Job description
from Anyscale careersAbout Anyscale:
At Anyscale, we're on a mission to democratize distributed computing and make it accessible to software developers of all skill levels. We’re commercializing Ray, a popular open-source project that's creating an ecosystem of libraries for scalable machine learning. Companies like OpenAI, Uber, Spotify, Instacart, Cruise, and many more, have Ray in their tech stacks to accelerate the progress of AI applications out into the real world.
With Anyscale, we’re building the best place to run Ray, so that any developer or data scientist can scale an ML application from their laptop to the cluster without needing to be a distributed systems expert.
Proud to be backed by Andreessen Horowitz, NEA, and Addition with $250+ million raised to date.
About the Role
Anyscale is seeking a Staff Software Engineer to lead the technical vision for our Infrastructure team. As a Staff Engineer, you will be responsible for the architectural evolution of our control plane and data plane, ensuring that our "infinite laptop" vision scales to meet the most demanding distributed AI workloads in the world. You will act as a force multiplier, setting the standards for Kubernetes-based cloud-native infrastructure while mentoring engineers and driving cross-functional alignment across the Ray open-source community and our proprietary product teams.
