About the role

Baseten’s Compute organization seeks an AI Engineer to design, build, and ship AI-powered workflows that automate the capacity lifecycle for Compute and C3, improving efficiency and reducing manual work as the company scales its GPU fleet.

Responsibilities

  • Ship AI-powered workflows for Compute and C3: build agents and automations to off-load manual and repetitive work (data pipeline cleanup, migration troubleshooting, capacity investigation).
  • Get insights in front of the team: convert fleet utilization, allocation, and demand-forecasting data into dashboards, alerts, and actionable recommendations.
  • Audit the stack and generate your own backlog: identify gaps and prioritize improvements without a handoff roadmap.
  • Ship team-productivity workflows fast: respond to requests (e.g., from Supply, Demand, C3) with rapid delivery.
  • Know when to go custom: build bespoke AI-powered solutions in Claude Code when needed.
  • Think in systems, not solutions: design workflows with upstream/downstream implications and avoid debt.
  • Integrate third-party APIs and internal systems to sync events and information across tools (C3, CRM, Compute systems).
  • Document what you build: ensure discoverability, understanding, and trust.

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience in AI/automation engineering, workflow automation, or a technical operations role in a high-growth, AI-native infrastructure or B2B company
  • Shipped production agents on Vercel with durable workflows and sandboxed execution
  • Genuine fluency with AI coding assistants and agent tooling (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or similar)
  • Direct experience with a CRM or system-of-record platform (Salesforce or similar)
  • Track record of owning end-to-end AI and automation workflows
  • Proficiency with integration and automation platforms (n8n, Zapier, Make, Workato, or similar) and a fundamental understanding of APIs and webhooks
  • Experience in high-growth technology companies, ideally in infrastructure, cloud, or operations-heavy environments

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation, including meaningful equity
  • (U.S. only) 100% coverage of medical, dental, and vision insurance for employee and dependents
  • Flexible PTO policy including company wide Winter Break (office closed from Christmas Eve to New Year’s Day)
  • Paid parental leave
  • Fertility and family-building stipend through Carrot
  • (U.S. only) Company-facilitated 401(k)
  • Exposure to a variety of ML startups for learning and networking opportunities
