About the RoleWe're looking for a
Full-Stack Engineer with strong
backend and DevOps background to help build and evolve internal tools that power AI research and evaluation. This role sits at the intersection of backend architecture, infrastructure automation, and developer experience - with the larger goal of improving how we measure and ensure the quality and safety of AI systems.You'll collaborate closely with
machine-learning researchers, data scientists, PMs, and engineers, translating complex research workflows into robust, scalable systems. While your primary focus will be on backend services, data models, and infrastructure, you'll also occasionally contribute to
frontend development to help shape cohesive, user-friendly interfaces that bring research workflows to life.
What You'll Work On- Designing and implementing backend APIs and data models using modern web frameworks (e.g. Laravel, Ruby on Rails, Node.js / Adonis, or Python / FastAPI)
- Managing MongoDB schemas and performing safe data migrations for live research datasets
- Building and maintaining Dockerized applications and CI/CD pipelines in Kubernetes / Argo CD environments
- Maintaining and versioning APIs and SDKs following Semantic Versioning (SemVer), and communicating updates clearly to internal users
- Working directly with internal customers to understand workflows, gather requirements, and translate them into actionable engineering tasks
- Automating developer processes and improving tooling and developer experience across the platform
- Occasionally contributing to frontend development (React or similar frameworks) to integrate new backend features or streamline researcher-facing workflows
What You Bring- Strong backend development experience with at least one modern web framework (Laravel, Rails, Node.js / Adonis, or Python / FastAPI)
- Proficiency with Docker and containerized application development
- Experience with MongoDB and schema evolution in production environments
- Familiarity with Kubernetes, Argo CD, or similar DevOps platforms
- Understanding of CI/CD, API versioning, and SDK publishing workflows
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills - comfortable engaging with internal users, clarifying requirements, and turning feedback into practical solutions
- A customer-first mindset and enthusiasm for improving internal tooling and developer experience
- A strong work ethic, eagerness to learn new systems and technologies, and the ability to connect disparate tools and architectures into cohesive solutions
- An open, reflective approach - you learn from past experiences without being biased toward past solutions
- Bonus: experience or curiosity in machine-learning evaluation, data visualization, Amazon S3, or authentication and security best practices
Why This Role MattersYou'll help bridge the gap between
research and engineering, enabling teams to evaluate and iterate on AI models more efficiently and responsibly. Your work will directly contribute to improving the
quality, reliability, and safety of AI systems - not by training models, but by building the infrastructure that helps everyone understand them better.This is an opportunity to shape the tools that shape research itself - within a small, collaborative team that values thoughtful design, experimentation, and real-world impact.
