The world will be unrecognisable in 5 years.
Machine learning models are driving our cars, testing our eyesight, detecting our cancer, giving sight to the blind, giving speech to the mute, and dictating what we consume, enjoy, and think. These AI systems are already an integral part of our lives and will shape our future as a species.
Soon, we'll conjure unlimited content: from never-ending TV series (where we’re the main character) to personalised tutors that are infinitely patient and leave no student behind. We’ll augment our memories with foundation models—individually tailored to us through RLHF and connected directly to our thoughts via Brain-Machine Interfaces—blurring the lines between organic and machine intelligence and ushering in the next generation of human development.
This future demands immense, globally accessible, uncensorable, computational power. Gensyn is the machine learning compute protocol that translates machine learning compute into an always-on commodity resource—outside of centralised control and as ubiquitous as electricity—accelerating AI progress and ensuring that this revolutionary technology is accessible to all of humanity through a free market.
Our Principles:
AUTONOMY
- Don’t ask for permission - we have a constraint culture, not a permission culture.
- Claim ownership of any work stream and set its goals/deadlines, rather than waiting to be assigned work or relying on job specs.
- Push & pull context on your work rather than waiting for information from others and assuming people know what you’re doing.
- No middle managers - we don’t (and will likely never) have middle managers.
FOCUS
- Small team - misalignment and politics scale super-linearly with team size. Small protocol teams rival much larger traditional teams.
- Thin protocol - build and design thinly.
- Reject waste - guard the company’s time, rather than wasting it in meetings without clear purpose/focus, or bikeshedding.
REJECT MEDIOCRITY
- Give direct feedback to everyone immediately rather than avoiding unpopularity, expecting things to improve naturally, or trading short-term pain for extreme long-term pain.
- Embrace an extreme learning rate rather than assuming limits to your ability/knowledge.
- No quit - push to the final outcome, despite any barriers.
The role:
- Deliver consumer AI applications powered by the Gensyn network
Responsibilities:
- Collaborate cross-functionally to define requirements for Gensyn’s first consumer-facing product.
- Establish the architecture and tech stack for the first consumer-facing application built on Gensyn’s decentralised AI network.
- Develop and operationally support web applications for Gensyn users and community members.
Competencies:
Must have
- Experience delivering world-class web-based user experiences.
- Understanding of modern TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
- Expertise in at least one modern backend technology (Node, Golang, Python, etc).
Should have
- Python familiarity, or at least a willingness to learn how to integrate with Gensyn’s Python SDK.
- Experience designing data models, APIs, and service-oriented architectures.
- Experience operating web servers, services, and databases in production.
- Experience scaling applications in a high-growth startup environment.
Nice to have
- Previous machine learning experience
- Interest in crypto and decentralised applications.
