The Road Less Travelled: Mission

We’re a team of engineers and dreamers who bet on semiconductors, the industry powering the AI revolution but still largely untouched by it. While most chased software markets, we set out to bring AI into fabs, the invisible engines behind everything from smartphones to AI. Semiconductors are powering the world’s most critical technologies, and the industry is undergoing its biggest transformation in decades. At this startup, you’ll work with top-tier manufacturers worldwide, solving real production problems at massive scale.

Joining us isn’t just another job; it’s a chance to be part of the first generation of engineers building the intelligence layer for the future of semiconductor manufacturing.

🔧 What We Do:

Every smartphone, car, and AI model runs on tiny chips made in complex fabs, where even small errors can cost millions. We use AI to catch problems early, and our no-code platform lets fab engineers detect, trace, and prevent issues without being AI experts.

✅ Spot defects early – flag tiny issues before they snowball into scrap losses.

✅ Find the root cause – trace failures to the exact machine or process for fast fixes.

✅ Control problems at the source – catch anomalies before they cause major losses.

✅ Predict future risks – forecast failures and yield drops to enable proactive action.

💼 Trusted by Leading Investors

Backed by Peak XV’s Surge, Alpha Intelligence Capital, FEBE, and Beenext, we’ve raised $12M in total, including an $8.5M Series A, and proudly partner with trailblazers like GlobalFoundries.

We’re looking for someone who thinks, acts, and leads like an owner—someone who doesn’t wait for direction, but creates it, shaping what we build, why we build it, and how it reaches the world. You’ll have direct access to founders and customers, with the autonomy to define how our products come to life. If you thrive on ambiguity, live for customer conversations, and love turning abstract ideas into real, usable products, this is your chance to truly build like a founder.

You’re not applying for a job; you’re stepping into a founder’s shoes.

What You’ll Be Doing

1. Define the Future Product Roadmap: Set the vision and strategy for AI-powered tools that detect early issues, trace root causes, and predict future risks in semiconductor manufacturing. Decide which datasets and scenarios to focus on, and which to deprioritize, to maximize impact across fabs.

2. Shape Product Scope and Priorities: Identify the highest-value use cases and workflows to optimize for, balancing quick wins with long-term strategic opportunities. Break big ideas into testable initiatives with measurable milestones.

3. Validate with Users and Industry Experts: Leverage your network to test concepts, gather real-world feedback, and understand pain points from fab engineers, yield teams, and process experts. Use insights to refine product direction.

4. Build and Test Early Experiences: Create demos, prototypes, and pilot workflows to showcase ideas, validate assumptions, and demonstrate value before full-scale development.

5. Communicate Vision and Test the Market: Develop product pitches, articulate business value, and engage with potential customers to test interest and gather feedback that informsthe roadmap.

6. Lead Cross-Functional Execution: Work closely with engineering, design, and AI teams to translate validated concepts into scalable products. Ensure alignment between strategy, technical feasibility, and business impact.

7. Iterate, Learn, and Scale: Continuously review outcomes, gather insights, and refine the roadmap to deliver products that drive measurable improvements in yield, cycle time, and cost across customers.

Who You Are

1. 2. 3. Proven product leadership in semiconductors — prior experience building or owning products used in fabs, or OSATs, with a track record of defining what to build, why it matters, and how success is measured

.2. Deep understanding of fab workflows — familiarity with inspection, metrology, yield, defect classification, SPC, and process control systems, enabling you to identify the highest- impact opportunities.

3. Industry Network — established connections with fab engineers, yield and process experts, and semiconductor stakeholders to validate product ideas, gather real-world feedback, and ensure solutions meet industry needs.4. Product-First Mindset — ability to analyze multiple ideas, workflows, and high-volume fab data to identify the highest-ROI use cases and define scalable products that deliver measurable impact across customers.

5. Experience shipping enterprise software into production fabs — not prototypes; systems that run 24×7, with real operational impact, validated across multiple customers or fabs.

6. Comfort operating in regulated, reliability-critical environments — understanding the cost of false positives, false negatives, and production downtime, and designing product decisions to minimize risk.

7. Communication Skills — exceptional ability to communicate strategically with customers, clearly with teams, and persuasively with stakeholders.

8. Customer Visits — willing to travel frequently to meet fab teams, explore manufacturing environments, and gather firsthand insight.
