Description

We are looking for a passionate AI Engineer excited to help us invent the future of how developers use AI to build and manage Cloud Infrastructure. You will be a part of realizing a vision where every developer can harness the power of the cloud.

As an AI Engineer at Pulumi, you will independently drive product and infrastructure initiatives that apply modern AI capabilities (LLMs, model fine-tuning, data systems and more) to the Pulumi platform.  You will build the future of the Pulumi AI product, as well as the integration of AI capabilities into Pulumi’s open source CLI and SDKs and the Pulumi Cloud.

We are looking for a seasoned and deeply technical engineer, versed in cloud and cloud infrastructure, with a strong AI/ML background and familiarity with applying new advances in generative AI to new product experiences.

At Pulumi you will be challenged, learn, teach, and collaborate with an elite team of great people.

While Pulumi is headquartered in Seattle, WA., we are dedicated to being a remote first company.

Responsibilities:

Our team builds and maintains pulumi.com/ai and owns AI research at Pulumi. We empower thousands of companies using Pulumi to program the cloud and safely deploy infrastructure every day.

On any given day at Pulumi you might find yourself: 

  • Creating new interfaces using generative AI for users to deploy infrastructure with Pulumi.
  • Developing vector databases and embeddings to serve our customers’ unique needs.
  • Fine tuning a model to generate better code using Pulumi’s unique semantics.
  • Writing evals or building new test harnesses for benchmarking LLMs.
  • Driving AI projects across various parts of the Pulumi product surface area, including the open source CLI, collaborating with partner teams to light up magical experiences for customers.
  • Building infrastructure and systems to support scalable, performant and cost-effective delivery of AI capabilities across our products.

We’re Looking For Someone With:

We’re hiring motivated engineers from senior to principal, but it helps if you have experience and excitement in these areas:

  • Traditional AI/ML, or
  • Applying generative AI as part of product offerings (prompt engineering, model fine-tuning, retrieval-augmented generation and more).
  • Empowering everyone to build applications in the cloud with AI.
  • Designing APIs, SDKs, developer tools.
  • Using TypeScript to build web applications, full stack or backend.
  • A product mindset, focus on driving users and contributors to success.
  • Experience with deployment orchestration and infrastructure as code tools.
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.

Compensation:

  • Base Salary Hiring Range: $180,500 to $227,850
  • All full time employee offers at Pulumi include base salary, bonus or variable, equity and benefits (details below).

Pulumi Benefits:

  • Health (US Only) - We offer competitive medical, dental, vision, and supplemental insurance. It is free for our direct employees to be on our insurance.
  • Time Off - Unlimited personal time off (PTO). We ask that employees take at least 3 weeks off during the year in addition to the 13 US holidays we recognize.
  • 401K (US Only) - With employer match
  • Parental Leave - 20 weeks paid parental leave for the birthing parent or primary caregiver, and 16 for non-birthing parent or secondary caregiver.
  • Remote-First - We are a 100% remote-first company with employees in nearly 20 states, and growing internationally; we encourage asynchronous communication and autonomy. We also provide an annual work from anywhere fund to help cover the employee costs of working remotely.
  • Professional Development & Growth - We encourage a lifelong learning mindset and every employee is given an annual professional development budget.
  • Equity - As a small but growing startup, we all act like owners and you will earn equity in the company.
  • Additional Funds - We offer employees a monthly wellness fund to be spent on anything physical and/or mental wellbeing related. We also provide a quarterly happiness fund to be used toward anything that makes our employees happy!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
