Building data-driven AI applications and agents is too complex, even for advanced developers. At Spice AI, we’re making it simpler by helping developers combine code, data, and AI to build truly intelligent, decision-making systems. Our mission is to make this as easy as creating a modern web page.
We created Spice.ai OSS, a portable AI database written in Rust with a unified SQL interface to query, materialize, and accelerate data from any source, co-located with machine learning models. By bringing compute, data, and models together, Spice OSS enables secure AI-Feedback-Loops (AI-Fly-Wheels) for apps and agents to learn and adapt. We just announced the 1.0-stable release of Spice.ai OSS.
For a deeper dive into the vision, watch Luke's CMU Databases talk on Spice.ai OSS at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyM-ec1lKfU and read his Materialized View interview at https://materializedview.io/p/building-a-cdn-for-databases-spice-ai.
We're also building the Spice.ai Cloud Platform, offering managed, cloud-scale Spice.ai OSS along with tools for high-performance SQL, machine learning training, and inference in an interconnected AI backend-as-a-service.
At Spice AI, we hire for MEI: Merit, Excellence, and Intelligence. We're looking for exceptional, top-tier engineers - A players - who are driven to solve hard problems and push the boundaries of what's possible for AI.
Who we are looking for
- You are an exceptional engineer.
- You are a problem solver. You start customer problems and figure out how to solve them with technology.
- You think differently. You do not accept the status-quo. You challenge the current model of the world and take leaps of faith to build it better for everyone.
- You are positive. Instead of focusing on limitations, you ask what’s possible.
- You care about meaningful work. Your work is more than a job.
- You are comfortable with ambiguity and unknowns, and in these situations, you lead by creating clarity.
- You are passionate about high performance and have high standards.
What we're looking for
- At least 2 years professional experience with Rust or 3+ years professional experience in C/C++
- Experience in designing, implementing, scaling and shipping production distributed and data systems.
- A track record of strong design, architectural, engineering and product decisions.
- Excellent communication skills.
- Ability to ramp up quickly and hit the ground running.
- Ideally experience contributing to open-source projects.
- Experience with Apache infra, CNCF-stack, and cloud-native development, and ideally with Rust/Golang.
Your responsibilities
- An outstanding contributor in the Spice.ai open-source project.
- Creating, designing, and building the distributed and data systems architecture of the Spice.ai Cloud Platform, our cloud systems, and spicerack.org.
- Take ownership and drive initiatives for improving the product.
Your first 90-days
- Your first month - ramp up and contribute improvements to the Spice.ai project
- 30-60 days - contribute to weekly Spice.ai releases
- 60-90 days - take technical and engineering ownership of an entire feature area
