About The Position

The company is building the world's first AI-native audio data research platform, enabling leading AI labs and enterprise organizations to create high-quality training datasets that power next-generation speech and audio AI systems. Its platform combines large-scale data infrastructure, machine learning, LLMs, and advanced audio processing to help frontier AI companies build more accurate and reliable speech models. Already trusted by many of the world's leading AI labs and FAANG companies, the platform processes massive volumes of audio data while continuously improving data quality and model performance. Backed by leading venture investors including NVIDIA and Meritech, and founded by former Scale AI leaders, the company has rapidly scaled from a small founding team to one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure startups while maintaining an exceptionally high engineering bar. As a Senior Fullstack Engineer, you'll build and scale customer-facing products, backend systems, and AI-powered workflows while working closely with ML researchers, customers, and engineering leadership to solve complex problems around audio data at massive scale. This is a rare opportunity to join one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure companies where you'll directly influence product direction, engineering culture, and the future of AI data infrastructure.
