Overview

Jua's mission is to create artificial general intelligence (AGI). Our product uses a foundational Earth systems model to predict atmospheric events. It’s more accurate, faster, and updates more frequently than current weather models, making it valuable for traders in weather-dependent power markets. These benefits are crucial during extreme weather events like hurricanes and cyclones. As we scale the model, more applications will become possible, including wildfire, flood, and vegetation prediction.

By joining our talented multidisciplinary team, you'll help shape our culture of ambition, transparent communication, and rapid iteration. We offer exciting challenges, creative freedom, fair pay, and generous stock options.
