Senior Software Engineer, Machine Learning Infrastructure & Automation

About this role

fal is the generative media ecosystem powering the next generation of AI products. We build the infrastructure, tools, and model access that teams need to move from idea to production, and do it at scale without compromise. For developers and enterprises, fal is the foundation that makes generative media not just possible, but practical: a unified platform where high-performance inference, orchestration, and observability come together to unlock new categories of AI-native products.

As generative media reshapes industries across a market projected to grow by hundreds of billions over the next decade, fal is becoming the ecosystem that ambitious teams build on.

## About this role:

Help fal's ML team move faster by building the automation, infrastructure, and developer tooling that makes developing, testing, and deploying generative AI models seamless.

You'll own and improve the CI/CD systems supporting our rapidly growing collection of ML models and inference pipelines. Your focus will be on eliminating manual work, accelerating development cycles, and building reliable systems that allow ML engineers to ship new models and optimizations with confidence.

This is a high-impact engineering role where you'll work closely with our Applied ML and ML Performance teams. You'll build everything from automated model validation and performance benchmarking to AI-powered development workflows that help engineers iterate faster.

The ideal candidate thinks beyond traditional CI/CD and sees automation as a force multiplier for the entire engineering organization.

What you’ll do:

• Own ML CI/CD infrastructure Design, build, and maintain automated testing, validation, and deployment pipelines for our ML models and inference services.
• Accelerate development cycles.Dramatically reduce CI execution times through intelligent parallelization, caching, test selection, and efficient use of compute resources.
• Build automated model validation.Develop systems that test mod...
