Job Overview by Ladders

Qualifications

  • Strong generalist software engineering skills across backend systems, APIs, cloud infrastructure (GCP, AWS, or Azure), and modern frontend frameworks.
  • Experience deploying and operating ML systems in production, preferably in diverse or customer-controlled environments.
  • Familiarity with containerization, orchestration, and infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g. Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform).
  • Ability to engage directly with customers, scoping ambiguous problems and building demos under time pressure.
  • Background in scalable model serving and deployment architectures, along with associated systems.
  • Demonstrated ownership of deliverables from requirements gathering to autonomous execution.

Responsibilities

  • Build and operate the production systems that deliver model predictions to customers around hard real-time deadlines, ensuring reliability from cost efficiency to incident response.
  • Design and construct the product surface, including backend APIs, data delivery integration patterns, and frontend dashboards to make predictions actionable.
  • Oversee the packaging, security, observability, and upgrade processes for deploying products into customer environments, including cloud and on-premises settings.
  • Create engaging product demos and prototypes for prospective customers, iterating rapidly alongside go-to-market efforts.
  • Engage directly with customer environments when required, integrating their data and systems while shipping solutions on-site, translating insights into product requirements.
  • Design tooling and playbooks that enable solutions to be generalized across various customers.

Benefits

  • Flexible working hours to accommodate diverse schedules.
  • Opportunities for professional development and training in emerging technologies.
  • Dynamic work environment that encourages innovation and creativity.
  • Access to the latest tools and resources to excel in your role.
  • Collaborative culture with an emphasis on teamwork and shared success.
Full Job Description
Your mission is to own the path from trained model to customer value - the production systems that serve predictions, the surfaces customers touch, and the demos that turn frontier research into a product, making every deployment easier than the one before it.

Responsibilities
  • Build and operate the production systems that deliver model predictions to customers around hard real-time deadlines - owning reliability end to end, from cost efficiency to monitoring, alerting, and incident response
  • Design and build the full product surface: backend APIs and data delivery, integration patterns, and frontend dashboards and visualizations that make predictions actionable
  • Own the packaging, security, observability, and upgrade machinery to deploy our product into customer environments - cloud, VPC, on-prem, and restricted networks
  • Create product demos and prototypes with and for prospective customers, iterating rapidly alongside go-to-market
  • Work directly in customer environments when needed: integrate with their data and systems, ship solutions on-site, and translate what you learn into requirements for research and product
  • Design the tooling and playbooks that let solutions built for one customer generalize to the next


What we're looking for

We value a relentless approach to problem-solving, rapid execution, and the ability to quickly learn in unfamiliar domains.
  • Strong generalist software engineering skills across the stack: backend systems, APIs, cloud infrastructure (GCP, AWS, or Azure), and modern frontend frameworks
  • Experience deploying and operating ML systems in production, ideally across diverse or customer-controlled environments
  • Familiarity with containerization, orchestration, and infrastructure-as-code (e.g. Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform)
  • Comfort working directly with customers: scoping ambiguous problems, building demos under time pressure, and representing the company technically
  • Background in scalable model serving & deployment architectures and the systems around them
  • Owns deliverables end-to-end, from requirements through autonomous execution
