About Roboflow

Everything you need to build and deploy computer vision models, from automated annotation tools to high-performance deployment solutions. Backed by Y Combinator and GV.

About the role

Our team is small relative to our impact, and we believe our user success is our success (not the inverse). A team member summarized: “Roboflow is a company full of giant brains and tiny egos.” We find software has a multiplier effect on all roles (not only product and engineering), so Roboflow employs developers across the company in design, sales, customer support, marketing, and beyond.

What they're looking for

  • You are an experienced Machine Learning practitioner who wants to be an important part of an exceptional team that focuses on using Roboflow's computer vision tools to impact and improve every industry. You have high agency and a bias toward action
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience building and operating production-grade ML systems, ideally involving large-scale deployment of modern AI models
  • A real CV/ML foundation — you understand what inference does: how computer vision models work internally, how they're deployed across diverse environments, and how to adapt them for real-world, high-impact use
  • Strong CS and systems background , with the ability to independently tackle complex programming, architecture, and reliability challenges and exercise sound judgment on when to move fast and when rigor is essential
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD, release engineering, and test infrastructure — you've built or substantially improved automated testing and delivery pipelines before
  • Practical expertise with core ML technologies , including several of the following: PyTorch, TensorFlow, ONNX, TensorRT, vLLM (or other LLM/model deployment tools)
