Software Engineer, Product at Beam

Cloud computing is broken.

AI has introduced a new generation of workloads, like GPU inference, sandboxes, and agents. These aren't ordinary applications that can be run as Lambdas, or Dockerized apps on VMs: they're massive, stateless containers that need to spin up in <1s, often across multiple clouds and regions.

Today, engineers are hacking together infra that breaks under real-world loads. That's where we come in.

Our mission is to build the world's best compute platform for AI. Our first product is a serverless inference platform, used by companies like Coca Cola, Geospy and hundreds more. We've built our own container runtime, called beta9, which is designed for launching GPU-backed containers in under 1s.

We're a small, highly-technical team, with backgrounds in distributed systems and robotics. We've raised $7M from YC, Tiger, Guy Podjarny (Founder of Snyk), and Jason Warner (former CTO of Github).

We're searching for intensely curious, passionate, and hard-working engineers to join our mission in rebuilding the cloud for the age of AI.

Beam is an ultrafast AI inference platform. We built a serverless runtime that launches GPU-backed containers in less than 1 second and quickly scales out to thousands of GPUs. Developers use our platform to serve apps to millions of users around the globe. We're backed by Y Combinator, Tiger Global, and prominent developer-tool founders, including the founder of Snyk and former CTO of GitHub.

We’re looking to hire a Product Engineer to join the team. You’ll be responsible for building full-stack features, encompassing our Python SDK, React/Typescript app, and core backend APIs. You’ll own new features end-to-end, collaborate closely with customers, and ship high-impact work daily. Your work will directly impact millions of users around the globe.

• Full-stack experience with Python and React/Typescript (Golang is a nice-to-have)
• You’ve started a project from scratch, built an impressive side project, or been a founder
• Strong written and verbal communication skills. You’ll interact directly with customers, in addition to building new features.
• You are attentive to little details and value craftsmanship in your work
• Uniquely challenging engineering problems
• Competitive salary and meaningful equity
• Join a fast-growing pre-series A company at the ground floor
• Health, dental, and vision benefits with 90% coverage for you and 50% for dependents
• Opportunities to participate in events across the cloud native community
• Fitness stipend, learning budget, and much, much more Our infra code is mostly Go, our backend APIs are Python, and our dashboard is React/Typescript. We work very closely with customers – they’re all in a communal Slack channel with us, so it’s important that you’re interested in interacting with them (luckily, our customers are all developers).
