We're looking for a Staff Software Engineer to lead the design and evolution of the infrastructure, platforms, and services that enable machine learning models to run in production. This is a highly technical, hands-on role where you'll work closely with ML Scientists, Data Engineers, and Product teams to deliver robust ML-powered solutions while helping shape the future of our machine learning platform.

  • Experience with vector databases, feature stores, caching technologies (Valkey/Redis), and infrastructure-as-code solutions such as CDK, CloudFormation, or Terraform.
  • Knowledge of GPU infrastructure management, workload scheduling, performance tuning, and cloud cost optimization strategies.
  • Experience serving as a technical lead or mentor for distributed engineering teams and leveraging AI-assisted development tools to accelerate software delivery.

Your experience should include...

  • 7+ years of software engineering experience building and operating large-scale, production-grade distributed systems and microservices.

  • Experience with containerization and orchestration technologies including Docker, Kubernetes, ECS, or similar platforms supporting high-availability production workloads.
  • Proven ability to lead complex technical initiatives, influence architecture, collaborate across diverse stakeholders, and mentor engineers in a fast-paced environment.
