Drive architecture, implement performance-sensitive systems, establish testing methodologies, deliver end-to-end features, and provide technical leadership and cross-team collaboration across Datadog's security products.

Build and own end-to-end features across backend and frontend: design backend services and data models (Python/Django), implement RESTful APIs, create reusable frontend components (TypeScript/React), write tests, participate in code reviews, maintain production reliability and security, and collaborate with product and design.

Develop and maintain C# applications, design robust solutions with the team, write unit tests and occasional end-to-end test plans, conduct code reviews, and diagnose and resolve technical issues to ensure code quality and reliability.

Build and maintain hardened Ubuntu-based container images and the automated CI/CD pipelines to build, test, scan, sign, publish, and retire them. Integrate upstream open-source projects, ensure security and cloud-native compatibility, collaborate with cross-functional teams, document and share knowledge, mentor colleagues, and contribute to hiring. Work in a distributed agile environment with occasional travel.

Build and scale a blockchain data platform handling petabytes of on-chain data. Design and implement distributed systems, data ingestion/decoding pipelines, and performant SQL processing. Write production code (Kotlin, Go, Java, Rust), improve developer experience, automate operations (including AI-driven automation), and own platform components.

Develop and optimize algorithms for battery and renewable energy projects, analyze market data trends, and ensure algorithm performance.

Own and build the production Android client using Kotlin, integrating AI features (chat, vision, voice), optimizing performance and memory, designing AI UX patterns, implementing analytics/logging, and collaborating with backend and ML engineers to ensure stability, security, and scalability.

Build and maintain a production-grade iOS application using Swift and SwiftUI with AI-native interactions. Integrate AI features via backend APIs and on-device inference, design resilient AI UX patterns, optimize performance and battery, capture user signals for evaluation, and ensure App Store quality and production reliability while collaborating with backend and ML teams.

As a Backend Software Engineer, you'll design scalable backend systems, optimize database performance, and collaborate with front-end and DevOps teams.

Contribute to Juju's development, collaborate with teams on distributed systems, debug issues, and enhance cloud automation features.

Lead rapid end-to-end prototyping of LLM-powered agent systems: build working prototypes, design experiments measuring quality/latency/cost/user impact, validate with users, produce reference implementations, and hand off to product teams to inform roadmap decisions.

Software Engineers at QuantCo will design and develop scalable solutions, integrate models into client businesses, and improve products based on client feedback.

As an Ubuntu Core Software Engineer, you will design and implement features for the embedded Linux operating system, maintain boot mechanisms, debug system-level issues, and collaborate with a global team.

Design and implement backend trading services, own features end-to-end (schema, API, tests, UI integration), contribute to real-time infrastructure and client-facing APIs, and write integration tests against real dependencies.

Full-stack Developers at QuantCo build user interfaces for machine learning solutions, collaborating with data scientists and engineers to deliver actionable products.

Build and maintain integrations for North's agentic platform, own the end-to-end integration pipeline, create evals and tests to ensure reliability, tune tool descriptions, and help other engineers add and maintain integrations while using AI responsibly to improve performance and quality.

Build and own end-to-end backend systems for forecasting and agentic LLM research: design, deploy, monitor, debug, and harden features and pipelines (benchmarks, agents, production services). Prototype quickly, work with LLM APIs and coding agents, and collaborate with researchers to improve evaluation and forecasting tools.

Build and ship full‑stack features for North, an enterprise AI workspace. Develop secure autonomous agents, execution engines, integrations, observability and evaluation systems. Collaborate with researchers to productionize models and deliver performant, low‑resource deployment code while adhering to strict security and privacy constraints.

The Software Engineer will develop backend systems using Rust, manage multimodal data, and improve data infrastructure with a focus on performance and design ownership.

The role involves optimizing hardware support within a software stack for AI model deployment, collaborating with teams and hardware vendors to enhance performance and portability across platforms.

Lead architecture, implementation, and operation of a cloud-native 5G Standalone core. Design and run core network functions, roaming signaling, and service-based interfaces. Build for high availability on AWS/Kubernetes, mentor teams, and troubleshoot production telecommunications systems.

Canonical seeks open-source enthusiasts to optimize Ubuntu for new silicon technologies, collaborating with teams and customers to enhance software quality and performance across various platforms.

Design and develop services for automating work with a large server fleet while engaging in DevOps processes.

Design and develop services for monitoring servers, improve metrics pipelines, automate maintenance workflows, and investigate incidents to ensure infrastructure reliability.

Responsible for building scalable distributed systems, mentoring teammates, innovating on technical solutions, and improving team processes. Requires expertise in backend languages, especially Golang and Typescript.
