Mission
Dedalus Labs is an AI research neolab building infrastructure for AI agents.
We’re building the persistent compute layer that powers the next generation of autonomous software. Our platform spans virtualization, distributed systems, storage, networking, orchestration, and low-level runtime infrastructure. Every millisecond, every sys-call, every scheduling decision matters.
We’re looking for systems engineers who enjoy understanding computers all the way down.
You might be a fit if you
- Think abstractions are useful because you understand what’s underneath them.
- Care about latency, throughput, memory usage, and tail performance.
- Enjoy debugging problems that take days to understand and minutes to fix.
- Believe reliability is a feature.
- Think distributed systems are fun rather than frightening.
- Get excited reading kernel commits, infrastructure blogs, or systems papers.
- Have strong opinions about operating systems, virtualization, networking, or storage.
- Like making difficult systems feel simple.
- Measure before optimizing, then optimize relentlessly.
- View performance engineering as product engineering.
- Believe the best infrastructure disappears into the background.
- Are high agency and fiercely independent.
- Say how things ought to be built, then build them.
- Are a competitive teammate with a heart of gold.
- Are hungry to learn, improve, and reflect deeply on feedback.
