Founding Engineer

Introduction

About us **At deeplify, we’re building the first AI-native asset integrity co-pilot for critical industrial infrastructure.

We turn inspection data from pipelines, chemical plants, ships, and bridges into real-time, risk- based maintenance decisions - automatically. We combine a digital inspection platform with proprietary deep-learning models and an evolving agentic AI system that learns from asset integrity engineers. This shifts asset integrity from slow, analogue, document-driven processes to a proactive, software-defined, and increasingly autonomous system.

Join us if you want to build AI for heavy industries - replacing outdated workflows and delivering direct impact on safety, reliability, and efficiency at scale. With the foundations in place, we are looking for top talent to scale deeplify into a category-defining industrial AI company.
