DRYFT

Dryft builds intelligent systems that automate complex human decisions in manufacturing operations

We’re a small, talent-dense team with modest roots and a love for the physical world - cars, machines, planes. Our team includes graduates from Stanford, Berkeley, CDTM, TUM , winners of Stanford TreeHacks , recipients of Fulbright & Haniel scholarships , and builders of everything from robots and race cars to software with millions of downloads .

We’re backed by the founders and leaders behind Amazon, Facebook, Stripe, Applied Intuition, & others; General Catalyst & Neo, and board members of global industrial companies.

Today, we’re already saving customers millions. But this is only the beginning. ERPs ran the physical world for half a century. Dryft is powering the next.

THE ROLE

As Founding Fullstack Engineer , you’ll be the brain behind Dryft’s decision intelligence. You’ll build scalable systems that combine agent-based reasoning with mathematical optimization and simulation on top of large-scale industrial data.

YOU

  • Like building scalable, interpretable, data-driven agents from all perspectives - algorithms, architecture and infrastructure.

  • Have a strong product sense and enjoy working directly with customers daily

  • Have shipped production code end-to-end, are strong in backend & infra and comfortable shipping basic frontend features.

  • Have built data-intensive , multi-tenant production systems with Redis, Postgres, and orchestration frameworks. Clickhouse experience is a plus.

  • Are ready to work onsite in SF (we support relocation & visa)

TECH STACK

  • FE (TypeScript): React, Chakra UI v3, TanStack Router, TanStack Query, Vite

  • BE (Python): FastAPI with Pydantic v2, SQLModel, Postgres with pgvector, dagster

View company profile

Dryft AI, formally known as Dynamic Routing and Yielding for Flow of Traffic (DRYFT), is a technology company established in 2023 with a forward-thinking vision to revolutionize urban mobility. The company is dedicated to addressing the pervasive and interconnected challenges of traffic congestion, air pollution, and deteriorating road infrastructure that plague modern cities. Recognizing that existing traffic management systems are often outdated and inefficient, Dryft AI has embarked on a mission to deploy advanced, end-to-end artificial intelligence systems. The core objective is to create smarter, cleaner, and more sustainable urban environments by optimizing traffic flow, significantly reducing harmful emissions, and enhancing the longevity of critical road networks. By tackling these issues head-on, Dryft AI aims to improve the quality of life for city dwellers and contribute to a more sustainable future for urban centers worldwide.

At the heart of Dryft AI's solution are sophisticated, AI-powered traffic management systems designed for scalability and widespread deployment. These systems leverage cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning to continuously analyze real-time traffic data, predict flow patterns, and dynamically adjust traffic signal timings. This intelligent optimization moves beyond the static, pre-programmed schedules of traditional traffic lights, creating a responsive and efficient network that minimizes unnecessary stops, reduces idling times, and smooths the overall flow of vehicles. The impact of this technology is multifaceted: it directly cuts down on fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, alleviates the economic costs associated with lost productivity from congestion, and reduces the physical wear and tear on road surfaces. As Dryft AI prepares for deployment in cities across the country, it stands at the forefront of a technological shift, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in smart city infrastructure and intelligent traffic management.
