With an array of advanced engineering degrees, a suite of publications and patents, and the skill to speak—and program—in multiple languages, we know BrightAI attracts smart staff who are passionate about our mission and vision.
We are grateful to have the best and the brightest on our team. Not only do we have some of the most intelligent and inquisitive engineers in the AI and IoT space; but we also pride ourselves on building a very special environment for those who seek opportunities to learn, collaborate, solve challenges, and leave a lasting mark on the world.
Sammi Tafoya explored computer sciences in high school and college to find out where she wanted to go. She knows eight programming languages—of which JavaScript is an old favorite. “Because it has been around for so long, there's a lot of projects that are built off of it and there's a lot of libraries, so you don't have to waste your time doing little things just to get it up and running. You can focus more on doing cool things with it. Every day, I learn different things and work on personal projects, like building websites, to get more experience.”
“BrightAI is not about AI for the sake of AI; it's helping business cases, which I think is really cool. Traditionally, I wouldn't really care what goes on in the laundry room or how people measure pools, but our teams create these solutions and it’s amazing the impact we have on these industries. Sammi is based in New York and enjoys the opportunity to visit customers in person for working sessions. She said that leading tech demos and seeing reactions and questions is both rewarding and motivating.
BrightAI is Sammi’s third start-up. ”When I interviewed here, I really liked the people I spoke with. It’s a really fun place to work. I'm technically a front-end engineer, but I'm getting to do a little bit of cloud work. I get to try my hand at a bunch of different things and work with people who, in a big company, I wouldn't traditionally get to work with. I can call on senior staff who have helped me with unexpected problems.
“I've never worked a fully remote job, but I do like it and I appreciate the steps BrightAI makes to get people all connected. It’s been so great; I don’t want to ever go back to work in person again because this has been a really good experience.”
We are thankful to be able to harness the imagination, skills, and experience of our talented engineers to deliver real world solutions to technological problems in multiple industries.
