Requirements
- ABOUT US: AI needs a new infrastructure layer.
- 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.
- 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.
- experience and interest in designing, building, and maintaining the novel, high-performance systems that make up our serverless platform.
- experience writing high-quality production code -
- Experience building high-performance distributed systems at a large scale (the more battle scars, the better) - Strong cloud skills - Strong knowledge of low-level operating system foundations (Linux kernel, file systems, containers, etc.) -
- Experience with performance engineering (tell us a story of when you shaved off a few milliseconds!) - Ability to work in-person in our Stockholm office. - Prior
- experience with Rust is nice to have, but not required. - Ability to participate in on-call rotation and respond to production incidents.
