Our team is tasked with an extremely challenging mission - how can we get AI models to perform at production grade standards? Alongside the typical scale and latency requirements faced in production systems, we must also deal with the fact that the AI models themselves are unpredictable and random.
We are looking for a senior backend engineer who is truly cross functional - possesses strong engineering foundations for developing highly performant services. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of algorithms and Python fundamentals, as well as an understanding of the capabilities and limitations of LLMs. They will be able to quickly collaborate with their product counterparts to iterate over new, cutting edge features and capabilities and get them to the hands of our users. Collaborating closely with product teams, they will quickly ideate, develop and deliver innovative features and capabilities to our users.
If you have the skills and experience we are looking for, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity to join our team and make a significant impact on the future of AI.
- 5+ years of programming experience. Proficiency with Python is a huge plus
