We are looking for a Principal Engineer who will sit at the technical center of our AI platform—owning architecture, standards, and production excellence across the stack. This is not a pure research role, nor a model R&D position. You will lead the productionization of GenAI systems—owning evaluation pipelines, tracing and observability, inference orchestration, safety guardrails, dataset/prompt workflows, and developer-facing tooling. You will translate ambiguous product problems into reliable, scalable platform capabilities that customers trust with production workloads. You will operate as a force multiplier—setting architectural standards, mentoring senior engineers, influencing roadmap trade-offs, and partnering directly with product and executive leadership to shape technical direction. Required Experience - 10+ years of software engineering experience with recent hands-on coding - Experience operating at Principal / Distinguished / Staff / Lead Engineer level (or equivalent while still coding) - Proven ownership of production GenAI systems (RAG, eval frameworks, inference services, safety/guardrails, tracing/observability) - Deep expertise in Python - Strong practical capability in TypeScript, React, and Node.js - Strong cloud and platform experience (AWS/GCP/Azure, Kubernetes, CI/CD, distributed systems) - Experience driving multi-team architecture decisions - Ability to communicate trade-offs clearly to senior leadership Strong Plus - RAG evaluation frameworks (ragas, custom eval harnesses) - Vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, Qdrant) - OpenTelemetry instrumentation - Performance optimization of inference systems - Exposure to blockchain/tamper-evidence concepts - Own technical vision and architecture across GenAI platform capabilities - Lead end-to-end productionization of AI features (not prototypes) - Define and operate readiness criteria for AI releases (eval gates, rollout strategy, rollback mechanisms, SLOs) - Design and own core platform capabilities: - Evaluation pipelines - Tracing and observability systems - Prompt/version/dataset workflows - Guardrails and safety systems - Inference orchestration layers - Establish and track metrics for latency (p95/p99), cost efficiency, quality, and safety - Write clear architectural proposals that influence multi-team decisions - Partner with Product to translate ambiguous user pain into staged technical delivery - Raise the engineering bar through reviews, documentation, mentoring, and principled system design - Contribute hands-on across Python services, Node/TypeScript APIs, and React UI when necessary - Join at the ground floor of a GenAI infrastructure company defining a new category - Shape the technical foundation before the architecture calcifies - Work directly with senior product and engineering leadership - Build production systems that AI teams depend on daily - Fully remote - ESOP equity - Flexible hours - Generous PTO - Global offsites - Education support - Clear advancement path
