AI in this role
Build and run business operations, finance, and people ops at an AI lab while occasionally using software and AI to automate recurring tasks.
ABOUT TYPESAFE
TypeSafe AI is an AI lab building machine-native intelligence infrastructure for automation, designed to make decisions within software. Our first model, Jev, combines the intelligence of LLMs with the efficiency and reliability of code.
We’re a small, fast team rebuilding the AI stack from first principles. Made in SF, with love. Come join the frontier.
ABOUT THE ROLE
You’ll build and run the business operations that keep TypeSafe moving as we grow. Your scope will span finance, procurement, people operations, and the operational problems that don’t have an obvious owner yet.
You’ll execute, then strategize to turn ambiguous needs into working systems. A few examples of projects you might take on:
Negotiate vendor agreements and build visibility into spending, commitments, and renewals, and get reliable bill-pay processes running.
Build headcount and financial forecasts to support our new office search.
Improve employee onboarding and other people operations as the team grows.
Use software and AI to automate recurring work and fix operational bottlenecks.
We’re looking for someone who combines analytical judgment with relentless follow-through. You can structure an unfamiliar problem, make a recommendation, and do the work to see it through. As an early member of the team, you’ll shape how the company operates.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO
Have executed on business operations at a growing startup and can do so without an established playbook.
Combine analytical strength, intellectual horsepower, and commercial judgment with careful attention to detail.
Take complete ownership, communicate clearly, and build practical systems that help others move faster.
Care deeply about our mission and want to help build the company behind it.
LIFE AT TYPESAFE
We’re a small, flat, close-knit team working to make intelligence dependable enough to become part of everyday software. We work fully in person from our San Francisco office near Embarcadero station. We love what we do and care deeply about the work.
We strive for excellence and craftsmanship and won’t stop until we get there. When the team wins, we all win, and we enjoy collaborating and inspiring each other to grow—as a team and as individuals.
We value emotional honesty, kindness, and bringing your whole self to work. We build machines; we don’t try to be machines.
We want TypeSafe to be the place where you do the most impactful work of your career and help define our future as a company.
WE PROVIDE
100% covered health insurance
Daily lunch and dinner
Visa sponsorships
401K plans
