Residency (Summer 2026)

Purpose

This 10-16 week, full time program, based in our San Francisco office, offers recent graduates and early career professionals a chance to gain meaningful experience at a fast growing AI startup.

Responsibilities

• Sprinting to build new agentic CAD features requested by our customers
• Developing novel UI components to interface with CAD through an agent
• BUILDING GYMS AND TRAINING MODELS WITH RL FOR SPECIFIC CAD SKILLS
• OPTIMIZING MODEL HOSTING/INFERENCE FOR MORE ROBUST GENERATIONS

Qualifications

• You enjoy building great technology alongside passionate teammates
• You thrive when given ownership, responsibility and open-ended problems
• You’re excited by the idea of having practically endless compute to experiment

Benefits

• We are in-person at the Adam House in the SF Marina, powered by green tea, lots of natural light, and a wall of 3D printers
• We just wrapped up YC’s W25 batch, built a state-of-the-art text-to-CAD interface, and had one of the most viral YC launches of all time

Skills

• Experience with machine learning
• Strong problem-solving skills
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team

About the Role

Adam is an applied research and product lab building the future of computer-aided design, where engineers will be able to speak physical objects into existence. With Adam, you’ll use AI to complete design tasks end-to-end. For example, select a face and say, “Add mounting holes matching the bolt pattern from the other part, with identical diameters, spacing, and offsets,” and Adam handles the geometry, selects standard hardware, and outputs production-ready CAD.
