Chalk builds infrastructure for AI agents and models to access real-time feature data—combining a query planning engine, streaming ingest (Kafka, Spark), and transformation layer (dbt) deployed in customer cloud environments. The hiring mix (engineering-heavy at 15 of 30 open roles, with accelerating velocity across mid and senior tiers) reflects active infrastructure work: query optimization, productionization of the first generation, and expansion into healthcare and financial-services use cases.
Chalk provides a data platform purpose-built for AI agents and large language models to retrieve contextual data at inference time. The product sits between feature stores and real-time analytics, handling low-latency feature computation for use cases like fraud prevention, identity verification, and medical diagnosis. Engineering teams deploy Chalk in their own cloud (AWS or GCP), integrating it with existing data pipelines (Kafka, Spark, dbt). The company is in active growth mode across product maturity (productionizing core v1), go-to-market (expanding verticals into healthcare and finance), and geographic hiring (seven countries including Peru, Israel, Japan, and Singapore).
Rust, Python, Go, TypeScript, and React for core infrastructure. Data layer: Kafka, Apache Spark, dbt, deployed on AWS or GCP. Sales and marketing: Salesforce, HubSpot, Outreach, Marketo.
Real-time feature pipelines for healthcare (cancer detection), finance (fraud prevention), and recommendations. Core platform work: query planning and execution engine optimization, productionizing first-generation infrastructure, and expanding use cases into new verticals.
Chalk's technology stack, projects, and hiring signals are inferred from public hiring and company data — career pages, public listings, and company web presence — then clustered and de-duplicated. Figures are estimates that refresh over time. Read our full methodology →
