Overview


Pulse is tackling one of the most persistent challenges in data infrastructure: extracting accurate, structured information from complex documents at scale. We have a breakthrough approach to document understanding that combines intelligent schema mapping with fine-tuned extraction models where legacy OCR and other parsing tools consistently fail.

We are a small, fast-growing team of engineers in San Francisco powering Fortune 100 enterprises, YC startups, public investment firms, and growth-stage companies. We are backed by tier 1 investors and growing quickly.

What makes our tech special is our multi-stage architecture:

  • Layout understanding with specialized component detection models

  • Low-latency OCR models for targeted extraction

  • Advanced reading-order algorithms for complex structures

  • Proprietary table structure recognition and parsing

  • Fine-tuned vision-language models for charts, tables, and figures

If you are passionate about the intersection of computer vision, NLP, and data infrastructure, your work at Pulse will directly impact customers and shape the future of document intelligence.

What we are looking for

  • 5 days in-office at our San Francisco office

  • Eager to learn and adapt quickly

  • Prior startup or founding experience is a plus

About the Role
Own front end development for core workflows. Take features from Figma to production and work closely with product, ML, and customer teams.

Responsibilities

  • Build React components and data visualizations

  • Create UX for QA, field-level accuracy, and usage analytics

  • Maintain a design system and accessibility standards

  • Run user research and ship improvements quickly

  • Contribute to product copy and documentation

Requirements

  • 3+ years shipping front end products with React and TypeScript

  • Strong product design instincts and prototyping skills

  • Ability to work across design and implementation

Nice to have

  • Figma and d3 or similar charting libraries

Sponsorship
