Job Description:
About Air Space Intelligence ASI's mission-critical technology
powers decision-making across aviation, defense, energy, and other
critical infrastructure domains. Backed by top-tier investors
including Andreessen Horowitz, Spark Capital, and Renegade
Partners, ASI delivers operational decision superiority—compressing
days of analysis into seconds of action. ASI is leading the way and
pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. What you will do: Your
responsibilities will span from conceptualizing and building
innovative products from scratch (0 to 1) to enhancing and
optimizing existing solutions as they evolve (1 to n). You will
operate in a dynamic and fast-paced environment, where you will
have the opportunity to shape and set the standards for excellence.
You will work with a cross-functional team, including end-users,
other engineers, and deployment strategists. You will solve real
problems that make a difference, providing decision-making tools to
end users and improving the safety of our airspace. What we value:
Proficiency in at least one modern programming language. We work in
Rust and Python and expect you to have the foundation to quickly
learn these languages. At senior levels: experience in building and
maintaining high-performance, scalable systems. Proficient in
leveraging modern LLM tools to accelerate development workflows and
enhance code quality. Ability to collaborate with others across
multiple teams. An aptitude to lead and work independently. Ability
to travel. Flexibility to adjust to changing business priorities.
Curiosity and a drive to grow. Ability to obtain security
clearance. How do we hire: We look at the interview process not as
a screening or test, but rather as an opportunity to simulate what
it would look like working together. We build the interview process
around you. In case you’re interested in taking a shortcut through
our application process - try a little puzzle on for size. Below
you’ll find an array of bytes. Once decoded, it will reveal the
hiring manager’s e-mail. Send an e-mail with the subject “Squawk!”
and we’ll get in touch right away! Send in your code as well!
[35,44,47,36,33,13,44,36,63,62,61,44,46,40,96,36,35,57,40,33,33,36,42,40,35,46,40,99,46,34,32]
Each character in the hiring manager’s email was translated into
the byte array above by first converting each character into its
Unicode integer representation, and then XOR’ing each integer with
a secret key. In order to find the key - you’ll have to do some
aviation research into squawk codes. Specifically - the key will be
the squawk code used to signal a generic emergency, with any
leading or trailing 0’s trimmed out. Happy decoding!
