Build the Future of Subsurface Intelligence

We are a small team of engineers, ML researchers, and geoscientists solving hard problems at the intersection of energy and AI. Come build infrastructure that matters.

Test failures at merge

Built by engineers who take testing personally. 20,000+ automated tests, industry-leading test coverage, and 500+ Design-by-Contract assertions (Meyer 1997) mean every PR ships with mathematical confidence.

Engineering Culture

How We Build

Four beliefs that shape every design decision, PR, and incident response.

Test everything

20,000+ automated tests, zero failures at merge, industry-leading test coverage. Design-by-Contract assertions on every critical component. We treat the test suite as production infrastructure.

Ship with confidence

Every PR requires passing CI, a code review, and an architectural fit check. We move fast because our safety nets are strong — not in spite of them.

Compliance by design

SOC 2, GDPR, EPA Class VI, and FedRAMP controls are built into the architecture. Cryptographic audit chains, SPC control charts, and zero-trust networking — not bolt-ons.

Own the outcome

You build it, you run it, you measure it. End-to-end ownership from design through production monitoring. On-call is light because we invest in reliability upfront.

Join the Team

All roles include competitive compensation, meaningful equity, full benefits, and the option to work remotely.

Senior ML Engineer

Machine LearningHouston / Remote

Full-time

Take research papers to production ONNX. You will own 3D U-Net denoising, Conv-VAE anomaly detection, and foundation-model inference — all with quantified uncertainty and cryptographic audit trails.

What you will do

Implement and optimize 3D convolutional architectures for seismic volumes
Build ONNX export pipelines with INT8 quantization (Jacob 2018)
Develop MC Dropout uncertainty quantification (Gal & Ghahramani 2016)
Design active-learning loops and model retraining pipelines

What you bring

Expert-level PyTorch and ONNX Runtime
Experience with 3D conv architectures (U-Net, VAE, transformers)
Uncertainty quantification: MC Dropout, deep ensembles
Publication track record or equivalent production ML depth

Platform Engineer

InfrastructureHouston / Remote

Full-time

Own the reliability of a multi-service platform on Azure AKS. You will build and operate the circuit breakers, SLO burn-rate alerts, and chaos engineering framework that underwrite our 99.9% SLA.

What you will do

Manage Kubernetes clusters, Helm charts, and Terraform modules
Build SLO monitoring with error budgets and burn-rate alerts
Design and execute chaos engineering experiments (fault injection)
Automate incident response, runbooks, and post-mortem process

What you bring

Kubernetes and Helm at scale; Terraform for Azure
Prometheus, Grafana, and alerting pipeline design
On-call experience with structured incident response
Experience with Cosmos DB, Event Hubs, or equivalent

Staff Geophysicist

GeoscienceHouston

Full-time

Bridge the gap between subsurface science and software. You will define interpretation quality gates, validate ML model outputs against well control, and ensure our CCS monitoring satisfies EPA Class VI.

What you will do

Define quality gates and acceptance criteria for ML interpretation
Validate model outputs against well data and synthetic benchmarks
Design CCS monitoring workflows for EPA Class VI and EU GeoStorage compliance
Author technical content, white papers, and customer-facing documentation

What you bring

MS or PhD in Geophysics, Geology, or Reservoir Engineering
Seismic interpretation: horizons, faults, AVO/AVA, 4D time-lapse
Familiarity with CCS monitoring or enhanced recovery
Comfortable reviewing Python code and pairing with engineers

Frontend Engineer

ProductHouston / Remote

Full-time

Build the Bloomberg Terminal for seismic interpretation. You will create real-time data visualisations, keyboard-driven workflows (WAI-ARIA 1.2), and accessibility-first UI in Plotly Dash and Next.js.

What you will do

Build interactive seismic data visualisations with WebGL and Plotly
Implement keyboard-driven workflows compliant with WAI-ARIA 1.2
Design real-time collaboration features with WebSocket streaming
Optimise performance for 50 GB+ volume rendering (virtual scrolling)

What you bring

React / TypeScript or Plotly Dash production experience
Data visualisation with large or streaming datasets
WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility knowledge
Performance optimisation: virtual scrolling, canvas/WebGL, WebSocket

Security Engineer

SecurityHouston / Remote

Full-time

Own security engineering across the stack. You will harden our multi-tenant platform against OWASP threats, maintain our SOC 2 Type II posture, and run red-team exercises against the CCS audit chain.

What you will do

Implement and audit OWASP ASVS controls across all microservices
Maintain SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and FedRAMP compliance artefacts
Run red-team / penetration testing on tenant isolation boundaries
Design secure SDLC gates: SAST, DAST, dependency scanning in CI

What you bring

OWASP ASVS, NIST SP 800-53, SOC 2 practical experience
Cloud security: Azure IAM, network policy, key management
Penetration testing and threat modelling (STRIDE/PASTA)
CISSP, OSCP, or equivalent certification a plus

Values

What We Believe

Hard problems

Streaming terabytes through ML pipelines with cryptographic audit chains is not CRUD. We attract people who find that exciting.

Real impact

Our CCS monitoring helps sequester CO₂ safely. Our interpretation tools help find the energy the world needs during the transition.

Engineering craft

SPC control charts, Design-by-Contract, RFC-cited algorithms. We believe rigour and velocity are complementary, not competing.
