Who we are

Odyssey is an AI lab pioneering general world models: causal, multimodal systems that learn to predict and interact with the world over long horizons. This foundational technology promises to revolutionize robotics, science, healthcare, education, gaming, defense, and beyond.

Odyssey’s founders previously pioneered the most complex application of physical AI: self-driving cars. They’ve now brought together a world-class research team from DeepMind, Tesla, Waymo, Meta, Apple, and Wayve, who have made significant contributions to language models (DeepMind Gemini), video models (DeepMind Veo), world models (Wayve GAIA), and autonomous systems (Tesla FSD).

Odyssey has raised significant venture capital from GV, Amazon, AMD, EQT, NVIDIA, Natural Capital, In-Q-Tel, Elad Gil, Jeff Dean, Guillermo Rauch, Garry Tan, Kyle Vogt, and researchers from OpenAI, DeepMind, MSL, Recursive, and Thinking Machines.

What we're looking for

This role owns how Odyssey's technology becomes a coherent, powerful product in the hands of developers and partners. You will define and drive the roadmap across product experience, platform capabilities, research, and translate real-world usage into clear priorities. You will ensure the company is building the right things, in the right order.

You will operate with significant scope and trust, working directly with the leadership and partnering closely with research and engineering. This role requires strong product judgment, execution discipline, and comfort operating with ambiguity.

The right person thinks in systems, has strong opinions, and can hold both people and plans accountable.

What you'll do
  • Drive execution across research, applied engineering, and platform teams.

  • Translate user and product signals into insights that meaningfully inform research direction and prioritization.

  • Help shape how world models are productized and understood, grounded in real behavior rather than theory.

  • Bring structure and operating cadence to complex, cross-functional initiatives.

  • Identify leverage points where small product or system changes unlock outsized developer success.

  • Partner directly with customers and external developers; run case studies and deep dives into real applications.

Who you are
  • You feel passionate about frontier research problems and building in fresh domains like world models.

  • You’ve owned and shipped technically complex products end-to-end, and you’re accountable for outcomes.

  • You’re comfortable operating at the intersection of research, engineering, and real users.

  • You bring strong program management instincts and can drive clarity, momentum, and delivery.

  • You have sharp product judgment and are confident forming and defending strong opinions.

  • You can reason from messy, ambiguous signals to clear decisions and priorities.
