Job description

Scale GP is Scale’s enterprise Generative AI platform-APIs and infrastructure for knowledge retrieval, inference, evaluation, and intelligent automation. We power mission-critical workflows for leading enterprises, helping teams turn complex data and models into reliable, production-ready AI systems.

We’re building a new AI Enablement team to create the next generation of agent-powered tools that ground AI in real operational workflows. Our goal: help internal teams demystify their own workflows, then deploy agentic systems that reason over data, take action, and deliver measurable outcomes. We don’t build in a vacuum. You’ll use our own platform to solve real business problems internally-then selectively commercialize that same stack for customers.

What we run on is what we sell.

This is a 01 team. We’re looking for a sharp, product-minded engineer who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and loves building systems from scratch alongside customers and cross-functional partners. You’ll work closely with product, forward-deployed engineers, data scientists, and applied AI teams to turn real-world problems into scalable production solutions.

If you like shipping fast, owning outcomes, and working across the stack-from polished frontends to distributed backends to LLM integrations-this role is for you. What You’ll Do

  • Own full-stack features and projects end-to-end - from design through production deployment - within a larger product area

  • Sample surfaces - Accounting Agents, Finance Copilots, GTM Agents, Agentic Experimentation Platforms

Develop reliable backend services in Typescript/Python, work with distributed systems, data pipelines, and AI/ML infrastructure

Integrate LLMs, vector databases, and agentic frameworks to power intelligent workflows

Ship quickly through tight experimentation loops while maintaining high quality and reliability

Requirements

  • 3+ years of full-time software engineering experience
  • Solid full-stack fundamentals with production ownership of features you’ve shipped
  • Familiarity with LLMs, embeddings, vector databases, or modern AI data products/tools
  • Exposure to distributed systems and cloud-based architectures

What We Value

  • Strong product intuition and customer empathy
  • Entrepreneurial mindset, building and implementing agentic workflows
  • Ownership mentality - you see problems through to outcomes
  • Comfort collaborating across engineering, product, data science, and applied AI
  • Excitement about building agentic systems that make AI genuinely useful in the real world

Additionally, this role may be eligible for additional benefits such as a commuter stipend. The base salary range for this full-time position in the location of San Francisco is: $180,000-$225,000 USD
