About the Role
About Exa We raised a $250M Series C to build the search engine for AIs. Led by a16z, with existing investors Benchmark, Lightspeed, and YC doubling down, the round brings Exa's valuation to $2.2 billion. Exa is building a search engine for the AI era. Our Search API currently powers Agents, Fortune 500s, and AI labs as we transform an industry that hasn't been disrupted since the 90s. We're a largely SF-based team of ~100 from Harvard, MIT, Meta, Google Research, ex-founders, and dropouts alike. We are rapidly building the most intelligent search engine in history. We're high agency, low-ego, and united by the feeling that this is one of the last problems worth getting right.

As a Principal Field Engineer, you work across the whole business: every region, every segment, presales and post-sales.

You'll spend a lot of time where developers are, and a lot of time on a plane. This is not a slideware role. You are an engineer who builds, teaches and shows. In this role, you will: Build the demos the whole team uses : flagship demos, sample apps, cookbooks and reference architectures that show Exa on real problems, and keep them current as the product ships Design and deliver workshops , hands-on labs and technical webinars for prospects, customers and developer communities, and package them so any Field Engineer can run them Create on-demand training content : video tutorials, self-paced cours
