In this role, you will lead the architecture and construction of core infrastructure components, taking full ownership of technical decision-making and custom development from foundational storage to high-availability service layers. You will perform deep-dives into systems internals and performance tuning—focusing on state management, checkpointing, and exactly-once semantics—to ensure millisecond-level accuracy and reliability across 30+ global regions. A significant portion of your impact will involve developing the "Knowledge Platform" to power AI-driven products through scalable vector indexing, agentic workflows, and real-time data streaming.
Beyond the initial build, you will own the full SDLC for high-performance distributed systems that process petabytes of data at a global scale. As a champion of engineering rigor, you will advocate for elite software practices and contribute to shared tooling, SDKs, and automation frameworks that enhance productivity across the entire organization. Finally, you will serve as a technical beacon and mentor for mid-level engineers, driving high-quality project delivery through meticulous design reviews and hands-on technical leadership.
This is a hybrid role based in San Francisco.
