Beam is revolutionizing AI infrastructure by providing a platform that enables developers to build and run AI and LLM applications on serverless GPUs without managing infrastructure. As a Software Engineer, you'll join a small but impactful team working on cutting-edge platform engineering challenges. The role involves developing low-level systems, managing GPU memory sharing, and creating cloud development environments that feel native.
The backend stack primarily uses Go with some Python components, and the team emphasizes maintaining focus and achieving flow states. While the position offers significant career growth and impact opportunities as part of a pre-Series A startup, it's important to note that work-life balance might be challenging at this stage.
The ideal candidate will bring 3-5 years of experience with distributed systems, strong knowledge of Kubernetes, and expertise in statically typed languages like Go or Rust. You'll work with modern technologies including gRPC, Helm/Kustomize, and Terraform, contributing to a platform that's already serving hundreds of teams in production.
Benefits include competitive compensation with meaningful equity, comprehensive health coverage, and various stipends for personal development. You'll be joining at a crucial growth stage, working directly with founders, and helping shape the future of AI infrastructure. The position offers both remote work flexibility and the opportunity to participate in quarterly hackathons at the office.
