About Us
At MAI (pronounced “my”), we are dedicated to transforming the landscape of advanced advertising technology. Our vision is to make innovative marketing tools, previously reserved for large corporations with extensive budgets, available to all. Utilizing AI agents, our platform automates and optimizes performance marketing, enabling small and mid-sized businesses to effectively scale their advertising efforts without the need for costly agencies or excessive manual campaign management.
Founded by industry experts from Google and Instacart, we are proud to have secured a $25 million Seed funding round led by Kleiner Perkins to propel our growth. This investment will allow us to enhance our product and engineering teams, bringing our vision of intelligent and autonomous marketing solutions to fruition. Our AI agents have already demonstrated their effectiveness, driving 40% more sales for clients and managing millions in monthly Google Ads expenditures. Our client waitlist is expanding rapidly.
Why Join Us Now
In contrast to traditional software development, which follows established guidelines, we are pioneering the infrastructure for autonomous, intelligent agents—and we are charting the course ourselves.
As a Software Engineer at MAI, you will not only write code; you will be instrumental in architecting the ecosystem where our AI agents learn and operate. Your contributions will have a significant impact across our entire technology stack, from the foundational data platforms that support our agents, to the core frameworks that empower their reasoning capabilities, all the way to the scalable systems that deliver their intelligence to our users. This is a unique opportunity to build a truly AI-native product from the ground up and tackle challenges at the cutting edge of the industry.
You will be more than just a contributor on a large team; you will be a key player in a close-knit group of fewer than ten engineers, making a substantial impact and influencing the future trajectory of our company. We are in the formative stages of establishing three core teams:
Product Engineering & Infrastructure
AI Platform & Foundation
Agent Application & Quality
This is a rare opportunity for personal and professional growth as these teams develop. We encourage you to utilize your expertise while exploring new projects outside your comfort zone, learning from colleagues and evolving into a more versatile engineer.
