Hedra expanding infrastructure hires
Hedra (San Francisco) is hiring Senior/Staff Infrastructure Engineers and several other roles after a $45M raise, according to social posts (x.com). Those openings often create immediate POC windows for DGX evaluations or pilot H100 clusters.
Hedra closed a $32M Series A in May 2025, a round led by Andreessen Horowitz’s Infrastructure fund. (techcrunch.com) The financing pushed Hedra’s total capital raised to roughly $44M and was reported in coverage that pegged the company’s valuation near $200M. (unite.ai) Hedra’s public careers page currently lists seven open roles across San Francisco and New York, including a Senior/Staff Infrastructure Engineer and several senior backend and full‑stack positions. (jobs.ashbyhq.com) The Senior/Staff Infrastructure Engineer job description calls for ownership of production reliability for Python web services and explicitly lists Kubernetes, AWS, and Postgres on RDS as core stack requirements. (jobs.ashbyhq.com) Hedra markets Character‑3 as an “omnimodal” foundation model that delivers full‑body animation, precise lip‑sync and directable performance for character‑driven video, capabilities the company showcased when launching Hedra Studio. (jonpeddie.com) Hedra’s product site states the platform is “trusted by 20% of the Fortune 500,” and company messaging around the Series A framed the raise as a move to scale Character‑3 for enterprise and marketing customers.
