The Role
We're looking for software engineers to help build the systems that power our AI agents. You'll work across the backend, from data pipelines and integrations to agent infrastructure, shipping features alongside experienced engineers who will help you grow.
This is a role where you'll contribute to real problems from day one. We expect you to ramp up quickly, take ownership of your work, and operate with increasing independence as you learn the codebase.
What You'll Work On
You'll contribute to projects across our stack. Some examples:
Atlas: Building features for our AI assistant: charts and alerts in Slack, natural language queries, and expanding Atlas to manage platform resources
Activity Stream: Log visualization with filters, timestamps, and frequency charts to give visibility into agent behavior
Dynamic knowledge: Adding time-based knowledge (like ongoing incidents) that auto-updates from sources like status pages
Agent memory: Conversation awareness and recent interaction lookups so agents remember context across sessions
As an early-career engineer, you'll be paired with senior engineers on larger initiatives while also owning smaller projects end-to-end as you ramp up.
You Might Be a Fit If You
Have 1-3 years of professional software engineering experience
Are curious and ask good questions—you want to understand why things work, not just how
Can take feedback well and iterate quickly
Prefer shipping over perfection but still care about quality
Want to grow at a startup where you'll have real responsibility early
Perks & Benefits
Competitive base + bonus + equity
Catered lunch daily
Dinner stipend
$500/month wellness & commuter benefit (gym, fitness classes, mental health)
401(k) plan
Medical, dental, and vision coverage
Giga is an equal opportunity employer. We're committed to providing equal employment opportunities regardless of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
