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 Lovable , 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 recently raised a $355M Series C at a $4.65B valuation, led by General Catalyst and Redpoint Ventures. We've crossed $300M+ ARR and grown fivefold since September. Our team includes creators of popular open-source projects (e.g., Seaborn , Luig i ), 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 earl

About the Team The Astral team builds high-performance developer tools to power the future of programming, at OpenAI and beyond, including Ruff, uv, and ty. The Astral toolchain sees hundreds of millions of installs per month and powers hundreds of millions of package downloads per day for the Python ecosystem. As a team, we are building on those foundations to continue solving impactful tooling problems as programming evolves. About the Role We are looking for an experienced software engineer to build next-generation programming language tooling. If you like writing high-performance Rust, it could be a good fit; if you like thinking about the future of programming, it could also be a good fit. Strong candidates tend to have deep experience with Rust, Python, open source, compilers, or developer tools — but few candidates are deep in all of these areas, and we've hired candidates without prior Rust or Python experience. In this role, you will: Design and implement features in Astral’s existing open source projects (Ruff, uv, ty, and python-build-standalone, and more). Support Astral’s open source projects as a maintainer, triaging user issues, reviewing pull requests, and participating in community discussions.

Become a part of our caring community Most AI engineering jobs are a thin wrapper around a model API. This role is different. We build the platform that transforms millions of clinical documents into trusted, actionable data. Our systems use large language models (LLMs) to read medical records, extract structured facts, answer complex questions with citations back to the source document, and route ambiguous cases to human experts for review. Our users make decisions that impact real healthcare outcomes, so “good enough” is not good enough. Building AI systems that are accurate, reliable, auditable, and scalable is at the core of this role. As a Senior AI Applied Engineer, you will design, build, deploy, and operate production AI systems used at scale within one of the largest health insurers in the United States. You will own solutions end-to-end, from user experience and APIs to model orchestration, evaluation frameworks, infrastructure, and production operations. Why Join Us Build production AI systems where LLMs are in the critical path, not just demos or proofs of concept. Work on extraction, retrieval, agentic workflows, and human-review systems that process real healthcare data at scale. Own projects end-to-end across frontend, backend, AI orchestration, infrastructure, deployment, and operations. Solve challenging problems around accuracy, explainability, traceability, and reliability in regulated environments. Ship quickly in a small, high-impact team that embraces AI-assisted development and rigorous quality standards. Build systems that continuously improve through expert feedback, evaluations, and human-in-the-loop workflows. Key Responsibilities Design, develop, and deploy full-stack AI-powered application

Become a part of our caring community You have shipped AI products before. You understand the difference between a demo and a production system. You have strong opinions about evaluation frameworks because you have experienced the consequences of operating without them. You are at your best when you own architecture decisions while continuing to build and deliver critical code yourself. We build the platform that transforms millions of clinical documents into trusted, actionable data. Our systems use large language models (LLMs) to read medical records, extract structured facts, answer complex questions with citations back to source documents, and route complex cases to human experts. The output of these systems supports healthcare decisions that impact real members. As a Lead AI Applied Engineer, you will provide technical leadership for AI-enabled products and platforms, define architectural direction, establish engineering standards, and personally design and build the most critical components of our systems. You will lead through both technical expertise and execution, helping the team deliver reliable, scalable, and auditable AI solutions in a highly regulated healthcare environment. Why Join Us Lead the architecture of production AI systems where LLMs are foundational to the product experience. Make key technical decisions regarding model selection, system boundaries, platform architecture, and build-versus-buy strategies. Own the highest-risk and highest-impact technical challenges involving reliability, explainability, and correctness.

Join us and help build the platform engineers turn to to ship AI products. THE ROLE Baseten's GTM org is in hyper growth. As it grows and matures, the needs of the GTM stack get more sophisticated with scale — and this team exists to stay ahead of those needs. Our GTM Engineering team plays a critical role in building and maintaining the connective tissue across Baseten’s GTM tools, processes, and user experience for the field. The GTM tooling landscape is changing fast, and the teams that win are the ones that adapt and iterate the fastest. This role exists to make sure Baseten is one of them. You'll design, build, and ship AI-powered workflows that scale our GTM functions as a competitive advantage. We want someone who can walk in, audit what we have, identify what we're missing, and start shipping fast. You know when to reach for Clay and when to build something custom in Claude Code. You think two to three steps ahead about how the thing you build today fits into the broader systems architecture tomorrow. And you bring a point of view — on our stack, on what we should be building, and on where AI can do something low-code tooling simply can't. RESPONSIBILITIES Ship AI-powered workflows for the field — build the agents and automations that give reps and managers real leverage, off-loading the manual and repetitive work.
