content. You will also work with our Social Commerce team to brief creator and UGC content, and our Paid Media team to identify organic winners worth scaling into paid. Generally, your work will be the front door to each brand we represent.

You'll report to the Director of Creative and lead Designers and Editors to execute organic assets across formats, including statics, GIFs, short-form video, carousels, motion graphics, Stories, and creator content.

You can storyboard, shoot, cut, and ship content. You can jump into CapCut to fix pacing and into Figma, Photoshop, or Illustrator to polish assets. Strategy-only folks will not be a fit.

You understand how each platform's distribution works and why content earns reach, not just why it looks good. You already use tools like Claude, Midjourney, Perplexity, Runway, or similar to increase speed and volume. You have shipped content with AI-assisted elements, not just experiments. You're an excellent communicator, both in writing and when presenting to clients. You give crisp, actionable feedback to designers and editors and know how to navigate pushback from clients. You can turn vague goals into testable content concepts, track results, and call the next iteration without hand-holding. Comfortable in Figma including Auto Layout, components, and systems. Strong in Adobe Creative Suite and short-form editing tools. No organic social growth experience on Instagram or TikTok. No portfolio link or no organic performance context. Strategy-only with no hands-on content creation ability. Not excellent in client presentation and channel storytelling. Darkroom is not a typical agency.
