As a Principal Member of Technical Staff (Full-stack, Backend-Focused, Python) you’ll help build and support our core platform that automates scientific discovery. You’ll work across the stack designing and building backend services, APIs, and data pipelines, while also contributing to user-facing features that make those capabilities accessible and intuitive.
Our mission is to build an AI scientist, and you’ll help build the tools, interfaces, and data systems it relies on. While this role leans heavily toward backend engineering, you’ll regularly collaborate with frontend engineers, designers, and researchers to deliver end-to-end functionality.
At Edison Scientific, full-stack engineering isn’t about doing “a little bit of everything.” It’s about owning features from concept to production, understanding how systems fit together, and building reliable foundations that accelerate humanity’s ability to ask bigger questions- and find answers faster.
This role is on-site at our San Francisco office in the Dogpatch neighborhood. Our office is a converted warehouse with high ceilings, open space, and a team that genuinely believes in what they’re building.
This position is part of the Product Engineering team.
