Full Job Description

ABOUT AARU Aaru operates at the frontier of predictive intelligence, using AI to simulate and predict human behavior at scale. By generating and deploying instances of artificial intelligence that mirror humans, called agents, Aaru simulates entire populations with unprecedented accuracy. Our partners work with us for many reasons: they leverage Aaru to refine strategy in volatile geopolitical climates, cut new product innovation timelines from months to minutes, and deploy marketing campaigns that win in an era where consumers have never been harder to understand. We provide organizations with invaluable foresight, empowering them to anticipate outcomes and proactively make the right decisions at the right time, every time. We're a small, dedicated, mission-driven team and we intend to stay that way. We believe the best work happens when exceptionally talented people are given ownership, trust, and the space to operate without bureaucratic friction. We work with urgency and intellectual honesty and expect new team members to match our velocity. We seek individuals who thrive at the frontier, who push beyond conventional limits, who bring curiosity and conviction in equal measure, and who want their work to have demonstrable impact in the world. If you're energized by the idea of a small team doing things that feel impossible, let’s build together.   ABOUT THE ROLE As an infrastructure engineer at Aaru, you will build the systems that enable our simulations to run faster, more reliably, and at greater scale. You will work across compute, networking, data pipelines, and developer tooling to remove bottlenecks from Aaru's core engineering and research workflows.   RESPONSIBILITIES - Design and build low-latency, high-throughput infrastructure for large-scale simulations - Improve the reliability and performance of data ingestion and computation pipelines - Identify system bottlenecks across compute, networking, storage, and orchestration - Build tools and abstractions
