Roboflow is a venture-backed SaaS startup that empowers innovators all over the world to build, train, and deploy computer vision models. Roboflow believes that computer vision is a foundation technology that will transform nearly every industry. We currently have over 250,000 users, including half of the Fortune 100. Roboflow has enabled our customers to accelerate cancer research, conduct experiments in space, accelerate the world’s transition to green energy, and improve the retail experience (to name a few!) with world-altering technology. Investors like Y Combinator, David Sack’s Craft Ventures, Lachy Groom, the founders of OpenAI (Sam Altman and Greg Brockman), and many others back Roboflow. 

As with any rapidly scaling startup, we hope to build a team that is both versatile and adaptable. Each role has tremendous potential for growth. As such, we believe that coachability, enthusiasm, and an entrepreneurial mindset are more important than experience or qualifications. 

Our goal is to build a magnetic environment for exceptional talent. 

We’re looking for people that can own a large set of problems and are motivated by the question, “How can I improve this?” Over 80% of our current team is a former founder and they love working at Roboflow because they get to work autonomously and build solutions from the ground up (but you don’t have to be a former founder to thrive at Roboflow!). Roboflow is still early stage and each department runs a startup within itself that defines a problem, works with our customers, builds ideal solutions, and adapts quickly to changes.

The focus of this role is on improving, scaling, and maintaining the infrastructure that powers our core app, including: our cloud architecture, databases, file storage, search cluster, micro-services, and machine learning pipelines. You’ll be working alongside our existing infrastructure team along with doing cross-team work spanning product, operations and customer-facing projects and should have the ability to context switch across a wide range of infrastructure, security and systems engineering work in a fast-paced startup environment.

Spend the first week onboarding in person with your manager (you’ll come to our NY or SF Hub!)

Start building a trusting relationship with your peers, and learning the company structure.

You can work from one of our Hubs, work from home, work at a co-working spaces, etc. We want you to work where you work best!

Given that we are an remote company and can hire almost anywhere in the world, we don’t have a particular time-zone preference for this role. However, you may need to be available for non-recurring urgent meetings outside of working hours.
