About Luminai

Nearly every organization in the world relies on complex manual work to carry out critical internal processes. These are processes that keep the world going — enrolling patients in a hospital, underwriting loans inside a bank, or processing new transactions for an airline. Yet most companies don’t have enough resources to properly automate these tasks and are stuck in manual, decades old way of doing things.

At Luminai, we develop technology to automate long-form organization wide workflows of any complexity easily and safely using AI. Luminai serves some of the world’s most critical organizations in sectors like Healthcare, Finance, and Telecommunication to delegate mission-critical workflows that previously required hands-on human involvement, over to autonomous AI systems. Our approach combines frontier AI development, with a purpose built workflow execution engine to achieve this goal.


We've raised a Series-A round led by General Catalyst, YCombinator, and investors including Kevin Weil (Chief Product Officer at OpenAI), Arash Ferdowsi (co-founder of Dropbox), Katie Stanton (former VP Global Media, Twitter) and CEOs of companies including Flexport, Notion, Front, Ramp and Twitch.

As a Software Engineer, you will play a foundational role in designing and building the core Luminai platform that allows organizations worldwide to deploy and scale executable AI automations in mission critical production environments. As a senior member of the engineering team, you are expected to have a strong proficiency in fundamentals of software engineering and exceptional ability to drive technical projects in ambitious environments. You will help define, architect and improve key system foundations that deliver a stellar platform experience for users within a high growth environment.

What you might work on

  • Lead large scale application development development projects, including planning, designing and implementing for scale.

  • Champion best practices in software development, including testing, experimentation and maintainability to ensure high-quality and resilient software.

  • Contribute to the design and implementation of a robust platform, enhancing the scalability and usability of the platform platform.

Things we're looking for

  • A minimum of 4+ years of experience as a software engineer, that involves working on zero to one engineering projects

  • Proven track record of shipping high-quality code in challenging projects

  • Significant experience working with Python and/or Typescript and atleast one low level language (C++, Go, Rust etc.)

  • Experience owning technically challenging and demanding cross-functional projects

  • Experience across the entire stack from platform design, backend, infra to frontend (and if you have a preference, we’d love to consider it!)

Benefits & Perks:

  • Comprehensive health care benefits (medical, dental, vision)

  • Flexible time off + 9 paid company holidays

  • Financial planning support (401K, HSA, FSA)

  • 12 weeks primary-caregiver parental leave; 6 weeks secondary-caregiver parental leave
