Join the founding team

Lore is building sovereign AI systems designed for resilience, reliability, and governance. Our work sits at the intersection of physical infrastructure, distributed systems, and national-scale deployment.

We're assembling a small founding team to design and operate critical AI infrastructure, not consumer apps. This is early, foundational work with real-world constraints and long-term consequences.

Open roles

Founding Architect, Sovereign AI Systems

Location: Palo Alto · Type: Full-time, founding team

Overview

Lore is building a distributed AI compute system designed to operate across multiple secured sites, with intelligent redundancy, strong isolation guarantees, and centralized control.

We're hiring a Founding Architect to help define the end-to-end system architecture. This role is not about filling in boxes on a predetermined diagram. It's about making first-principles decisions across compute, storage, networking, security, and control, and turning those decisions into a system that can actually be built and operated.

You'll work directly with the CEO to shape the technical blueprint for Lore's platform.

What you'll work on

  • Designing the architecture for a distributed AI compute system spanning multiple sites and regions
  • Defining approaches to availability, failover, isolation, and workload placement under real-world constraints
  • Shaping the control plane that coordinates infrastructure, policy, telemetry, and lifecycle management
  • Establishing security and trust primitives, including hardware identity and attestation strategies
  • Producing reference architectures that can be deployed repeatedly as the system scales

Who this is for

  • Engineers with deep experience in distributed systems, HPC, or infrastructure at scale
  • People comfortable bridging physical infrastructure and software control layers
  • Engineers who have designed systems where reliability and failure modes actually matter
  • Prior founding or early-stage experience is a plus, but not required

This is a founding role with meaningful equity and direct influence over Lore's technical direction.

Regional Infrastructure Operations Lead (Bay Area)

Location: Palo Alto, with travel · Type: Full-time

Overview

Lore is deploying and operating secured AI compute facilities in multiple regions. We're hiring a Regional Infrastructure Operations Lead to oversee day-to-day operations across several sites in Northern California and nearby regions.

This role blends facility operations, physical security, vendor coordination, and incident response for mission-critical systems.

What you'll work on

  • Operating and maintaining multiple secured infrastructure sites
  • Overseeing power, cooling, networking, and physical security systems
  • Coordinating contractors, utilities, and service providers
  • Supporting commissioning and expansion of new sites
  • Handling incidents and coordinating with engineering teams during failures

Who this is for

  • Operators with experience in data centers, telecom infrastructure, HPC, or other mission-critical environments
  • People comfortable owning uptime and making decisions under pressure
  • Experience with regulated or high-security environments is a plus
