Who We Are.

Wynd Labs is an early-stage startup that is on a mission to make public web data accessible for AI through contributions to Grass.

Grass is a network sharing application that allows users to share their unused bandwidth. Effectively, this is a residential proxy network that directly rewards individual residential IPs for the bandwidth they provide. Grass will route traffic equitably among its network and meter the amount of data that each node provides to fairly distribute rewards.

In non-technical terms: Grass unlocks everyone's ability to earn rewards by simply sharing their unused internet bandwidth on personal devices (laptops, smartphones).

This project is for those who lead with initiative and seek to challenge themselves and thrive on curiosity.

We operate with a lean, highly motivated team who revel in the responsibility that comes with autonomy. We have a flat organizational structure, the people making decisions are also the ones implementing them. We are driven by ambitious goals and a strong sense of urgency. Leadership is given to those who show initiative, consistently deliver excellence and bring the best out of those around them. Join us if you want to set the tone for a fair and equitable internet.

The Role.

We are looking for a Machine Learning Engineer who is skilled and has significant experience in developing machine learning models. You will join a small, innovative team and lead efforts to advance our capabilities, drive model development, and support our vision for a future where Grass is transformative in the evolution of the internet.
