About Rescale

Rescale provides a global software platform and hardware infrastructure for companies to perform scientific and engineering simulation.

  • We provide the largest, most secure, global high performance computing (HPC) footprint seamlessly integrated into an easy-to-use platform built for engineers and scientists. We are disrupting the staid on premise HPC world.
  • Not that long ago, we were a team of two, who rendered the Boeing 787 wing on commodity hardware, saving $150M in the process. Now we are a team of 50+ software engineers, computer scientists, and domain experts, helping advanced tech companies bring their complex use cases to the cloud.
  • Investors in Rescale include Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, Chris Dixon, and Paul Graham, among others.
About the role

Rescale is pioneering the future of engineering and scientific discovery. As the leader in digital engineering, we’re transforming how products are developed—through intelligent automation, applied AI, data management, and the integration of the world’s largest network of engineering and R&D applications. Joining Rescale means becoming part of a diverse, collaborative, and mission-driven team that’s unlocking faster innovation across industries like aerospace, energy, life sciences, and manufacturing. We’re solving complex challenges that traditional HPC can’t—and we’re seeking passionate, curious minds to help build the next wave of breakthroughs.

We are seeking a product-focused Senior Software Engineer, Infrastructure to join our team!

Some of the things you will work on and impact:

  • work with your teammates to build and maintain high quality automation for building, testing, and deploying our main customer-facing platform.

  • develop and maintain critical areas of the product including HPC software publishing, HPC software licensing connectivity, and the HPC software catalog.

  • deploy, maintain and support Kubernetes clusters for the main Rescale platform.

  • build a scalable platform foundation for other internal engineering teams to use to deploy new services, using Argocd, Tekton, and Atlantis.

What we’re looking for:

  • 5+ years of backend software engineering or Devops / SRE experience.

  • Expertise or strong interest in the following areas: Kubernetes, automated deploys and build pipelines, web performance optimization (including ORM and DB profiling), deploying and scaling web applications, vm / container / application security

  • High enthusiasm for supporting both rapid proof-of-concept prototypes as well as robust, mission critical components for both internal and external stakeholders.

  • Comfortable with ambiguity, strong user-first mindset, and ability to come up with non-regrettable technical solutions.

  • Flexibility and dedication to work with designers, product managers, and other engineers in a team to ship exceptional software.

  • BS in Computer Science or equivalent experience.

Diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging are fundamental to our success. We strive to be a workplace where we:

  • Welcome ALL and ALL are welcome.

  • Show up with our whole selves or whichever parts of ourselves we’re comfortable sharing, and be ready to see the same in others.

  • Be ready to learn, unlearn, and learn again.

  • Respect others and their opinions. We practice empathy in the way we interact with each other and celebrate uniqueness as a team.

  • Seek to understand - ask more questions than one makes statements.

  • Provide safety from judgment and preserve a collaborative environment.

Technology

Problems we are Solving:

  • We're building a cloud orchestration framework to execute complex engineering workflows across multiple cloud providers.
  • We provide an additional layer of reliability, fault tolerance, and tuning for HPC applications which were not originally designed to run on cloud hardware.
  • We are helping engineering companies figure out the best way to incorporate machine learning algorithms into their design lifecycle.

Tech Stack:

  • Javascript - React/Angular
  • Python - Django Rest Framework
  • (Modern) Java - Dropwizard
  • Our core infrastructure runs on AWS. The compute clusters we run for customers are created on AWS, Azure, GCP, and IBM in the cloud, along with Bare Metal On-Premises data centers.

Our engineering team is broken up into smaller groups of 5-7 people with a combined full stack skill set. We try to keep meetings to a minimum: there is a daily standup and a weekly task estimation meeting. We have two week release cycles however developers are encouraged to push important features and bug fixes to production as needed. Writing clean, testable code is a point of emphasis and we use GitHub PRs to ensure a minimum quality bar and also to disseminate best practices and spread domain knowledge around.
