About this role

Staff Software Engineer, Foundation Model Inference

Databricks is hiring across multiple teams in our AI Engineering org, including the FMAPI (Foundation Model APIs) team — the unified serving layer for large language models across real-time and batch inference, powering model inference at enterprise scale.

We are looking to hire high-agency engineers who bridge the gap between technical execution and product strategy.

The impact you will have:

  • Build LLM infrastructure powering large-scale inference workloads for customers through partner models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini) and self-hosted models (Qwen, GPT-OSS, Llama)
  • Shape the direction of the FMAPI product — from roadmap to execution — by leveraging deep customer empathy and direct engagement with enterprise users and model providers
  • Improve reliability, latency, and efficiency of distributed AI workloads
