Founding Solutions Engineer

We’re looking to bring on our first Solutions Engineer to round out our founding team.

About us

The way information on the internet is consumed is changing. It's shifting from humans searching pre-crawled information on Google to AI agents doing real-time targeted crawling from sources of truth. But, there’s no “Google” for AI agents… yet.

That’s where we come in. At Crustdata, we are building the gateway to the internet for AI agents. We already serve over 150 customers, are profitable and growing very fast. We're backed by some of the best investors in Silicon Valley including Y Combinator, General Catalyst, SV Angel, A Capital and Liquid 2 Ventures.

Our mission: To be the way AI agents use and interface with the internet.

We’re looking for our first Solutions Engineer. This is a great opportunity to learn, take ownership, and set a foundation for rapid career growth.
