The fastest inference for open models. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
Wafer is a very small team growing extremely quickly. At our size, there are constantly important things that do not cleanly belong to any one function. Today, many of those things end up with the CEO.
What they're looking for
- You are extremely high agency. When something is unclear, your instinct is to figure it out rather than wait for instructions
- You are unusually organized and detail-oriented. Things do not disappear when they are handed to you
- You have excellent judgment and know when to make a decision yourself versus pull someone else in
- You are comfortable switching between very different kinds of work in the same day
- You are scrappy. You solve problems with the minimum amount of process necessary
- You communicate extremely clearly and can represent Wafer well with customers, candidates, investors, and partners

The next it might mean figuring out a new office, running a recruiting process, preparing for an investor meeting, or turning a messy strategic question into a clear decision.
You should be the kind of person we can hand an incomplete thought to and trust that it will come back finished.
