How we're combating climate change: AI-Powered Climate Tech

A customer story: Ben & Jerry's uses H2Ok's precision automation to cut time & water usage

There are many easier places to work on AI. Laminar is for people who want the hardest version of their discipline. Models here must survive contact with physics. Hardware must survive years of continuous industrial operation. Software must integrate with machinery built decades ago. Everything we build ultimately has to work on a factory floor. We believe exceptional people should be given exceptional amounts of ownership. At Laminar, you will have the context to form your own view, the permission to challenge ours, and the resources to pursue the right answers, whatever technical or organizational boundaries stand in the way. There are few layers between identifying something important and changing it. We’re fortunate to work with a small polymathic team of hardware and software engineers, chemists, AI researchers, factory operators, and go-to-market wizards who are unusually capable, curious, rigorous, ambitious, and low-ego. If that sounds like you, we’d love to meet you. Our Interview Process 1. Phone screen with Laminar HR/Recruiter (15-20 minutes) 2. Intro call with Hiring Manager (30 minutes) 3. On-site interview, overview of tech, and interview/presentation with the Hiring Manager and a few team members. Depending on the role, a skills exercise that should take no longer than an hour to prep, would be sent ahead of time. We record your skills exercise to share with any team members who could not join the interview and/or with Founder's ahead of their Founder's Interview. If you are not local, we can conduct this virtually. 4. Finalists for Full-Time positions will have a Founder’s Interview in-person Final steps: Two professional references are requested, ideally one from your current organization and one who served as your Manager If an Offer Letter is extended, a Background check is conducted Laminar is committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. Even if you are unsure you are a perfect fit, we strongly encourage you to apply! If you're ready to play a key role in scaling a game-changing company that’s transforming the industrial sector and advancing sustainability, we want to hear from you. * Please ensure you add the runlaminar.com domain to your safe senders list to ensure you receive our communications.
