About the role

We are looking for a full-stack and a ML engineer to join us as the
first employees of Can of Soup. We have no credentialist requirements
except that you are technically excellent, an island of self-driven
individualism, and - most importantly - obsessed with creating a
social product to impact millions of people around the world.

Can of Soup

Can of Soup is a social app to create AI photos of you and your
friends in imaginary situations. For example, you can use the app to
share photos of you, your best friend, and Taylor Swift chugging
seemingly ranch on the moon. We are backed by Y Combinator and other
top investors. While still in private beta, over 1M photos are
created each month on the app.

Values

We are ideological about what we build. Here's what we believe in:

Accelerate culture

Can of Soup's mission is to make cultural creation go brrr. So we
hire people who want to empower individuals to create and
communicate.

Great art is commercial

We believe in making something pop. Every day, we think about how to
create a medium that is fun for all people, not only technologists
and critics.

Build

We believe in building great products fast. Almost all questions are
empirical and answerable through shipping fast. We occasionally break
eggs to build fast, but we never compromise on making the output
great.

Embrace the maladjusted

Can of Soup is a platform for the imagination. Soupers are often
quirky - even weird. We love that. We are embracing this in our work
culture - as well as in our product philosophy.

Details

Our stack:

  * React Native, GraphQL, MySQL. Typescript, of course.
  * JAX/Python for ML infrastructure

We're an early stage startup, so we work a lot. We don't want to hide
the reality to prospective candidates: raw hours actually make a big
difference in the impact we can make.
