Tacit, San Francisco
At Tacit, you'll help define how humans interact with computers. You'll join at a pivotal moment, translating scientific breakthroughs into category-defining consumer products with direct access to executive leadership, significant autonomy, and substantial resources.
You'll have the opportunity to build a world-class software organization and help pioneer an AI-native approach to engineering.
We are an early-stage, deep tech startup based in San Francisco, developing innovative hardware that rethinks human-computer interaction. We are backed by General Catalyst, Khosla Ventures, and Greylock Partners, with a founding team from Stanford, BrainGate, Oculus, and Tesla. While we can’t reveal too much just yet, our team is tackling cutting-edge engineering challenges to bring revolutionary products to life.
We are hiring a Head of Software Engineering to lead and scale a highly technical software organization spanning consumer applications, real-time inference systems, cloud infrastructure, and core R&D platforms. Reporting directly to the CTO, you will build on the team's existing technical foundations, accelerate product development, and help shape how we build software in the age of AI.
We're looking for an unusual combination of exceptional people leadership, AI-native engineering practices, and strong technical judgment.
