We have thousands of customers who rely on us for production AI workloads, including Lovable, Scale AI, Substack, and Suno.
We're a fast-growing team based out of NYC, SF, and Stockholm. We've hit 9-figure ARR and recently raised a Series B https://modal.com/blog/announcing-our-series-b at a $1.1B valuation. Our investors include Lux Capital https://www.luxcapital.com/, Redpoint Ventures https://www.redpoint.com/, Amplify Partners https://www.amplifypartners.com/, and Elad Gil https://eladgil.com/.

THE ROLE:
We're looking for strong frontend engineers who love building complex and gorgeous products, and have a high degree of customer empathy, product sense and ownership.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Experience building and shipping modern web applications end-to-end. We care more about what you’ve built than how many years you’ve been building.
