Job summary

Mapbox seeks a senior software engineer to own cross‑team AI initiatives across Search, Places, and Platform data work. You will define how products should work, build evaluation systems for non‑deterministic behavior, and gate changes on regression results.

You will run continuous evaluations of APIs, SDKs, data representations, and reference apps from the end user perspective. You’ll balance technical perfection with shipping incremental value.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in STEM discipline
  • 5+ years of software engineering experience with production ownership of services, pipelines, or SDKs
  • 2+ years shipping LLM-backed features to real users in regulated environments
  • Data engineering depth: SQL and at least one distributed processing framework
  • Fluency with tool calling and agent orchestration, including failure modes
  • Strong Python or TypeScript, and ability to read code in caller language
  • Experience diagnosing latency in distributed paths
  • Clear written communication across time zones

Responsibilities

  • Define how the products you own should work, build a measurement framework, and gate changes on regression results.
  • Run continuous evaluation of APIs, SDKs, data representations, and reference applications from end-user perspective.
  • Own MVP against an agreed north star technical design and balance perfection with shipping increments.
  • Build data pipelines and tooling: ingestion, conflation, entity resolution, quality checks, batch and streaming jobs.
  • Track external datasets, models, and benchmarks; decide what to adopt or build.
  • Design feedback loops so product usage generates data to improve it.
