Systems Engineer

ZO COMPUTER COMPANY is seeking a Systems Engineer. ## OPPORTUNITY Imagine having an entire software company working just for you – housing all your personal data, proactively working in the background doing chores, building apps, and organizing information to support your life. It'll work around the clock, interact with people and businesses to make you more organized, capable, and creative. We're building a new category of personal computing device – a personal cloud, built for personal agents (and the agentic internet to come). Our mission is to make private cloud computing accessible to everyone, by designing enduring abstractions and flexible infrastructure for consumers and their agents. ## THE COMPANY Our cofounders Rob and Ben met on the early Venmo team and have been friends for 13 years. Rob was the founding engineer both at Fin (a virtual assistant ahead of its time) and Substack. Ben had a long career at Stripe from 2015-2023. Our team is small, experienced, and nimble. We have a beautiful office in Brooklyn, and have a small but growing presence in San Francisco. We prefer in-person. ## THE ROLE Our goal is to stand up personal infrastructure for every individual on earth. This infrastructure is intended to be dynamically configured via AI agents, representing a unique set of systems problems. We need help from engineers who can design and operationalize these systems at the highest level. You should be proficient in Python, TypeScript, IaC, etc. and be an expert in distributed systems, storage/databases, networking, and containerization. You should be self-driven and be able to lead the design and operationalization of these systems with no hand holding. If you're interested, please let us know by emailing your resume and anything else you want us to know to founders [at] zocomputer [dot] com
