About Nous Research

Nous Research is a decentralized AI startup that focuses on developing open-source, human-centric artificial intelligence models and tools. Backed by Delphi Ventures.

About the role

Nous is building at the frontier of agentic AI, and we’re looking for a Support Engineer to own the critical interface between our users and the systems behind that work. You’ll solve issues hands-on, drive fixes with engineers, and build the tooling, automation, and feedback loops that help support scale with a fast-moving product.

What they're looking for

  • Experience in technical support or support engineering within a medium to large support organization, with strong organizational habits and polished customer communication
  • A track record of understanding complex software systems and methodically investigating unfamiliar technical problems
  • Practical coding skills and experience building useful scripts, personal tools, or internal utilities
  • Strong judgment about what to resolve independently, when to involve engineers, and how to make an escalation actionable
  • Clear, empathetic communication with both technical and nontechnical users, including when an issue is unresolved or priorities change
  • Consistent follow-through: you track commitments, coordinate handoffs, and close the loop without repeated reminders
