Build AI That Actually Ships.
Join the team turning 2.5 billion automotive repair events into production-grade AI — used by 200K+ professionals worldwide.
The Domain
A Genuinely Hard Problem in a $1 Trillion Industry.
Why Automotive AI is Uniquely Hard
- Free-text notes written by technicians, not engineers
- 13+ languages, dialects, abbreviations & slang
- Millions of part numbers, OEM codes & variants
- Real-time safety decisions — zero hallucination tolerance
- Proprietary ontology: 13 years of real repair data
Why It's an Exciting Place to Build
- Automotive aftermarket: 280M+ vehicles on US roads
- Your models influence real repair decisions daily
- No toy datasets — 2.5B real-world repair events
- Agentic AI workflows in production, not just demos
- Customers: Snap-on, MOTOR, Mercedes-Benz, Mitchell1
The Technology
A Stack That Would Make Any AI Engineer Excited.
LLMs & Fine-Tuning
- PrediiLLM: 3B-param domain model. 95.6% accuracy at 0.8s. Fine-tuned on automotive ontology with proprietary eval data.
Production RAG
- Pipelines over massive repair order corpora. QDrant vector DB. Real retrieval at scale — not classroom theory.
Agentic Workflows
- Orchestrated multi-agent systems for diagnostic, estimation & parts workflows. VLLM inference.
Infrastructure
- Azure Kubernetes/Docker at scale. MongoDB + vector DBs. SOC2 compliant. Isolated cloud & on-prem deployments.
Machine Translation
- Intent discovery, classification, embedding models. Machine translation across 13+ languages including regional variants.
Claude Code & Frontier Models
- Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.6 in production. GPT integration. We use the best tool for the job — not the cheapest.
Research & Intellectual Property
Your Work Goes Beyond Shipping Code.
- 3+ Active Granted Research Patents
- US patents covering normalization & intent discovery engines
- Continuous IP development as you publish real papers
- Your name on a patent. Your research published. Your work cited.
The Environment
Two World-Class Offices. One Global Team.
Palo Alto, CA
- Heart of global AI innovation
- Direct access to US automotive technology ecosystem
- Network with leading AI & automotive professionals
Pune, India
- 18 FTE engineering team — growing fast
- Modern collaboration space with strong culture
- 2-week agile sprints with real ownership
Growth & Development
We Invest in You — Not Just Your Output.
- Automotive Training: Deep domain immersion: OEM content, diagnostic workflows, parts ecosystems.
- Direct access to founders, automotive AI veterans, and a board network spanning M&A, technology, and enterprise software.
- Active university & industry research partnerships. Present at conferences. Publish papers.
- Contributions that create novel IP go through the patent process. Named inventors on granted US patents — a credential that follows you for life.
