Key skills for this role
At Fireworks, we’re building the future of generative AI infrastructure. Our platform delivers the highest-quality models with the fastest and most scalable inference in the industry. We’ve been independently benchmarked as the leader in LLM inference speed and are driving cutting-edge innovation through projects like our own function calling and multimodal models. Fireworks is a Series C company valued at $4 billion and backed by top investors including Benchmark, Sequoia, Lightspeed, Index, and Evantic. We’re an ambitious, collaborative team of builders, founded by veterans of Meta PyTorch and Google Vertex AI.
In the last few months alone we launched Fireworks Training, partnered with Microsoft Azure Foundry, and published research straight from our production systems. A few examples of what that looks like in practice:
Frontier RL is cheaper than the mega-cluster narrative suggests: we ran cross-region rollouts using 98% sparse weight deltas and published what we learned. ( blog )
Open source agents with frontier advisors: matching frontier performance through training and harness engineering. ( blog )
The fine-tuning bottleneck is not the algorithm: integration friction and iteration speed are what actually stall teams; we documented the patterns across dozens of customer engagements. ( blog)
We are looking for a Full Stack Software Engineering to architect, build, and scale our developer-focused web application (fireworks.ai) and shape our end-to-end technical architecture. This role blends hands-on engineering with technical leadership, offering the opportunity to mentor other engineers, collaborate cross-functionally, and drive innovation in a fast-paced, AI-focused environment.
You'll play a key role in delivering scalable, elegant, and highly performant solutions that directly impact our hundreds of thousands of developers and product vision. You will be directly shaping and shipping the most optimal developer journey—spanning intuitive front-end interfaces, robust APIs, and efficient backend orchestration—combined with our large offering of open-source generative AI models, enabling our users to seamlessly build, experiment, and ship their AI workflows with our playground.
