Full job description
Turnstone is a model-agnostic Grok Bot. Connect your AI subscriptions and API keys you already pay for. When one subscription runs out, your agent switches to another that has capacity, and keeps its full conversation and context. We're a 5-person team in SF (YC W26). Aryan and Jai met on day one at UC Berkeley and finished EECS/CS in 2.5 years. Aryan was a military officer in the Singapore Armed Forces. Jai published research at Stanford at 16 and worked as a SWE at 5 startups. We recently hired an ex-YC founder and would love one more onboard.
