United States · San Francisco, CA, USA · New York, NY, USA · Remote
Posted on Sep 13, 2025

Beam is building the fastest cloud runtime for AI. Our serverless runtime launches GPU-backed containers in under one second, powering apps that scale to millions of users. Ambitious startups and Fortune 100 companies use Beam to host custom ML models and run LLM-generated code in secure sandboxes.

Beam powers millions of requests a day for hundreds of companies using us in production. We’re a small team, but we ship quickly and work collaboratively. We’re based in NYC and SF, so we’d like if you were in either of those cities, but we’re open to remote candidates if there’s a strong fit.

What you’ll work on

  • Building new features the span our stack, from the Go/Python backend to frontend, and our SDKs
  • Making smooth user experiences in our React/Next.js/Typescript dashboard
  • Expanding our usage-based billing system that handles millions of requests per day
  • Creating developer-friendly SDK classes that wrap our lower-level gRPC client
  • Developing internal tools for managing thousands of customers

Your experience

  • Full-stack software engineering experience, ideally with Python and Next.js + React + Typescript
  • Previous experience shipping a product from 0 → 1
  • Strong communication skills
  • Enthusiasm for developer tools, cloud native technologies, and open source software
  • Golang experience is nice-to-have, but not required

Benefits

You’ll have a high degree of ownership in your work, and you will ship products that impact millions of developers worldwide. You’ll have a lot of autonomy: if you’ve got an idea for a feature that solves a customer problem, you can own it end-to-end. We work closely with our customers, so you’ll get immediate customer feedback on your work. We’re a small but fast-moving engineering team, and we’ll help you accomplish the best work of your career.
