What the job involves
- We are looking for an experienced software engineer to help us build a new generation of code translation tools enabled by AI and modern verification techniques that promises to bridge the gap between algorithm development and deployment to embedded systems
- In this role you will play a lead role in architecting and implementing a common platform for novel code translation pipelines that use a mix of Generative AI, Static Analysis and Formal Verification methods to translate code written in one language to another
- You will also design, build and deploy multi-language code analysis/retrieval tools at scale
- Define Software Architecture for Agentic AI pipelines. Architect and implement complex workflows involving state machines, message queues, and distributed processing
- Build well tested extensible code foundations for code translation products
- Collaborate with domain specialists to incorporate formal verification and static analysis methods into code generation pipeline
- Design language-agnostic code translation architecture patterns from practical examples
- Design, build and deploy multi-language code and library analysis tools at scale
- Work with cloud services and distributed architectures to ensure high availability
Our take
Worldwide spending on edge computing is growing at an astronomical rate. But, as organisations move to migrate their apps to the edge, the disparate nature of their approaches is making deployment difficult.
Code Metal is out to combat this with its modular, AI-powered workflows that support simpler and faster edge development. Its approach has been honed by previous work translating complex research algorithms for platform use, which it is now focusing on hardware apps for the edge.
The company has already made a splash in the space through some high-profile partnerships with the likes of L3Harris, a renowned American defence contractor. It has also raised substantial funding that it will use to expand its team, platform and launch within key industries.
