Lantern is building AI-powered revenue intelligence—autonomous agents that turn cold outreach into warm conversations. We detect buying signals across your tech stack, prioritize opportunities, and help B2B sales teams focus on deals that actually close. We're early, agentic-first, and moving fast.
Senior Software Engineer: You'll own complex technical problems end-to-end—translating customer needs into scalable architecture, optimizing AI model efficiency through prompt engineering, and shipping features that directly impact how revenue teams operate. We want bold ideas and people who push boundaries.
Junior Software Engineer: You'll work across our stack (Python, FastAPI, Next.js, React) alongside senior engineers, contributing to real features from day one. Great fit if you're hungry to learn, ship fast, and grow with a startup building cutting-edge agentic systems.
New Grad Software Engineer: Entry point for recent grads excited about AI and agentic systems.
You'll get hands-on experience with our modern data stack (Postgres, ElasticSearch, ClickHouse, DuckDB), Kubernetes/AWS deployment, and Temporal.io, pi.dev, context engineering, workflow orchestration while shipping production code.
This role is based in our Manhattan office (4 days/week in-person). Full health and dental coverage.
Great UI cult could be an early pre-ai phenomena , not a lost decade.
you will need 100 times less of front end , if any action can be asked or explain in voice, text or video or slides always custom to your request. you don't need navigation complex forms to structure. just text, animation to wait, and a few way to embed more complex structures, like text and basic html with charts.
this sounds like "almost ui" but in reality it's not. this is text + some custom visuzalizations adhoc.
it's not that huge of a deal if you compare commercial costs in china and cheapest us states, and electricity is only one of the factors.
The real reason: anthropic + openai just cut the reasoning output to prevent distill, and hence you see the rise of chinese models to establish contracts globally .
And their disk-based caching is amazing. I got a long 700k context session spanning more than a week, with pauses in between that was longer than a day, and some rewinds mixed in as well.
Anthropic's caching requires you to pay a $0.75/Mtok for Sonnet and $1.25/MTok for Opus as a surcharge on top of the original input token cost. It's not even automatic.
If you are reading ~8 times (8 total back and forth tool calls) that means that cache reads in some sense cost ~$0.4 / M toks (Amortizing the write surcharge over all reads).
It's really quite ridiculously expensive considering what you are paying for is some residence on a VRAM that sometimes gets offloaded to NVMe.
maybe i need to give it second chance, surprisingly Kimi 2.6 consistently fail even to generate valid json plan, where gemma 4 was doing really good, but slow.
i've been trying that, in reality every time you try to save it, it's not worth it, the cost of mistake is so high , you can spent 2-3h on just wrong assumption, you lost your time and all the burned tokens.
