You’ll be working with Sam Udotong, CTO @ Fireflies.ai. Sam graduated from MIT in 2016 where he studied computer science and aerospace engineering. He and his co-founder Krish were featured as the cover of Entrepreneur magazine in Sept 2020. He’s been a speaker at the MIT AI Conference 2020 alongside industry leaders like Richard Socher and Sal Khan. He’s guest lectured at Stanford for their intro to AI class. Sam is scrappy & committed – he and Krish bootstrapped the company for 3 years, eating Soylent and Domino’s pizza almost every day. Being Scrappy as an Entrepreneur (Product Demo). He rejected Harvard Business School to build Fireflies. Sam’s goal is to build a multi-regional, boundary-less engineering team that has A+ productivity & communication such that when you go to sleep, you can hand off work and when you wake up, work has already moved forward. If we do these first principles well, we can theoretically build the best engineering organization in the world.

We want to transform how people communicate and work. Come work with us if you share the below values and want to work on hard engineering challenges that will actually make a difference in the lives of people.

We are an equal opportunity employer and strongly value diversity at our company, because our team will be stronger with different perspectives and experiences.
