Member of Technical Staff (EMEA)New
The opportunity
Fireworks is the platform for specialized intelligence, enabling companies to build, train, and serve AI models tailored to their own data, workflows, and products. Founded by the team behind PyTorch and backed by AMD, Atreides, Benchmark Capital, Index Ventures, Lightspeed,…
What you'll do
Build: Design and ship product capabilities end to end, from ambiguous need to running in production.
Build on Inference: Create capabilities on top of the serving stack: routing, model controls, observability, and whatever a deployment turns out to need.
Build on Training: Ship tooling around fine-tuning and post-training of LLMs, from data pipelines to evaluation, working alongside our applied ML engineers.
Own Regional Capability: Turn EMEA-specific requirements into product, working with core platform where the line is unclear.
Engineering Quality: Set the engineering bar for the regional team; your code is the reference.
Agentic Development: Use coding agents and AI tooling as a core part of how you build, with judgment about when to trust the output.
What they're looking for
- Optional Customer Work: Join deployments or customer conversations when useful or interesting; never required.
- First principles and critical thinking: the ability to break down novel problems and reason to a solution without a reference implementation. This is the primary interview signal and can outweigh other qualifications.
- Excellent software engineering: depth in backend systems and infrastructure, and a track record of shipping production systems you owned.
- Strong coding skills in Python and at least one systems language.
