> Staff-level engineer building AI data platform infrastructure, eval systems, and agent-first tooling for frontier labs. Requires 4+ years shipping production systems, full-stack experience, and deep TypeScript/Python proficiency.
## Job Description
## What you may work on
- Eval systems that run millions of agent trajectories to measure model and product quality.
- Fine-tuning pipelines that turn evaluation signals into measurable agent improvements.
- Agent-first product surfaces: UX and infrastructure for workflows where the user is a model or an agent operator.
- The systems behind hundreds of thousands of AI interviews used to source and match freelance workers to projects.
- Infrastructure that scales to the throughput frontier labs actually need.
- Integration of the latest models and capabilities into production within days of release.

## What we're looking for
- 4+ year track record of shipping systems customers and other engineers rely on
- You build full stack prototypes fast and they hold up. The v1 you ship becomes the foundation the rest of the team builds on.
- Strong system and API design judgement
- Hard architecture and product calls land with you. You make them, defend them under pressure, and update fast when someone else is right.
- You ship production code with coding agents daily. You know where they break and what it takes to make them reliable to further accelerate the team's velocity.
- You set direction by being the example. Other engineers reach for your designs and your code as the reference.
- You move fast in ambiguous, startup-pace environments with influence over authority.
- You have worked in all parts of the stack
- Deep proficiency in TypeScript and/or Python.

## Nice to have
- Production experience building LLM- or agent-driven products.
- Designing evaluations for LLMs and agents, or producing high-quality data for ML systems.
- Background in production distributed systems, ML infrastructure, or data systems at scale.

## Our Technology Stack
- Frontend: React.js with Redux, TypeScript
- Backend: Node.js, TypeScript, Python, some Java & Kotlin
- APIs: GraphQL
- Cloud & Infrastructure: Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Kubernetes
- Databases: MySQL, Spanner, PostgreSQL
- Queueing / Streaming: Kafka, PubSub
