## Description

Databricks Mosaic AI is hiring experienced machine learning platform engineers to build out our customer-facing generative AI platform for the ML development lifecycle including data generation, training, evaluation, serving, and agent-building.

You will thrive in this role if you have a strong sense of end-to-end ownership and enjoy translating user requirements into product interfaces and building the backend distributed systems to power those interfaces. In this role, you will have the opportunity to contribute to all areas of our stack spanning from user-facing features to low-level GPU orchestration.

You will:

 * Play a key role in the end-to-end design and implementation of our product which is a platform for powering use cases across training and serving of generative AI models
 * Work closely with both customers and internal ML researchers to identify key areas of development for our generative AI platform
 * Have strong end-to-end product ownership, translating product requirements into user interfaces and backend distributed system design and own end-to-end implementation
 * Design and build the core platform infrastructure that supports our customer-facing product features
 * Ensure the reliability, security, and scalability of the backend distributed systems that power all aspects of our product
