About the job
About LanceDB
AI advances at the speed of its research, and research moves at the speed of its data. LanceDB is the AI-native Multimodal Lakehouse: one system where a researcher curates petabytes of video, audio, and every signal derived from them with a few lines of Python, and the next training run starts as fast as the next idea. Customers like Runway, Midjourney, and Netflix build the future of AI on LanceDB, from frontier and world models to robots and autonomous vehicles.

What We're Looking For

- Experience working on large-scale data platforms (e.g., databases, data infra, ML/AI systems)
- Understanding of AI researcher persona - what success looks like for them, what are their pain points, what increases their happiness
- Regularly engaged with users (interviews, support, design partners, or community)
- Demonstrated ownership of ambiguous projects with minimal guidance
- Experience influencing or driving roadmap / prioritization decisions
- Strong written and verbal communication (can drive alignment across teams)
