The Team

Headed by co-founder CEO, Zuzanna Stamirowska, the team’s leading AI experts include co-founder CTO Jan Chorowski, co-author of the Nobel Prize winner, Geoff Hinton. Pathway is backed by Business Angel Lukasz Kaiser, who co-authored Transformers (the “T” in ChatGPT) and is the key researcher behind GPT o1 from OpenAI.

The opportunity

Starting from the very first days of “product packaging”, you will be helping Pathway to achieve key goals such as: driving adoption of our product as a useful tool, raising awareness of the company as a thought leader among developers, and decreasing time-to-deployment / time-to-value of the product.

The developers using our product will mostly be in a corporate environment (both enterprise and large scale-ups). Our development framework is one day expected to become for them a part of their preferred development and data stack for data pipelines and analytics projects at work – their daily bread butter.
