About Squint

AI-powered platform for frontline operations across manufacturing, energy, and field service. Capture knowledge, guide execution, and drive continuous improvement at scale. Backed by Sequoia and Menlo.

About the role

Squint is building the AI agent that makes continuous improvement truly continuous. Record 18 minutes of a changeover on a phone and, without a word of narration, our Lean Manufacturing Agent hands back a complete time and motion study: every segment of work identified, classified against all seven forms of waste, and broken out into a work instruction. That used to take a consultant, a stopwatch, and several weeks. Nothing has been able to do this before.
