Weaviate is a global Remote-First startup, with teams hailing from many different parts of the world, where it is not totally uncommon for someone to work remotely from fun places - like a camping site or on a beach in Florida.

Our product is a Vector Search engine & database, which uses machine learning to organize and search data in a completely new way.

At Weaviate we believe that the next wave of software infrastructure is AI-first and that a strong open-source community is a basis for creating high-quality software.

Weaviate is a remote-first company. Our entire team works remotely across the globe because we believe in the freedom and flexibility to work from anywhere and at any time. Our people experience this as a massive benefit! Our people are therefore comfortable working independently, proactive, they take ownership, and our people communicate effectively.

Hi there - I'm Erika, a Developer Advocate at SeMI Technologies! I'm originally from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, but am now based out of Boston, Massachusetts. I have a dual master's degree in economics and data science from Florida Atlantic University. I was part of the National Science Foundation (NSF) Research Traineeship, in which I published a paper exploring unstructured data for house prices. As a Developer Advocate at SeMI, I will create content and engage with the Weaviate community through online forums and in-person events.

Outside of work - I love going for walks, working out, and eating at new restaurants :)

Hi there, my name is Jessie and I'm the head of People & Culture at SeMI Technologies.

I believe people are the foundation of a company, that's why I see it as my mission to make sure that our colleagues feel part of SeMI, that they have fun and are happy working with us.

I'm passionate about company culture and about creating & sustaining a great employee experience.

In my free time I love to cook & eat (good combination :)), I like to practice Barre, discover new places (in the world), drink coffee and enjoy reading books.

I am a Co-Founder and currently the CTO at SeMI Technologies - the company behind the open-source vector search engine Weaviate. I have a deep-tech background with a focus on distributed systems, and cloud technology. My current research interests are auto-scaling databases and new vector-index types, making vector search more resource-efficient at scale.

I believe that the most important fact for team productivity is long-term team health. This includes social safety, happiness, time and space for managing tech debt, room for creativity and passion, enabling each other, and having an atmosphere to learn every day - from one another, and independently.
