About Us
TrakAI is revolutionizing the collision repair and ADAS calibration industry by building the first AI-driven calibration and compliance platform designed specifically for collision centers, ADAS calibration companies, and the technicians who power them. We are creating the operating platform of record for an industry that has been underserved by technology, enabling shops to automate calibration mapping, documentation, and compliance workflows at scale. By leveraging proprietary datasets and machine intelligence, we are transforming fragmented, manual processes into seamless, data-driven operations. Backed by leading venture investors and scaling aggressively, this is your opportunity to help build the platform that will define the future of automotive repair and calibration.

You must bring high emotional intelligence, a relentless customer focus, and the ability to dive deeply into technical challenges without losing sight of the bigger picture. This is not a role for someone content with checking off tasks; we need a product-minded engineer who thrives on empathy, creativity, and turning complex customer pain points into breakthrough front-end experiences.
