Founding Full Stack Product Engineer

Location : Onsite in San Francisco

Compensation : Competitive Salary + Equity

Who We Are

UniversalAGI is building OpenAI for Physics. AI startup based in San Francisco and backed by Elad Gil (#1 Solo VC), Eric Schmidt (former Google CEO), Prith Banerjee (ANSYS CTO), Ion Stoica (Databricks Founder), Jared Kushner (former Senior Advisor to the President), David Patterson (Turing Award Winner), and Luis Videgaray (former Foreign and Finance Minister of Mexico). We're building foundation AI models for physics that enable end-to-end industrial automation from initial design through optimization, validation, and production.

We're building a high-velocity team of relentless researchers and engineers that will define the next generation of AI for industrial engineering. If you're passionate about AI, physics, or the future of industrial innovation, we want to hear from you.

About the Role

As a founding Full Stack Product Engineer, you'll be in the arena from day one, building the product experiences that put AI physics capabilities into the hands of engineers and customers. This is your chance to build and own the entire product stack, from intuitive simulation interfaces to backend APIs that power complex physics workloads in production.

You'll work directly with the CEO and founding team to build product features that make foundation models accessible to industrial engineers, create interfaces that visualize complex physics simulations, and design workflows that seamlessly integrate AI into existing engineering processes. You're creating new paradigms for how engineers interact with AI-powered physics simulation tools.

What You'll Do

• Build customer-facing applications that make complex physics simulations intuitive and accessible, creating dashboards, visualization tools, and interfaces for foundation model interactions
• Design and implement robust backend APIs that power our product features, handle simulation workflows, and integrate with our ML infrastructure and customer systems
• Own the full product development cycle from concept to production, shipping features that solve real customer problems and working directly with users to iterate based on feedback
• Create data visualization and analytics tools that help engineers understand simulation results, model performance, and physics insights in real-time
• Build fine-tuning and customization interfaces that let customers adapt our foundation models through intuitive UIs without needing to write code or understand ML internals
• Develop integration tools and SDKs that make it easy for customers to embed our physics AI into their existing CAE workflows, design tools, and simulation pipelines
• Design real-time collaboration features that enable engineering teams to work together on simulations, share results, and iterate on designs
• Build customer portals and admin tools for model deployment, usage monitoring, billing, and self-service configuration
• Instrument everything : Build analytics, logging, and observability into every product feature to understand how customers use the product and where they struggle
• Work directly with customers on their workflows, pain points, and feature requests, turning customer conversations into shipped product improvements
• Move fast and ship : Take features from prototype to production in days, not months, iterating based on real customer feedback and usage data

This is a role for someone who loves building product that customers actually use, who can move between frontend polish and backend complexity with ease, and is ready to define what AI-powered physics simulation software looks like.

How We're Different

"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again... who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly." - Teddy Roosevelt

At our core, we believe in being "in the arena." We are builders, problem solvers, and risk-takers who show up every day ready to put in the work : to sweat, to struggle, and to push past our limits. We know that real progress comes with missteps, iteration, and resilience. We embrace that journey fully knowing that daring greatly is the only way to create something truly meaningful.

If you're ready to join the future of physics simulation, push creative boundaries, and deliver impact, UniversalAGI is the place for you.
