Who we are

Solo empowers teams to build and scale their AI infrastructure using cloud-native tech. Most companies have shifted from asking 'How can we make AI useful?' and are instead now asking 'How do we take our AI projects to production?'. A recent MIT study reveals a shocking 95% of GenAI projects never make it there or fail to deliver positive ROI. At Solo, our AI initiatives are helping teams bridge that gap from pilot to production.

With our roots in critical cloud infrastructure (gateways, proxies, service mesh) trusted by Fortune 500s, Solo is uniquely positioned to lead AI's next wave. As a nimble startup, we innovate faster, our engineers contribute to high-impact OSS (we're a top CNCF contributor) and solve real scalability challenges.

Solo is a VC-backed company, founded in 2017 by Idit Levine. In 2021, Solo was valued at $1B. Solo’s customers are some of the largest in the world, spanning all geographies and industries. Solo’s team has deep expertise in Cloud Computing, Linux, Containers, Kubernetes, Service Mesh, APIs, AI, Security, Networking, Microservice Applications and Infrastructure Modernization.

About the role

As a UI-Focused Fullstack Engineer at Solo, you’ll bring our cutting-edge cloud and AI products to life for our customers. Your work will transform powerful but complex infrastructure into intuitive, engaging, and delightful user experiences. This is not just about building web apps—it’s about shaping how engineers and enterprises around the world interact with the next generation of AI and cloud-native platforms.

You’ll contribute to both frontend frameworks and backend APIs, ensuring usability and performance go hand in hand.
