📋 Description

• • Veritone is on a mission to democratize Artificial Intelligence, empowering organizations and individuals with its transformative capabilities. Our journey began in 2014 with the vision of providing unified access to hundreds of cognitive engines through a singular software infrastructure. This vision has since evolved into the world's first AI operating system, aiWARE. aiWARE is designed to orchestrate a diverse ecosystem of cognitive engines, driving intelligent automation for both commercial and government sectors. As we continue to innovate, our focus remains on evolving human involvement in workflows, moving from 'in the loop' to 'on the loop' and ultimately 'out of the loop.' This strategic shift aims to accelerate workflows, significantly reduce time and costs, and uncover novel insights and opportunities for our clients.
• • As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be instrumental in navigating complex and often ambiguous challenges within uncharted territories. You will tackle novel problems that require innovative solutions, pushing the boundaries of what's possible with AI. Your role will involve deep collaboration with cross-functional engineering teams, fostering architectural alignment, and influencing the achievement of high-impact, shared objectives. This collaborative spirit is key to our success in building cutting-edge AI solutions.
• • You will serve as a pivotal contributor in shaping the technical direction of your team. This includes establishing and championing best practices in software development, ensuring code quality, maintainability, and scalability.

• • A core aspect of your role will be to build and deploy solutions that are not only maintainable and cost-effective but also highly responsive to customer needs. We emphasize a high speed-to-market without compromising on quality or reliability. This means developing robust, scalable applications and services that deliver tangible value to our users quickly and efficiently.
• • You will actively partner with product management, design, and infrastructure teams. This cross-functional collaboration is essential for enhancing existing applications and services, as well as building new ones that leverage the full potential of our aiWARE platform. Your insights and contributions will directly impact the user experience and the overall functionality of our AI solutions.
• • Driving application reliability is paramount. You will work closely with our Operations and Infrastructure teams to build, scale, and meticulously monitor our services. This proactive approach ensures that our systems are robust, available, and performant, meeting the demanding requirements of mission-critical applications.
