We are building AI to simulate the world through merging art and science.
We believe that world models are at the frontier of progress in artificial intelligence. Language models alone won’t solve the world’s hardest problems – robotics, disease, scientific discovery. Real progress requires models that experience the world and learn from their mistakes, the same way that humans do. And this kind of trial and error can be massively accelerated when done in simulation, rather than in the real world.
World models offer the most clear path to general-purpose simulation, changing how stories are told, how scientific progress is made and how the next frontiers of humanity are reached.
Our team consists of creative, open minded, caring and ambitious people who are determined to change the world. We aspire to continuously build impossible things and our ability to do so relies on building an incredible team. If you are driven to do the same, we'd love to hear from you.

Metabase is the easiest way for people to get insights from their data, from tiny startups who get up and running quickly to major corporations with tens of thousands of users. That's why people love us.
We bring data tools with the elegance and simplicity of consumer products to the crufty world of enterprise business intelligence. We provide an opinionated open source starting point for how companies should measure, analyze and share their data, which is used by tens of thousands of companies.
And there's so much more to do! We're expanding the product in many directions, and continuously reevaluating decisions we made in the past in order to improve every flow and detail. We want to do that faster and even better, so we're looking for outcome-oriented, seasoned Product Designers to join our core team. At Metabase, design directly drives business success: our customers consistently choose us because of our superior UX — meaning your work will be directly responsible for our growth.
Product designers at Metabase are part of a centralized team, working closely with small teams of engineers to design and ship beautiful, simple solutions from beginning to end.
We have a unique design culture:
We focus on solving root problems rather than applying superficial fixes
We care more about a solution “feeling” right than rigidly adhering to “consistency”
We ship iteratively and value real-world outcomes over “perfect” process or glossy internal artifacts
Recent projects our designers have tackled include:
Creating a completely new Documents feature
Envisioning a new way to view, compare, and explore metrics
Creating patterns and surfaces for LLM-based SQL generation, natural language queries, and asynchronous agentic work
Responsibilities
Deliver end-to-end design solutions that are truly elegant, beautiful, fun, and simple.
Push back on complexity creeping into the product.
Use a variety of mediums to communicate what could or should be done, whether it’s LLM-generated prototypes, writing, Figjam diagrams, or high fidelity concepts and solutions.
Pull on engineers and product thinkers to ensure understanding of technical constraints and possibilities.
Iterate rapidly and broadly in scrappy ways that make abstract ideas tangible and which move conversations forward.
Deeply internalize the needs and mindset of our users through insights provided by the broader team. UX research skills aren't needed, but welcome.
Profile
You think in terms of journeys, not screens.
Biased toward building
things,
not slide decks.
Work out-in-the-open instinctively, out of an eagerness to receive feedback, and to riff and iterate with an experienced, skilled team.
Thorough and attentive to detail, with a high internal bar for your craft.
Strong ability to communicate design decisions and rationales through speaking and writing.
Comfortable with asynchronous collaboration, and articulating complex ideas remotely.
Skills and experience
Depth of experience designing solutions for challenging product problems. Your work will rely on research and analytics, but it will shine because of solid instincts and craftsmanship.
Experience designing specifically for large web applications/tools
Technical enough to understand at a high level what's happening inside the engineering black-boxes. (If you don't understand the complexity, how can you simplify it?)
Bonus Qualifications
Experience with LLM-based UI and interaction prototyping
Experience with Web development (HTML, CSS, React)
Technical background or education (CS degree or similar)
Experience building or using developer tools
Compensation
The US base salary range for this role is $93K–$210K annually, plus equity and benefits.
Compensation is determined by role, level, location, and individual qualifications, including skills, experience, and scope of responsibility. Pay may vary by geographic location and other job-related factors.
Benefits
We offer meaningful equity and a comprehensive US benefits package, including fully employer-covered medical, dental, and vision insurance (with 75% coverage for dependents), a 401(k) with employer match available to enroll after the first 30 days, flexible and unlimited paid time off including sick time, and an asynchronous, remote-first environment.
We're a global team (50% outside the US), fully distributed (from Thailand to California), who get things done asynchronously, with plenty of uninterrupted time, supporting each other to do the best work of our careers. We offer flexibility (define your own schedule and work from wherever you want), autonomy, and an environment that fosters growth, learning, and development. We're relentlessly user-focused and believe in building long-term value, not short-term hacks. And we raised a $30M Series B to take our approach to the next level for years to come.
For U.S. applicants: Metabase participates in the federal E-Verify program, which confirms employment authorization of newly hired U.S. based employees. E-Verify is not used as a tool to pre-screen candidates and is only initiated upon hire.

Teams meet two to four times yearly in person, in interesting locations around the world, to align on strategy and execution.
The company is founder led, profitable and growing.
We are hiring a Cloud Support Engineer to build a career with Canonical and support the technical needs of customers leveraging Ubuntu and open source products. If you have an affinity for open source development and a passion for technology, then you will enjoy working with some of the best people in the industry at Canonical.
While our engineers regularly solve deeply interesting, complex technical problems - from triaging cloud environments to root-cause analysis on unseen Linux kernel crashes - this is fundamentally a role rooted in human connection. You will act as a trusted peer and technical guide to external engineering teams, translating intricate open-source challenges into clear, empathetic solutions. We are rapidly expanding and looking for brilliant problem solvers who are just as passionate about building strong, collaborative relationships with customers as they are about the next generation of Canonical solutions.
Location: This is a globally remote role.

Empathetic Engagement:
Partner directly with customers across remote sessions, ticketing,, and live conversations to deeply understand and resolve their technical roadblocks.
Collaborative Problem Solving:
Work hand-in-hand with internal engineering teams and regional peer groups to bridge the gap between complex code fixes and real-world customer satisfaction.
True Ownership:
Manage your support cases with a strong sense of personal integrity, ensuring commitments are honored and customer expectations are communicated transparently and predictably.
Ubuntu Lifecycle Guidance:
Develop a rich understanding of the Ubuntu development process, empowering you to give customers clear, human context regarding timelines for engineering fixes.
Knowledge Advocacy:
Author and maintain accessible knowledge base articles, ensuring lessons learned are shared openly to elevate the entire open-source community.
Operational Reliability:
Participate in a regular weekend working rotation to maintain seamless, high-touch continuity of care for our global partners.
What are we looking for in you
Communication Excellence:
Exceptional written and spoken English, with a natural ability to convey technical complexity clearly, warmly, and compellingly.
The Soft-Skill Edge:
A genuine passion for helping people, paired with the emotional intelligence to navigate high-stakes technical situations with composure and empathy.
Academic Dedication:
Exceptional academic track record from both high school and university.
Educational Background:
An undergraduate degree in a technical subject or a compelling narrative about your alternative chosen path.
Driven Mindset:
A proven track record of going above-and-beyond expectations to deliver meaningful, outstanding results for teams or customers.
Linux & Cloud Familiarity:
Practical, hands-on experience supporting Linux systems, with an exposure to three or more of the following:
Virtualization & Cloud:
Using KVM or OpenStack.
Containers:
primarily Docker, LXD/LXC, or Kubernetes.
Storage Ecosystems:
Block, object, and network storage technologies.
System Networking:
Navigating bonding, firewalls, bridging, switching, or MTU tuning.

A strong troubleshooting mindset—the ability to look into stack traces or logs, identify OS/application-level bugs, and strategically guide the customer through next steps.
Development Fundamentals:
Basic programming logic in any language to help parse code and collaborate effectively with Canonical Engineering teams.
