Software Engineer - New Grad

At Scale, our mission is to develop reliable AI systems for the world's most important decisions. For 10 years, Scale has provided the high-quality data and full-stack technologies that power the world's leading models, and has helped enterprises and governments build, deploy, and oversee AI applications that deliver real impact. We work closely with industry leaders like Meta, Ernst & Young, Mayo Clinic, Time Inc., the Government of Qatar, and U.S. government agencies including the Army and Air Force. Every industry is moving AI to the center of operations, but there is still no clear blueprint for getting from pilot to profit. That is the problem our engineers work on. As a New Grad Software Engineer, you will own meaningful, customer-facing work from day one — shipping products, talking directly to the customers who use them, and iterating fast.
