At Modular, we’re on a mission to revolutionize AI infrastructure by systematically rebuilding the AI software stack from the ground up. Our team, made up of industry leaders and experts, is building cutting-edge, modular infrastructure that simplifies AI development and deployment. By rethinking the complexities of AI systems, we’re empowering everyone to unlock AI’s full potential and tackle some of the world’s most pressing challenges.
If you’re passionate about shaping the future of AI and creating tools that make a real difference in people’s lives, we want you on our team. You can read about our culture and careers to understand how we work and what we value.
Mojo is our secret sauce, spell-book, and Mjolnir — a new programming language that blends the soul of Python with the raw, elemental power of C. It’s designed to unlock every ounce of performance from modern AI hardware, while still being human-friendly and beautifully expressive.
We’re searching for a compiler engineer who sees programming languages as both art and architecture. You’ll help design and evolve the Mojo compiler — a next-generation toolchain built on MLIR — and push the boundaries of what’s possible in heterogeneous compute and AI systems.
You won’t be maintaining legacy. You’ll be inventing the future.
