Who we are Hi! We're bem. We are building the infrastructure layer for modern enterprise workflows. For decades, the world's most critical industries, supply chain, insurance, financial services, and healthcare, have been hamstrung by unstructured data. Trillions of dollars in revenue and operational decisions are trapped in messy PDFs, complex emails, and endless spreadsheets. While the AI revolution has promised a solution, most offerings are flashy toys, not the dependable, high-accuracy systems that enterprises can actually trust. We are changing that. bem provides a new paradigm: an AI platform that automates the toughest, most unstructured enterprise workflows with a degree of accuracy and control that was previously impossible. We don't just extract data; we deliver reliable, trainable AI functions that can be orchestrated to automate entire end-to-end business processes. We are the trusted, operational infrastructure that turns chaos into structure. Backed by top-tier investors and pulled forward by compounding market demand, we are looking for a foundational member to help us build a generational company. The opportunity Software is at an inflection point. Businesses have spent decades patching together workflows, hacking inefficiencies with spreadsheets, RPA, and now AI agents. But those tools weren't designed for the future-they were built to survive the past. At bem, we're changing the game. We're building ambient business systems-software that doesn't just automate tasks but transforms operations entirely. Our AI-powered platform eliminates the manual, fragmented back-office processes that slow businesses down. We're not just another automation tool. We're building the foundational infrastructure for the next 100 years of business software. Fortune 500 companies and high-growth startups already rely on bem to replace broken, manual workflows with intelligent, reusable components. That's where you come in. Why this role This is a unique Platform Engineering role that sits at the intersection of software engineering and infrastructure. We're looking for someone who can architect the data and compute infrastructure that powers our AI systems-whether you come from a software engineering background with infrastructure passion or an SRE background with strong development skills. Own the Data Pipeline: You'll be the architect of how data flows through our systems-from ingestion to processing to delivery. Your expertise in schemas, CAP tradeoffs, and transactional guarantees will directly impact customer value. Solve Uncharted Infrastructure Problems: The infrastructure challenges of scaling AI systems are an open sea. You won't be implementing solved problems; you'll be defining the future of scalable GPU compute and AI infrastructure on the cloud and at the edge. No CUDA, shoulda, woulda here! Work with a Veteran Team: You will be working alongside, and learning from, seasoned experts who have built and scaled products to hundreds of millions of users across uses as varied as SaaS for agriculture and grocery stores, AI agents in healthcare, cloud infrastructure, and AI code co-pilots (pre-transformer models!). Product-Obsessed, Not Tech-Obsessed: We are a product-led company, not a consulting firm deploying AI for its own sake. Infrastructure is our product. What you'll do Architect Data Infrastructure: Design and build robust data pipelines that handle stochastic data with transactional guarantees. Automate DDL evolution, ensure low latency and high durability, and make complex data simple for our customers. Build Multi-Cloud Foundations: Deploy and manage infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and GCP-this is table stakes for our enterprise distribution strategy. Infrastructure as Code: Everything is code. Use Terraform (OpenTofu) and Pulumi to create repeatable, versioned, and auditable infrastructure. Security-First Mindset: Foster a security-first culture that protects user data and reduces GTM friction-from software supply chain security to VPC configurations that satisfy highly secure enterprise requirements. Automate Everything: Apply a software engineering mindset to eliminate manual toil and build self-healing systems. Collaborate and Educate: Work as an embedded expert within the engineering team, guiding best practices in reliability, scalability, and observability. What we're looking for Data Engineering Expertise: Deep understanding of data systems, including: Schema design and evolution CAP theorem tradeoffs in practice Stream processing and batch processing patterns Experience with modern data warehouses (e.g. Snowflake, Databricks, ClickHouse, or Motherduck) and relational database engines. Multi-Cloud Proficiency: Hands-on experience with at least two major cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and understanding their nuanced differences. Infrastructure as Code: Proven experience componentizing and managing infrastructure through IaC tools-this is step zero, not a nice-to-have. Security Implementation: Practical experience with infrastructure security, including container security, network isolation, and meeting enterprise compliance requirements. Networking Skills: Strong expertise in modern cloud networking concepts, including Virtual Network Design, VPC peering, VPN management and the implementation of Zero Trust principles. Software Engineering Foundation: Strong coding skills and ability to build tools, not just configure them. We value your ability to write production code. Bonus points for… Experience with GPU compute infrastructure and ML model serving Familiarity with edge computing and hybrid cloud architectures Background in high-throughput, low-latency systems Experience with observability platforms and distributed tracing Contributions to open-source infrastructure projects Your values Deeply curious: You don't just want to help customers implement bem-you want to help them see what's next. You learn quickly: There's a lot to be done. We need someone who can juggle many balls and optimize their critical tasks into processes over time. Comfortable in ambiguity: You thrive in fast-moving environments where playbooks are still being written. You've got creative horsepower: …and you're not chasing the latest "thought leadership" or “building in public” trends. Excited about the future of enterprise software and interfaces: You believe that RPA, agents, and manual integrations are relics of the past-and you want to help build what's next. Why bem? Work directly with founders & leadership on high-impact, strategic projects. Competitive comp, including early equity. Hybrid work environment (3 days in-office) with flexibility to balance work and life. Be part of a fast-moving, high-growth startup backed by top investors (Uncork Capital, Kevin Mahaffey, Garry Tan). Help build a new category of software-not just another SaaS tool, but the infrastructure for the next generation of business computing.

