Description

  • Build the core systems behind Runware’s serverless platform, including workload execution, routing, scheduling, isolation, and scaling.
  • Design a simple SDK-based experience that lets developers deploy models and run AI workloads without managing infrastructure.
  • Design and improve the control plane for serverless execution, including APIs, workers, lifecycle management, retries, and failure handling.
  • Work with infrastructure and ML teams to improve startup time, GPU utilization, model warm-up, caching, and placement.
  • Build observability tools that make serverless workloads easy to monitor, debug, and operate globally at scale.
  • Lead technical design for a new product area and help define engineering standards.
  • Mentor other engineers and provide technical leadership across the team.
  • Collaborate closely with senior leadership to bring the new product line to market.

Requirements

  • Strong experience as a Staff Engineer, Senior Software Engineer, Backend Engineer, Platform Engineer, or similar.
  • Experience building backend services, distributed systems, developer platforms, or workload orchestration systems.
  • Strong understanding of async processing, queues, scheduling, retries, back pressure, and failure handling.
  • Comfort working across APIs, control planes, workers, databases, and observability systems.
  • Strong engineering fundamentals in one or more backend languages such as Python, Go, or similar.
  • Good judgment around trade-offs between reliability, latency, scale, cost, and developer experience.
  • Clear communication, strong ownership, and the ability to lead technical direction in a fast-moving environment.
  • Experience building serverless platforms, job execution systems, container platforms, or compute orchestration systems is a nice to have.
  • Experience with GPU-backed workloads, AI/ML inference, model serving, batch processing, or high-performance compute is a nice to have.
  • Familiarity with technologies such as vLLM, TensorRT, Triton, Kubernetes, Nomad, or Knative is a nice to have.
  • Experience improving workload performance through batching, autoscaling, model warm-up, caching, request routing, or queue management is a nice to have.
  • Experience with multi-tenant isolation, sandboxing, quotas, rate limits, resource accounting, or usage-based billing is a nice to have.

Benefits

  • Remote-first setup with the ability to work from home anywhere the company can employ you.
  • Flexible hours with core collaboration blocks and control over your schedule outside them.
  • Generous paid time off, including vacation, sick days, and public holidays.
  • Meaningful stock options that let you share in the upside you help create.
  • Paid family leave for maternity, paternity, and caregiver time.
  • Company retreats twice a year in inspiring locations.
  • Built-in downtime after major release pushes to rest and recharge.
