Senior Software Engineer

We’re looking for a senior software engineer interested in working on greatly improving the cloud development experience for AI/ML engineers today. There’s a large gap between researchers working in notebooks, and engineers using Docker, Kubernetes, and other scalable tools to ship ML code to production environments. We’re looking to fill that gap in between, and make it easier for users to work with their own cloud infrastructure.

Runhouse lets you easily iterate on and deploy Python code as shareable services on your own infrastructure. Within 10 lines of code and without conforming to a heavily opinionated DSL, you can turn your local code into a performant service running within your own cluster. Our customers are startups and enterprises alike who want to use their existing clusters (AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, and more) but with a modern, seamless development and deployment experience.
