About Eventual Computing
At Eventual Computing, we understand that cutting-edge AI applications—from foundational models to autonomous vehicles—demand the ability to process vast amounts of images, video, and complex datasets. Unfortunately, current data platforms, such as Databricks and Snowflake, are primarily designed for traditional spreadsheet analytics, making them ill-equipped for the petabytes of multimodal data that drive AI innovations. This inefficiency results in teams spending valuable time on fragile infrastructure instead of advancing their research and developing their core products.
Founded in 2022, our mission is to revolutionize data querying, making it as intuitive as working with tables while ensuring it can scale to meet production demands. Our open-source engine, Daft, is tailored for real-world AI systems, adept at coordinating with external APIs, managing GPU clusters, and addressing failures that traditional engines struggle with. Daft is already powering essential workloads for industry leaders like Amazon, Mobileye, Together AI, and CloudKitchens.
Our team comprises top-tier talent from renowned organizations including Databricks, AWS, Nvidia, Pinecone, GitHub Copilot, and Tesla. Having quadrupled in size within a year, we are backed by Series A and seed funding from prestigious investors like Felicis, CRV, Microsoft M12, Citi, Essence, Y Combinator, Caffeinated Capital, Array.vc, and prominent angels including co-founders of Databricks and Perplexity. We are excited to expand our team further—this is just the beginning for Eventual Computing.
We invite enthusiastic individuals to join our close-knit team, working collaboratively four days a week in our San Francisco Mission District office.
