Software Engineer - Full-stack

Realm is an AI-driven platform transforming mining operations by reducing costly downtime and boosting operational efficiency. Realm integrates with existing cameras, sensors, control systems, and data repositories to predict equipment failures, detect unsafe behaviors, and orchestrate real-time responses, preventing the majority of failures before they occur.

Our culture values high agency, deep ownership, collaboration, and autonomy across a fully remote workforce. Teams here move quickly and make meaningful contributions to a product that shapes global industrial outcomes.