At HUD, we're building the future of how companies and individuals train and evaluate AI. We believe that in the near future, most post-training data used to align and improve LLMs will flow through HUD. We build a platform and developer tools that let teams create post-training data through RL environments and run reinforcement fine-tuning (RFT) reliably, reproducibly, and at scale. We're trusted by foundation labs, Fortune 500s, and fast-growing startups. We're also a high-caliber team: former founders, published ML researchers, Olympiad medalists, and engineers who have built products with real adoption. We run lean, move fast, and hold an extremely high bar. The Role We're hiring a Founding Engineer to be a core contributor across our platform, SDK, and developer experience. This is a high-ownership role at the center of the product: you'll build primitives, APIs, and workflows that ML engineers and researchers use daily to create data, run post-training, and evaluate systems. You'll operate across the stack-from Python SDK design to backend systems and infrastructure-while staying relentlessly product-minded. You'll also work directly with customers (engineers and researchers at startups, enterprises, and frontier labs) to understand their workflows, unblock them, and ship what they actually need. If you've ever cared deeply about how ML tools feel to use-ergonomics, reliability, abstractions, and “it just works” workflows-this role is for you. Who You AreProduct owner with elite engineering taste You don't just build features-you build products . You can hold a cohesive vision for developer experience, make sharp tradeoffs, and ship workflows that feel obvious in hindsight. Full stack, Python-first, systems-capable You're deeply fluent in Python and comfortable across the stack: backend APIs, storage, distributed systems, and front-end surfaces when needed. You understand containers and runtime environments at a real level-Docker isn't magic to you. ML dev tools instinct + high technical aptitude You have unusually strong technical intuition. You spot leaky abstractions, design APIs that age well, and build tooling that makes power users faster. You care about correctness, performance, and sharp interfaces. Comfortable with ML fundamentals (RL a big plus) You don't need to be an academic, but you should be able to reason about core ML concepts and math. Ideally you've trained models, worked with post-training workflows, or understand reinforcement learning well enough to build tools around it. Evals mindset You care about evaluation as a first-class product surface. Experience with Inspect or other evaluation harnesses/frameworks is a major plus, as is building eval and training pipelines for LLMs, agents, or multimodal systems. AI-native builder You're proficient with modern AI coding tools and agentic workflows (Cursor, Copilot, Claude/ChatGPT-style assistants, eval-driven iteration, etc.). You move fast without sacrificing rigor. Customer-minded engineer You can jump into a customer's environment, understand what's broken, propose a solution, and deliver it-while also feeding insights back into the roadmap. You can communicate clearly with both engineers and researchers. What You'll DoBuild the core HUD platform Design and implement backend systems for post-training workflows (RFT jobs, dataset/data flow primitives, run tracking, artifacts, permissions). Build reliable execution and orchestration primitives with strong isolation and reproducibility. Own the SDK and developer experience Build and iterate on our Python SDK: clean APIs, excellent docs, great errors, sharp defaults, and extensibility. Create “golden path” workflows for common user goals: creating post-training data, launching RFT runs, evaluating results, and iterating quickly. Ship eval-native workflows Help build eval pipelines for LLMs/agents that connect naturally to post-training loops (capability measurement → data creation → training → re-eval). Go deep on systems and reliability Build with Docker, Linux, and cloud infrastructure in mind; ensure consistent environments across local, CI, and production. Improve performance, observability, and debuggability of job execution and data pipelines. Contribute to Kubernetes deployment patterns and scaling. Work directly with customers Partner with engineers and researchers at startups, enterprises, and foundation labs. Turn messy real-world feedback into product improvements: better abstractions, missing primitives, clearer docs, smoother onboarding. What We're Looking For (Skills & Experience) Required Strong production experience in Python. Comfort across the stack (APIs, data systems, frontend integration where needed). Deep understanding of Docker and Linux environments; strong debugging ability. Cloud competence (K8s and AWS fundamentals-compute, networking, storage, IAM). Strong product instincts and a bias toward shipping. Ability to write clean, maintainable code with strong taste in interfaces and DX. Strong Plus Experience with reinforcement learning, post-training, or model training workflows. Experience building or using LLM/agent eval frameworks (Inspect, EleutherAI tooling, custom harnesses). Experience designing SDKs, CLIs, or developer platforms. Kubernetes experience (deployment, scaling, job orchestration). Active participation in the ML community (open-source contributions, writing, research engagement, etc.). What Success Looks Like You own product features end to end, working autonomously with the team to improve core customer experiences. The SDK feels intuitive and inevitable: sharp, consistent, well-documented, hard to misuse. The platform is dependable under real-world load: reproducible runs, fast performance, clear logs, great debugging, smooth onboarding. Customers feel like HUD gives them leverage-your work directly drives adoption and retention. Why You'll Love It Here High talent density, low ego. You'll work with unusually strong peers who care about craft. Real ownership. You'll shape the core product and its direction at a pivotal stage. Hard problems with real impact. Post-training, evals, and RL workflows are still early-your work defines best practices. Move fast, build right. We care about speed and quality, and we invest in doing things correctly. Logistics Locations: San Francisco / Singapore Type: Full-time Visa/Relocation: Available for strong candidates (US/Singapore) Compensation: $150,000-$240,000 salary, meaningful equity, full healthcare, daily team meals.
