Credo AI is a venture-backed company on a mission to empower organizations to deliver Responsible AI at scale. Credo AI brings context-driven governance and risk assessment to ensure compliant, fair, and auditable development and use of AI. Our goal is to move RAI development from an “ethical” choice to an obvious one. We aim to do this both by making it easier for organizations to integrate RAI practices into their AI development and by collaborating with policymakers to set up appropriate ecosystem incentives. The ultimate goal is to reduce the risk of deploying AI systems, allowing companies to capture AI's benefits while mitigating the unintended consequences.

You're highly motivated to learn new technologies and frameworks, constantly seeking to improve your skills and tackle new challenges.
Designing and implementing backend systems that meet our high standards for scalability, efficiency, and reliability.
Communicating effectively with team members across the organization, from fellow engineers to product managers, to ensure clear understanding of project goals and progress.
Leading technical projects, making strategic decisions about architecture, tools, and processes.
Exploring new technologies and programming languages and integrating them into our development practices where appropriate.
Continuously learning and adapting to new technical challenges, staying ahead of the curve in backend development practices.
Your contribution will be vital in driving the success of our backend systems, ensuring they are robust, scalable, and aligned with our overall business goals.
