About the Team DoorDash’s GenAI Platform team sits within Machine Learning Platform and builds the shared infrastructure that helps DoorDash, Wolt, and Deliveroo teams safely bring GenAI-powered products, agents, automation, and personalization to production. Our mission is to increase the velocity of business impact from GenAI. A central pillar of that work is running frontier open-weight LLMs and VLMs (such as GLM, Qwen, Kimi, and DeepSeek) ourselves — real-time GPU serving, high-throughput batch inference, and fine-tuning on autoscaling GPUs — delivering large cost and latency wins (for example, a billion embeddings produced roughly 20× cheaper and visual models served roughly 72% cheaper). We also own core platform surfaces including the LLM Gateway, Agent Gateway, evals infrastructure, guardrails, and cost attribution. About the Role You will join a small, high-leverage team building production infrastructure for Generative AI at DoorDash, leading the design and architecture of our open-weights model platform spanning inference and fine-tuning: real-time GPU serving, high-throughput batch inference, and model fine-tuning. You’ll set technical direction across model serving and inference engines, fine-tuning and training pipelines, GPU autoscaling and utilization, batch pipelines, backend services, and observability, and mentor engineers as you go. This role is ideal for a senior engineer who enjoys owning ambiguous, high-impact systems and pushing the cost/performance frontier of GPU inference and fine-tuning in a fast-moving technical area where product needs, model capabilities, vendor ecosystems, and cost/performance tradeoffs are evolving quickly. You’re excited about this opportunity because you will… Lead the design of infrastructure that helps DoorDash teams move GenAI ideas from prototype to production, increasing the velocity of business impact from AI across the company. Own and evolve our open-weights serving stack — real-time GPU endpoints, high-thr

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive. The Safety and Customer Care (SCC) team at Lyft manages over 1.7 million monthly human and AI interactions and serves as Lyft's primary direct touchpoint with riders and drivers. We handle critical infrastructure that powers both human associates and AI agents to make riders and drivers feel safe and comfortable while riding or driving with Lyft, transforming every support interaction into a moment of genuine connection. Agentic AI is at the center of how we scale that mission. We fine-tune and align open-source models, build AI-powered support agents, and develop end-to-end AI agents for safety case management, systems that reason over complex, high-stakes cases and drive them to resolution. SCC brings together ML, data, backend, and product engineers alongside data scientists and operations partners to transform these systems. As a Machine Learning Engineer on the SCC team, you will fine-tune and align models and build AI Agents that power how riders and drivers get help. Your work spans the full loop: post-training open-source models for our domain, composing them into multi-step agents, and building the evaluation that proves they are safe to ship in a customer-facing, safety-critical setting. Post-train and adapt open-source LLMs for SCC use cases using SFT, LoRA, and preference-tuning methods (RLHF, RLAIF, RLVR). Design and build AI-powered support agents and end-to-end agents for safety case management using LangGraph or equivalent agentic frameworks. Own the evaluation data flywheel, offline and online, that defines what "good" looks like and build benchmarks for the team to hill-climb. Turn interaction feedback into training data and learning signals, closing the data flywheel that continuously improves the models. Responsibilities: Conduct literature review and build post-training fra

Role Summary Scale builds AI applications for organizations where reliability, security, and measurable results matter. Our core platform, SGP, gives teams the capabilities to build, deploy, evaluate, and operate those applications in customer environments. We're looking for a product leader to own the strategy and roadmap for SGP's core platform and lead the PM team responsible for it. You will work with customers, platform engineering, and forward deployed teams to build capabilities customers need, productize work developed in the field when it has broader value, and improve how teams build, deploy, and operate AI applications. This is a hands-on leadership role. You will connect work across teams into a coherent product, make difficult scope and investment decisions, and stay close enough to the details to know whether what we ship works for the people using it. What you'll do Own the platform strategy and roadmap. Prioritize across developer experience, capabilities customers need, and productizing work built in the field where it has broader value. Sequence investments against customer value, commitments, and dependencies. Define how the product should work. Work with users and engineers to write clear requirements and vibe code prototypes, user journeys, and measure success through customer outcomes, capability adoption, delivery time, and production performance, and follow through on gaps after launch. Align teams across the business. Work with platform engineering, forward deployed PMs, and business leaders to agree on shared capabilities, rollout priorities, and necessary differences across environments. Make clear what is available, where it works, and what remains to be delivered. Build and lead a strong PM team. Establish clear ownership across related product areas, hire and coach PMs, and raise the quality of product thinking and written requirements. Stay directly involved in the most consequential decisions. What we're looking for A track record of
