Fireworks AI; United States; On-site; USD 120,000 - 190,000; Full time

Job summary

Fireworks AI is building Enterprise Foundations to run AI at scale for top global customers. You will own end-to-end backend features from data models to control plane, runtime, and console, enabling large enterprises to deploy secure, auditable AI in their own cloud.

You will work across live production traffic, partner with security architects, and design primitives that scale across tenants, with a focus on reliability, billing, and governance.

Qualifications

• 4+ years building and operating production backend or distributed systems at scale.
• Strong server-side engineering skills in Go, Python, C++, TypeScript, or similar.
• Kubernetes depth and infrastructure-as-code fluency (Terraform, GitOps).
• Applied cryptography and key management: envelope encryption, KMS, and threat modeling.
• Metering, quotas, or billing systems where correctness is customer-visible.
• Enterprise identity and tenancy: SSO, SCIM provisioning, RBAC/ABAC, audit logging, and org modeling.

Responsibilities

• Own foundational capabilities end to end—from data model and API through control plane, runtime, SDK/CLI, and console.
• Design primitives that large customers organize around (organizations, sub-accounts, groups, roles, service identities).
• Connect them to enterprise directories through federation and provisioning (SSO, SCIM).
• Implement multi-tenant authorization, policy enforcement, and audit systems.
• Make usage metering, spend controls, and billing legible at scale for customers.
