This position is for a backend engineer in IBM watsonx Orchestrate’s machine learning (ML) infrastructure and Dialogue runtime team. Your responsibilities will include developing scalable and fault-tolerant distributed systems that will power our robust platform.

You do not need to have ML background; we will teach you! We are looking for experienced and strong back-backend developers, who have several years of experience with application development, preferably using container-based (e.g. with Docker runtime) micro-service architectures on the cloud (e.g. on a Kubernetes cluster).

Although this position is for ML infrastructure and Dialogue runtime, you will have to always keep the business requirements and customer needs in mind. Your responsibilities will span the entire lifecycle of a component, including gathering requirements, design and development, continuous integration/deployment and operations. You will work with researchers, data scientists, user experience designers, and product managers to understand requirements, create technical solutions, and deploy to cloud.

You will use the latest software development tools, techniques and approaches and work with leading minds in the industry to build solutions you can be proud of. You will work in a collaborative, welcoming environment where new ideas drive technological innovation.

Above all, we are looking for team members with a keen sense of ownership, resilience, and drive. If you like dynamic projects and enjoy being challenged, if you can make progress when faced with ambiguous requirements and uncertainty (and don’t mind making a mistake or two on the way), then we may be the perfect team for you!
