Why This Role Stands Out
This role offers a unique opportunity to architect and build the core platform infrastructure for cutting-edge AI and simulation technologies, with hybrid flexibility and significant growth potential. You'll thrive here if you have a strong background in Python backend development and distributed systems, and are eager to contribute to a company at the forefront of innovation. Apply today to shape the future of enterprise AI solutions!
Quick Overview
Job Description
Role
We are seeking a Principal/Senior Software Engineer to lead the development of our high-performance backend systems, data pipelines, and compute orchestration layers. You will build the core platform infrastructure that connects physics-based simulation engines and AI agent workflows with global enterprise clients.
Key Responsibilities
System Architecture: Design, build, and maintain high-concurrency backend microservices in Python that power complex physical simulations and active learning loops.
Data Pipelines & Integration: Build scalable ingestion and processing pipelines (RAG, Delta Lake) to unify fragmented enterprise data and physical schemas into a high-performance semantic layer.
Agentic Compute Orchestration: Partner with AI/ML research teams to integrate agentic workflows, sandboxed execution systems, and model-serving infrastructure into secure, enterprise-grade cloud environments.
Operational Excellence: Harden core system capabilities around multi-tenancy, security, auditability, CI/CD automation, and low-latency API performance.
Qualifications
Experience: 6+ years of production software engineering experience building scalable backend microservices, high-throughput distributed systems, and API architectures.
Core Tech Stack: Advanced proficiency in Python, alongside modern web frameworks (FastAPI, gRPC) and relational/NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, Redis).
Infrastructure & Cloud: Strong experience with containerization, orchestration, and IaC tools including Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform.
Data & Systems: Hands-on experience with asynchronous task processing (Celery, RabbitMQ), large-scale data pipelines, and high-performance system design.
Education: B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or a related quantitative field.
Preferred / Bonus Qualifications
Experience or background in CAD engines, CAE/CFD software, computational physics, or digital twin simulation platforms.
Exposure to physics-informed machine learning models, active learning loops, or autonomous LLM multi-agent orchestration.
Knowledge of C/C++ low-level optimization, CUDA, or parallel compute systems.
This role offers competitve pay, hybrid work options, and comprehensive health benefits.
