About Us: AI needs a new infrastructure layer. We're building it at Modal. Every era of computing brought new workloads that previous infrastructure couldn't support: mainframes, databases, and the cloud. Each time, the company that rebuilt the layer underneath defined the decade. AI is no different, except it touches everything instead of one slice, and the window to build the layer underneath it is open right now. Our customers include category-defining companies like Ramp , Cognition, DoorDash, and Suno. They rely on Modal for instant GPU access, sub-second container starts, and native storage, so it's simple to serve low-latency inference, fine-tune models, and access production-ready sandboxes at scale. We've passed $1B in annualized run rate, up 15x from a year ago. In October 2026 we raised a $750M Series D led by Accel at a $15.75B valuation. Our team includes creators of popular open-source projects (e.g., Seaborn , Luigi ), academic researchers, international olympiad medalists, and experienced engineering and product leaders with decades of experience. About Modal Design: Modal is building the future of serverless computing, and the brand that carries that story is still taking shape — You'll join Modal's newly formed Brand team inside our design org as one of its first senior hires, working directly with the Director of Brand Design and Head of Design to build a brand developers recognize instantly and remember. The Role: As a staff-level Brand Designer, you will have major influence over every brand surface: the marketing website, campaigns, events, editorial projects like the GPU Glossary and forthcoming publications, and out-of-home work as we scale into larger formats. You'll also be a beacon to external agencies, representing Modal's internal creative voice and making sure the work translates into a system we can actually build on. And as the studio grows, you'll help set its craft standard — guiding and mentoring earlier-career designers and shapin

Principal duties and responsibilities: Serve as the primary financial partner to the CEO on strategic initiatives, including market expansion, competitive positioning, and long-range planning Lead end-to-end M&A analysis: target screening, financial modeling, valuation (DCF, LBO, comparable company/transaction analysis), due diligence support, and post-close integration tracking Develop comprehensive market sizing frameworks (TAM/SAM/SOM) and investment theses for new product introductions and R&D allocation decisions Own pricing strategy analytics — building models that evaluate monetization options, price elasticity, packaging structures, and margin impact across the SaaS product portfolio Construct and maintain dynamic financial models that support go-to-market decisions, including customer lifetime value (LTV), customer acquisition cost (CAC), payback periods, and cohort analysis Translate strategic investments into quantified financial outcomes, including IRR, NPV, and scenario-weighted return analyses for board and PE sponsor consumption Play a key role in preparing annual budgets and monthly reforecasts across bookings, revenue, operating expense, and capital expenditure Demonstrate a clear understanding of financial results, inclu

Sr. Software Engineer The Team + The Role Pendo's engineering teams build the product experiences that help customers understand, improve, and act on product usage data. This team is focused on AI-powered features that turn raw usage signals into automatic, actionable suggestions, reducing the manual work customers need to do before they can get value from Pendo. As a Senior Software Engineer, you will help shape and ship intelligent product experiences from discovery through delivery. You will work full-stack with a lean toward frontend, using TypeScript, Vue.js, backend services, and AI coding tools to build high-quality features on a small, fast-moving team. This role also owns product judgment: validating problems with customers, sizing opportunities, defining success metrics, and making pragmatic tradeoffs in ambiguous spaces. This role is based in our Sheffield office. What this looks like day-to-day AI-powered feature delivery: Build and ship features that use AI to turn product usage data into actionable suggestions for customers. You will work end to end across the experience, with attention to quality, usability, and the unique failure modes of AI-backed products. Full-stack engineering: Own delivery across the frontend and backend, with a strong lean toward TypeScript, Vue.js, DOM-level work, component architecture, and in-browser data capture. You will reason about backend services and APIs while building polished, reliable customer-facing experiences. Product discovery: Help validate problems, shape scope, and test direction before and while building. You will join customer calls, test prototypes, and use real feedback to make sure the team is solving meaningful problems. Success metrics and iteration: Define what success looks like for the features you build and use product usage data to guide iteration. You will not just close tickets; you will measure whether the work is creating the intended customer impact. AI-enabled development: Use AI coding too
