At Weights & Biases, our mission is to build the best developer tools for AI developers. Weights & Biases is a series C company with $250 million in funding and a rapidly growing user base. Our platform is an essential piece of the daily work for machine learning engineers, from academic research institutions like FAIR and UC Berkeley to massive enterprise teams including iRobot, OpenAI, Toyota Research Institute, Samsung, NVIDIA, Salesforce, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Lyft, and more.
As a Senior Software Engineer at Weights & Biases, you will have the opportunity to design and build our generative AI platform, powering a new wave of LLM-based applications. You will work directly with users, leveraging cutting-edge techniques such as Agentic Workflows, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), and more.
This role involves working on an early-stage product and being a major contributor to its growth and adoption. If you thrive in a fast-paced startup environment, enjoy iterating closely with users, and want to be on the frontlines of the GenAI revolution, this is the perfect role for you!

Responsibilities

• Implement robust and ergonomic open-source client APIs.
• Design and implement integrations with popular LLM tools such as LlamaIndex, LangSmith, and Instructor.
• Scale and improve our backend performance to support low latency and high volume production use cases.
• Build polished and delightful features such as multi-modal evaluations, LLM playgrounds, and dataset editing/drill-down capabilities.
• Actively meet with and iterate based on customer feedback, understanding their workflows and addressing key bugs.

Requirements

• Deep knowledge of Python or TypeScript.
• Experience with open-source ML libraries; contributions to a GenAI/LLM framework are a bonus.
• Experience managing large-scale online production services or OLAP databases.
• A minimum of 4 years of software engineering experience.
• Ability to operate effectively amid ambiguity and adapt rapidly to a changing business environment.

Why join us?

• Top-tier machine learning teams rely on our tools for their daily work at companies including OpenAI, Toyota Research Institute, Lyft, Samsung, and Pandora.
