As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will play a key role in building the next generation AI cloud platform - a highly available, global, blazing-fast cloud infrastructure that virtualizes cutting-edge ML hardware (GB200s/GB300s, BlueField DPUs) and enables state-of-the-art ML practitioners with self-serve AI cloud services, such as on-demand + managed Kubernetes and Slurm clusters. This platform serves both our internal StaaS products (inference, fine-tuning) and our external cloud customers, spanning dozens of data centers across the world. Some of what you'll work on: * Work on a distributed GPU scheduling system for the on-demand clusters product, Instant Clusters. * Build out a global management plane for managing our data center compute, networking, and storage. * Design and build new customer-facing cloud platform services, delivering killer enterprise AI cloud features. Responsibilities * Identify, design, and develop foundational backend services that power Together's cloud platform * Analyze and improve the robustness and scalability of existing distributed systems, APIs, databases, and infrastructure * Partner with product teams to understand functional requirements and deliver solutions that meet business needs * Write clear, well-tested, and maintainable software and IaC for both new and existing systems * Conduct design and code reviews, create developer documentation, and develop testing strategies for robustness and fault tolerance * Participate in an on-call rotation to address critical incidents when necessary ## Related Videos - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) - [From Messy Queries to Scalable Systems - How Data Engineering actually works](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100203-from-messy-queries-to-scalable-systems-how-data-engineering-actually-works) - [Go with the Flow: Stop the Leaks Before Your Memory's a Waterfall!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100073-go-with-the-flow-stop-the-leaks-before-your-memory-s-a-waterfall) - [Running Secure Life Science Research at Scale using Hybrid GPU HPC and Kubernetes 🧬](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100355-running-secure-life-science-research-at-scale-using-hybrid-gpu-hpc-and-kubernetes) - [Inside Bitpanda's Tech Stack: Scaling a European Fintech Leader - Markus Dorner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1979-inside-bitpanda-s-tech-stack-scaling-a-european-fintech-leader-markus-dorner) - [AI Model Management Life Circles: ML Ops For Generative AI Models From Research to Deployment](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1152-ai-model-management-life-circles-ml-ops-for-generative-ai-models-from-research-to-deployment) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [7 Cloud Computing Trends Coming in 2025 for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/412-7-cloud-computing-trends-coming-in-2025-for-developers) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [How we Build The Software of Tomorrow](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/120-how-we-build-the-software-of-tomorrow)
