Role
Who you are
- Strong software engineering skills with experience in distributed systems and backend development (ideally GoLang, but not a hard requirement as long as you’re willing to transition to it)
- Strong debugging, optimization, and performance-tuning skills
- Deep understanding of cloud platforms: hands-on experience with cloud platforms like AWS, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Microsoft Azure, and tools such as Kubernetes for containerization and orchestration
- CI/CD and DevOps practices experience
- Strong English skills, both verbal and written
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively within a team
- Startup mindset: adaptable, proactive, and comfortable with ambiguity
- A proactive, problem-solving mindset with a "yes we can" attitude
What the job involves
- As a Senior Software Engineer, you will have the opportunity to work on different key features of our product
- We are currently hiring Senior Software Engineers for the following teams:
- Reporting – Builds a scalable reporting system that ingests millions of rows per second into our time-series databases, providing insights into cost savings, workload efficiencies, and Cast AI automation impact
- Pricing – Drives the synchronization of public and customer cloud resources, availability, and dynamic pricing across all major cloud providers. Empower autoscaling by leveraging discounts, commitments, and cross-cluster tracking to maximize savings. Provide a reliable source of truth for node pricing, resources, components, discounts, and commitments
- Autoscaler – Automates Kubernetes node autoscaling to optimize clusters, balance workloads, remove underutilized nodes, and dynamically allocate capacity in real-time, thereby reducing cluster costs by half
- Workload Optimization (WOOP) – Automates workload resource management by dynamically adjusting resource allocations, helping developers significantly reduce costs and improve application reliability
- AI Enabler – Helps customers deploying and managing LLMs in their Kubernetes cluster and optimizes their workloads by providing cost visibility and intelligent routing for LLM requests to the most cost-effective compute resources (e.g. Grok, self-hosted LLAMA models)
- Here are some of the tools we use daily:
- Languages: GoLang (primary), Python (secondary for some cases)
- Cloud & Orchestration: Kubernetes, AWS, GCP, Azure
- Databases & Storage: PostgreSQL, Cloud Object Storage
- PostgreSQL and Cloud Object Storage for persistence
- Messaging & APIs: GCP Pub/Sub, gRPC for internal communication, REST for public APIs
- Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo
- CI/CD & GitOps: GitLab CI with ArgoCD
Application process
- We usually respond within three days
Our take
Managing cloud deployments effectively to control costs has become a priority for organizations of all sizes. CAST AI drives cloud optimization and cost reduction by using AI and machine learning to analyze a company’s cloud environment to identify the resources required for maximum performance.
CAST AI’s platform supports all three major cloud service providers; Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Amazon Web Services. When cloud providers have unused machines they are typically discounted by 60-70%, however, if AWS (for example) needs that machine back, they give little warning before reclaiming it. CAST AI is able to automatically detect this, and immediately replace it, meaning companies using its platform will never experience an outage of discounted machines.
As more enterprises embrace cloud technologies, CAST AI is a strong choice of provider as it provides customers with a unified, automated platform, making Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) more efficient and budget-friendly. The company has seen considerable investment that will be spent on attracting new customers, as well as helping to expand the CAST AI range of products.
