What the job involves
- Anyscale is looking for an experienced Engineering leader to lead our Infrastructure, Reliability and Enterprise Governance Engineering teams
- Anyscale aims to provide the next generation of tools and infrastructure to make developing and running distributed AI applications in the cloud using Ray - the popular open source platform used by companies like Netflix, Uber, Instacart and others - seamless
- In this position, you will guide the vision, technical direction of the team, and recruit, enable a high-performing engineering team that delivers critical values to developers and Anyscale customers by solving complex distributed systems challenges
- You will oversee and drive the strategy and execution of components which includes cluster launcher, cloud providers (AWS/GCP/Azure/etc.), Kubernetes support, cluster autoscaling, control plane, data plane, reliability, billing stack, production database and related components

Our take
Anyscale operates at the heart of the rapidly expanding AI infrastructure market, where organizations increasingly need systems built to handle large-scale, multimodal, and compiled AI workloads. Founded by the original creators of Ray - an open-source distributed computing framework powering companies like Netflix, Uber, and OpenAI - Anyscale was built to overcome the "AI complexity wall" that legacy compute can't handle. And its providing an AI-native platform that can scale seamlessly from as ingle machine to thousands of GPUs.
The company's impact comes from making distributed AI development faster, easier, and far more efficient. By pairing Ray's flexible compute framework with managed clusters, advanced developer tooling, and performance optimization, Anyscale removes the operational burden of scaling AI. Companies like Canva, Recursion, and RunwayML have seen dramatic gains in utilization, speed and cost. So it's fair to say Anyscale has helped teams deliver AI applications faster and with greater reliability.
The company recently strengthened its position through major partnerships with Azure, CoreWeave, and Google Cloud, bringing AI-native compute directly into enterprise environments. New capabilities like RayTurbo, Kubernetes-native deployment, and first-party managed Ray services make it easier than ever to run high-performance AI at scale. With model sizes and multimodal workloads growing rapidly, Anyscale is in a good position to remain a foundational platform for organizations building the next generation of AI systems.
