ABOUT US:

Modal provides the infrastructure foundation for AI teams. With instant GPU access, sub-second container startups, and native storage, Modal makes it simple to train models, run batch jobs, and serve low-latency inference. We have thousands of customers who rely on us for production AI workloads, including Lovable, Scale AI, Substack, and Suno.

We're a fast-growing team based out of NYC, SF, and Stockholm. We've hit 9-figure ARR and recently raised a Series B https://modal.com/blog/announcing-our-series-b at a $1.1B valuation. Our investors include Lux Capital https://www.luxcapital.com/, Redpoint Ventures https://www.redpoint.com/, Amplify Partners https://www.amplifypartners.com/, and Elad Gil https://eladgil.com/.

Working at Modal means joining one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure organizations at an early stage, with many opportunities to grow within the company. Our team includes creators of popular open-source projects (e.g. Seaborn https://github.com/mwaskom/seaborn, Luigi https://github.com/spotify/luigi), academic researchers, international olympiad medalists, and experienced engineering and product leaders with decades of experience.

THE ROLE:

We're looking for strong frontend engineers who love building complex and gorgeous products, and have a high degree of customer empathy, product sense and ownership.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Experience building and shipping modern web applications end-to-end. We care more about what you’ve built than how many years you’ve been building.

• Experience building applications with a modern front-end Javascript framework such as React. Prior experience in Svelte is nice to have, but not required.

• Ability to build pixel-perfect components and polished interactions.

• Strong product sense and experience driving product outcomes.

• Strong communication skills and a desire to partner with our customers in solving their problems.

• Ability to participate in on-call rotation and respond to production incidents.

• Ability to partner closely with product design to craft delightful user experiences.

• Ability to work in-person in our NYC office.
