Remote Software Jobs in Everett, WA (NOW HIRING)

Docusign brings agreements to life. Over 1.5 million customers and more than a billion people in over 180 countries use Docusign solutions to accelerate the process of doing business and simplify people's lives. With intelligent agreement management, Docusign unleashes business-critical data that is trapped inside of documents. Until now, these were disconnected from business systems of record, costing businesses time, money, and opportunity. Using Docusign's Intelligent Agreement Management platform, companies can create, commit, and manage agreements with solutions created by the #1 company in e-signature and contract lifecycle management (CLM).

As a Software Engineer on the AI Platform team, you will architect and build the robust distributed systems and backend infrastructure that power global AI capabilities. This is a systems-first role where you will be responsible for the "pipes and engines" of our AI operations, ensuring that document processing, model serving, and data orchestration are reliable, resilient, and horizontally scalable. You will bridge the gap between core AI research and production-grade engineering, developing scalable platforms for autonomous agents, advanced retrieval systems, and automated model optimization.

This position is an individual contributor role reporting to the Director, Machine Learning Engineering

Responsibility

• Build and maintain high-performance distributed systems to support large-scale model inference and data processing

• Design and build resilient, horizontally scalable backend services capable of handling high-throughput data processing and model interaction

• Develop the core infrastructure for model serving and inference runtimes, focusing on maximizing resource utilization and minimizing latency

• Architect resilient data ingestion and processing pipelines that handle massive datasets while ensuring data integrity, multi-tenant isolation, and high availability

• Optimize system performance, identify bottlenecks, and implement advanced monitoring (SLOs, SLAs) to ensure high reliability for mission-critical AI services
