About the Role

The open AI evaluation platform is redefining how the world's leading AI labs measure model performance. They are building an AI gateway that gives developers access to multiple model providers through a unified endpoint. You’ll help build the platform infrastructure that turns their research advantage into enterprise products. This is a founding role on the developer team, working directly with founders and early customers to define product direction.

Responsibilities

  • Build and scale backend platform services for the AI gateway, evolving an existing prototype into a reliable, independently scalable service.
  • Solve streaming problems, handling SSE/streaming responses across heterogeneous providers, including partial failure recovery, mid-stream fallback, and consistent response normalization.
  • Ship reliable platform infrastructure, including authentication, rate limiting, usage metering, and cost tracking.
  • Build deep observability by instrumenting the platform with distributed tracing, latency breakdowns, usage tracking, and real-time dashboards.
  • Build AI-centered platform capabilities by integrating with the client's evaluation platform and data, and collaborating with research and product teams.
  • Contribute to the backend of the company's Leaderboards and Evals products when needed, working across platform and product boundaries.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, focused on backend services, distributed systems, or developer-facing platforms.
  • Strong Golang experience is required, with experience building and operating meaningful backend systems in production.
  • Experience designing reliable APIs, service integrations, or gateway/proxy-style systems.
  • For Senior candidates: a track record of owning and delivering important backend functionality end to end.
  • For Staff candidates: extensive backend/platform experience, strong technical judgment, and the ability to provide hands-on technical leadership.
  • Comfortable working hands-on in a fast-moving environment where the product and infrastructure are still evolving.
  • Able to work from the San Francisco office three days per week.
