About the job


Senior Neuro-Symbolic Systems Engineer - San Francisco, CA 


A company building AI systems that can interact with the physical world at scale - designing experiments, controlling hardware, and accelerating scientific discovery from days to reality are looking for a Senior Neuro-Symbolic Systems Engineer to join their team.


What Will I Be Doing:


  • Design and implement structured representations such as hypergraphs, relational models, symbolic planners, or similar abstractions
  • Build update rules, inference mechanisms, and dynamic graph operations that support multi-step reasoning and coordination
  • Work with agent, simulation, and data infrastructure teams to integrate symbolic structures into real workflows
  • Develop tools for evaluating correctness, consistency, and stability of graph-based representations
  • Operate as a cross-functional technical partner to ensure symbolic layers work alongside ML, RL, and systems architecture components


What We're Looking For:


  • Strong background in symbolic AI, knowledge representation, graph systems, computational logic, or neuro-symbolic methods
  • Experience designing or implementing structured representations for planning, reasoning, or complex workflows
  • Familiarity with ML toolchains and comfort bridging symbolic and statistical systems
  • Ability to design abstractions and system architectures that support large-scale, real-time updates
  • High-agency engineer who enjoys defining new structures and building them from first principles


What's In It For Me:


  • Salary of $200,000 - $300,000 dependent on experience
  • Greenfield work. Build something that doesn't exist, at the frontier of physical AI and automated hardware design
  • Real impact. Control actual physical systems contributing to breakthroughs in cancer detection, materials science, and more
  • Join a company backed by significant venture funding and a $42M government research programme
