Job Level
About the role
- Design and build the dashboards, model deployment workflows, and real-time monitoring views that our customers use to deploy and manage AI workloads at scale.
- Architect and implement the backend services that power our platform — model serving endpoints, usage metering, billing integrations, authentication, and developer-facing APIs.
- Build the frontend and API layers on top of our GPU orchestration engine, giving users intuitive control over routing, caching, scaling, and cost optimization across our global network.
- Own the end-to-end developer experience including API documentation, SDK design, CLI tools, and onboarding flows that make Parasail the easiest inference platform to adopt.
- Implement streaming interfaces (SSE/WebSockets) for real-time inference responses, live cost tracking, and deployment status updates.
- Build internal and customer-facing analytics — usage dashboards, cost breakdowns, latency distributions, and performance benchmarking tools.
Requirements
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience with significant fullstack ownership (you’ve shipped features end-to-end, from UI to database).
- Track record of building and scaling web applications or developer platforms used by technical audiences.
- Experience working in fast-paced environments where you’ve had to make pragmatic trade-offs between speed and quality.
- Strong product instincts — you think about the user experience, not just the code.
- Excellent communication skills. You can explain technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders and write clear documentation.
- While deep AI experience is not required, a demonstrated ability to learn new technologies quickly and stay current with the rapidly evolving AI landscape is essential.
Benefits
- Competitive compensation.
- Meaningful equity in a high-growth company.
- Benefits designed for a distributed team.
