Software Engineer (Agentic AI Systems)

• We’re hiring a product-focused Software Engineer, AI Systems to build Rescale’s Data Intelligence and Agentic AI platforms within our infrastructure organization
• The work spans production agents, retrieval, evals, ingestion pipelines, and the data services connecting customer environments, cloud storage, and compute clusters
• Projects often start as broad goals. You’ll partner with Product to identify the customer problem, sharpen the spec, and decide what to ship first. You’ll own the technical design and delivery of a meaningful part of the platform
• You’ll use Rescale’s product yourself, find friction in the full workflow, and keep improving what you launch
• Build and operate LLM-backed APIs, agents, retrieval systems, and integrations with internal and external systems
• Develop evals for agent and RAG workflows, then use the results to improve quality and reliability
• Build ingestion pipelines and high-throughput file and data paths between customer environments, cloud object storage, and compute clusters, balancing reliability, performance, and cost
• Work with Product and Design to turn broad goals into clear problems, practical specs, and small releases
• Spot worthwhile improvements, bring the right people into the decision, ship frequently, and follow through on the result
• Work across backend services (Python, Java, Go), cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP, containers/Kubernetes), and occasional UI changes (React and TypeScript) to complete the customer experience
