Overview

We are looking for an experienced software engineer to help us build a new generation of code translation tools enabled by AI and modern verification techniques that promises to bridge the gap between algorithm development and deployment to embedded systems.

In this role you will play a lead role in architecting and implementing a common platform for novel code translation pipelines that use a mix of Generative AI, Static Analysis and Formal Verification methods to translate code written in one language to another. You will also design, build and deploy multi-language code analysis/retrieval tools at scale.

Responsibilities

  • Define Software Architecture for Agentic AI pipelines. Architect and implement complex workflows involving state machines, message queues, and distributed processing.
  • Build well tested extensible code foundations for code translation products.
  • Collaborate with domain specialists to incorporate formal verification and static analysis methods into code generation pipeline.
  • Design language-agnostic code translation architecture patterns from practical examples
  • Design, build and deploy multi-language code and library analysis tools at scale
  • Work with cloud services and distributed architectures to ensure high availability.

Must Have

  • Seven or more years of experience with collaborative enterprise-level software development in Python to deliver products to a large customer base
  • Demonstrated experience gathering requirements from stakeholders and distilling them into software designs
  • Demonstrated experience planning and executing on large projects in a team-based setting
  • Demonstrated history of building and delivering robust software by employing best practices throughout the SDLC process, including Code review, Testing, Continuous integration, Release management and Build systems
  • Familiarity with Machine Learning Tools and Frameworks
  • Expertise in building scalable APIs (REST, GraphQL, gRPC).
  • Hands-on experience with Docker and containerized application development.

Great to Have

  • Familiarity with agentic AI frameworks and solutions
  • Familiarity with code analysis / static analysis.
  • Experience working with cloud-based distributed systems (AWS, GCP, Azure).

View company profile

At Code Metal, we are driven by a mission to revolutionize the way software is developed for hardware. We are a team of seasoned professionals, drawing on decades of collective experience from the forefront of AI research at institutions like MIT and from industry powerhouses such as Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon. Our journey began with a shared frustration: the immense difficulty and time-consuming nature of translating sophisticated, high-level algorithms into optimized, production-ready code for edge devices. We witnessed firsthand, in environments ranging from developing systems for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter to the Microsoft HoloLens, the critical bottleneck that exists between research and real-world application. This experience is the bedrock upon which we built Code Metal.

We are creating a future where developing for hardware is no longer a barrier to innovation. Our AI-powered platform is designed to automate and accelerate this entire workflow. We empower developers to upload their research code in languages like Python, Julia, or MATLAB, and our system seamlessly translates it into highly optimized, low-level code tailored for specific edge-ready chipsets. This isn't just about speed; it's about trust and reliability. Our agentic workflows are modular and verifiable, generating comprehensive test suites and validation artifacts to ensure the resulting code is not only efficient but also robust and correct. We are fundamentally changing the development lifecycle, reducing timelines from months to mere days. By bridging the gap between the brilliant minds in research and the hardware that powers our world, we are unlocking a new wave of innovation in robotics, defense, and beyond. We're not just building tools; we're building the foundation for the next generation of intelligent systems.
