Description
Don’t see your role listed? Pick your own. Valency is building the foundation for research that puts people first and runs at the speed AI now allows. We're small and deliberate, and we don't always know what we need until we meet the person who brings it. If the mission resonates and you have a point of view on where you'd fit, tell us. The role doesn't have to exist yet. How it works Send us your background and a short note on where you'd contribute. Engineering, research, design, operations, comms, something we haven't thought of. We read every submission. When the shape of what you sent matches a need, we reach out. What we're building Valency indexes tens of millions of research papers and makes them queryable in real-time, for researchers and for the AI systems they increasingly rely on. People stay at the center. The old stack wasn't built for this. Who tends to do well here You think in systems and notice when foundations are wrong. You're drawn to hard problems in science, AI, or knowledge infrastructure. You hold a high bar for quality without getting stuck on it. You communicate clearly when things are ambiguous. You like early-stage work, where what you build stays yours. We value depth over credentials. We're a hybrid team based in Berkeley, CA that comes together in office 3 days a week. What to send us In addition to the application form, please also send us: Resume or short bio — enough to understand your background A short note on what draws you to Valency and the role you'd write for yourself Anything else that shows your work Skip the cover letter A few things worth knowing We're early. Joining now means your work shapes the product directly. We don't have every answer yet. The good candidates tend to be comfortable with ambiguity. We move slowly on hires. We also don’t ghost.
Responsibilities
Contribute to building a real-time queryable index of tens of millions of research papers for researchers and AI systems. The specific role is open-ended, allowing the candidate to define where they can best contribute to the company's mission.
