Software Engineer @ Weight & Biases

At Weights & Biases, our mission is to build the best developer tools for AI developers. Weights & Biases is a series C company with $250 million in funding and a rapidly growing user base. Our platform is an essential piece of the daily work for machine learning engineers, from academic research institutions like FAIR and UC Berkeley to massive enterprise teams including iRobot, OpenAI, Toyota Research Institute, Samsung, NVIDIA, Salesforce, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Lyft, and more.

The Product Software Engineer will work on the Workspaces team. Thousands of Machine Learning Engineers use workspaces daily to monitor and understand their ML training runs. To learn more about what you’ll be working on, see an example workspace or try our tutorial (the colab notebook lets you try it out with no ML experience necessary to run) - we are proud of how simple the app is to get started using.

The workspaces team focuses on how to enable better analysis of the timeseries data generated by MLEs, and in this full stack but primarily backend role you’ll be working on the data pipeline that feeds this data to the frontend. We use technologies like BigTable and Parquet to allow our users to query their data, enabling them to compare the performance of tens of thousands of metrics across hundreds of thousands of runs with millions of data points.

Responsibilities

Lead new product initiatives that help our customers (ML engineers) collaborate and share information
Collaborate with other developers on complex technical and performance challenges
Find ways to make the developers on the team more productive
Focus on our end users and listen to customer feedback in order to improve our product, either by working directly with customers, or with our team of customer support personnel, designers and PMs.

Requirements
