Build causal AI that engineers actually trust.

We’re a small team building the Causal Intelligence Platform for Semiconductors - one causal engine and one knowledge graph behind every diagnosis, process correction, and resolution. Come build the AI that engineers on the line actually trust.

The mission

Work on problems that stop a fab in its tracks.

When a tool goes down in the field, the clock and the margin both bleed. We build the agentic causal AI that traces a failure to its true root cause in minutes, not days - and keeps that hard-won knowledge in a system the customer owns.

It’s frontier AI aimed at problems that matter, for customers who feel every hour you save them. Expect meaningful equity, direct access to customers and leadership, and the scope to own real work from day one.

Life at ThirdAI

Small team, real problems, direct impact.

We stay small on purpose - so ideas move fast, ownership runs deep, and your work ships to real fabs.

Ship to real fabs

Your work runs on live semiconductor tools, judged by the engineers who depend on it - not a demo.

Own your surface

Small team, wide scope. You own a product surface end to end and talk to the customers who use it.

Learn in the open

Deep domain experts and frontier ML in one room - causal reasoning, agents, and knowledge graphs on hard physical data.

Benefits

Great work, backed by real support.

Competitive salary and meaningful equity

We pay competitively, and every hire gets real ownership in what we’re building together.

Comprehensive health, dental, and vision

Coverage for you and your family, so you can put your focus where it matters.

Remote-first and async-friendly

Work where you do your best thinking. We optimize for deep focus over hours online.

Flexible time off

Take the time you need to recharge - we measure impact, not attendance.

Direct access to customers and leadership

No layers between you, the engineers using the product, and the people building the company.

Frontier AI on real fab-floor problems

Causal reasoning, agents, and knowledge graphs, pointed at problems that stop production lines.

FAQ

Questions from the fab floor.

How is Causal Intelligence different from correlation-based analytics?

It models cause and effect across your operational knowledge graph, so you get the true driver with the evidence behind it - not just a correlated signal that leaves engineers guessing.

How long does a pilot take?

A typical pilot runs 60-90 days on your own operational data, with measurable impact on RCA cycle time by the end of the engagement.

Where does our data live?

Deploy in your VPC or fully on-prem / air-gapped - data never leaves your environment. We hold SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and CCPA.

Which systems does it connect to?

MES, SPC/FDC, historians, EDA & yield, PLM, CMMS, and ticketing - all feed the CIP Core evidence layer through standard connectors.

Do we need a data-science team to run it?

No. Enterprise MLOps governs fab-specific models for you, so engineers work inside the resolution workflow instead of notebooks.

Don’t see your role?

We’re always looking for people who love hard, physical problems - semiconductors, causal reasoning, agents. Tell us what you’d build.
