- In-depth knowledge of at least one cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure).
- Strong grasp of at least one higher-level language and its ecosystem (Go, Python, TypeScript, etc.).
- A willingness to dive into and debug issues at any layer of the tech stack, from the application layer to the network.
- A demonstrated ability to think critically under pressure.
- Excellent communication skills and an ability to explain deeply technical concepts simply.
Why join us?
- Top-tier machine learning teams rely on our tools for their daily work at companies including OpenAI, Toyota Research Institute, Lyft, Samsung, and Pandora.
- You'll never stop learning. This role gives you first-hand experience talking with leading researchers in the field, understanding their problems, and directly shaping the product direction.
- Our experienced founding team has successfully built and sold ML tools in the past at Figure Eight, and their deep knowledge of our industry, empathy for our users, and skillful management is driving W&B to success.
- Customers genuinely benefit from our tool. Here's a quote from Wojciech Zaremba, Cofounder and Robotics Lead, OpenAI: "W&B allows to scale up insights from a single researcher to the entire team, and from a single machine to hundreds of them."
