- ML Engineering and MLOps - we aim to infuse EVERY business process with ML and AI, relying on closed-loop decision-making at every valuable juncture
- Simulation ecosystem - our ML- and AI-centric workflows need training and testing
- Workflow orchestration - we live in the land of complex, autonomous, multi-step sequential workflows operating in a distributed runtime with low latency requirements
- Service mesh - we rely heavily on reuse of core microservices to keep application development productivity high, which requires thoughtful service mesh management
- Application development - we’ve just started designing and developing across our anchor product suites, each focused on leveraging a common platform and service core
- DevSecOps - security is inherently embedded within our development and operations practices, and we leverage bespoke security techniques for some unique exposures
- Assist in product development strategy, design, planning and productivity
- Contribute your unique technical, user, and market knowledge to product strategy
- Contribute to product and architectural design
- Contribute to product roadmapping, resource planning and sprint management
- Contribute to product development productivity improvements, including best practices, technical documentation, code reviews and automation / utility / abstraction packages
- Serve as a member of our technical team across both engineering and research
- Collaborate asynchronously with engineers, researchers and product managers across time zones to design, build and ship code
- Contribute to technical strategy and planning across the company
- Represent Equilibrium in external venues, including presenting work at conferences and contributing to open-source projects
