Job description

At Bifrost, we're building the fastest data flywheel for physical AI. We generate synthetic data and simulation scenarios that allow robotics and autonomous systems teams to train and test their AI in minutes instead of months. Our customers use Bifrost to land spacecraft on Mars, detect pirates across the Atlantic, and build AI systems that work reliably in the real world.

tl;dr

• Synthetic data and simulation platform for physical AI and robotics

• Backed by Carbide Ventures, Airbus Ventures, Peak XV Partners (fka Sequoia Capital), Wavemaker Partners, CapVista, Techstars, Lux Capital and others

• Used by NASA, Anduril, Honda, Mitsubishi, and frontier AI labs to build AI systems that work in the real world

• Work with an exceptional team to solve impactful problems
