DataRobot delivers AI that maximizes impact and minimizes business risk. Our platform and applications integrate into core business processes so teams can develop, deliver, and govern AI at scale. DataRobot empowers practitioners to deliver predictive and generative AI, and enables leaders to secure their AI assets. Organizations worldwide rely on DataRobot for AI that makes sense for their business — today and in the future.

Our AI Compute team is the engine at the heart of DataRobot. We have a mission to build and operate the foundational computing backbone that powers all of DataRobot's AI products and our customers' most demanding workloads. This team works backwards from the needs of data scientists, ML engineers, and application developers to provide the raw power and sophisticated orchestration required to train, deploy, and manage agentic AI at any scale. We are the internal equivalent of a hyperscale cloud provider's core compute service, obsessed with performance, efficiency, and enabling the future of AI.

As a Staff Software Engineer in our AI Compute team, you’ll be a technical expert and a force multiplier. You’ll lead by example—rolling up your sleeves as a technical contributor to solve complex problems, shaping architecture, and mentoring engineers to do their best work and advance their careers. You’ll work across our control plane systems, influence cross-team roadmaps, and bring pragmatic engineering practices into how we build, test, and operate infrastructure software.

This role includes participation in an on-call rotation—we believe in shared ownership of our platform and aim to build systems that are resilient, observable, and require minimal intervention.
