About Slack AISlack AI's mission is to transform how people work by making Slack an AI-powered operating system. We're tackling significant challenges like unlocking collective knowledge and reducing noise, all while building a seamless, consumer-grade AI experience within users' existing workflows. Join us in shaping the future of work through AI.
About the TeamThe AI and ML Infrastructure team is part of Slack's Core Infrastructure organization and is responsible for the foundational systems that enable machine learning and AI across the company. The team designs, builds, and operates reliable, scalable, and high performance platforms that allow product and ML teams to develop, deploy, and operate AI driven capabilities with confidence.
The team owns shared infrastructure, services, and tooling that support the full ML lifecycle, including model training, deployment, inference, and monitoring. As Slack AI continues to grow, the team is evolving from traditional ML deployments toward large scale, highly distributed model systems. This work involves deep architectural decisions around scalable model deployment strategies, real time feature serving at very high throughput, GPU accelerated inference at message scale, and responsible training of models on sensitive data with strong privacy and safety requirements.
Core Focus Areas- ML Infrastructure - The ML Infrastructure focus area is responsible for the low level systems that power training and inference at scale. This includes architecting and maintaining distributed systems for model training, serving, and deployment using Kubernetes based platforms, GPU infrastructure, and open source ML stacks such as KubeRay and vLLM. The team delivers platform capabilities that improve the speed, reliability, and quality of ML development, including training pipelines, feature generation systems, and compute orchestration.
- AI Platform - The AI Platform focus area builds the tooling and platform layers that enable AI development across Slack. This includes creating developer facing tools, SDKs, and workflows that allow product teams to integrate AI into Slack features efficiently and safely. The platform supports LLM efficiency and model transition initiatives through integrations with managed services across multiple cloud providers acting as the connective layer between core infrastructure and product engineering teams.
