Systems Engineer

• Are taking an ambitious approach to a massive market, and each team member’s responsibilities reflect this. At Exponent, a single-engineer owned product like the Code Review Agent regularly outperforms entire companies dedicated to the same problem.
• Are a team of engineers who have each been building software for over a decade, and value technical depth in a world where it’s increasingly easy to forego it. We come from a background of systems and infrastructure engineering, working on things like the Swift Compiler, distributed data orchestration software, and scaled video conferencing systems.

• Build and maintain one of the key infrastructure components of Exponent, such as the Exponent control plane server, the fleet of servers hosting user codebases, database proxies, continuous release pipelines for on prem deployments, and so on.
• Innovate on new infrastructure that hasn’t been invited yet that will be required to make working with agents at scale possible for large enterprise engineering teams.

• Have experience with modern backend Python stack. We build from the ground up on simple primitives: Python, FastAPI, Postgres, and Redis
• Have experience working on a systems or infrastructure project, such as a compiler, orchestration system, message queue, database, or other distributed system. Exponent’s product requires fault tolerant, low latency, and real time communication between several services, and a history of working on such systems is a plus.
• Deep understanding of terminal emulation and shells (Exponent agents have deep integrations with terminals to run and iterate on code)
• Infrastructure experience with systems like Kubernetes or lower level tools such as Fireworks and Unikernels.
