Job Summary:

Meter is a company focused on unifying the full networking stack and making it autonomous through their neural network-driven system, Meter Zero. They are seeking a Backend Engineer to design and implement core data interfaces, ensuring efficient data access and infrastructure for model development and real-time inference.

Responsibilities:

• Design and implement the Zero API: a unified interface for accessing training, evaluation, and deployment data across raw, transformed, and feature-engineered layers

• Ensure backwards compatibility and feature versioning across constantly evolving schemas

• Build scalable pipelines for ingesting, transforming, and serving petabytes of data across Kafka, Postgres, and Clickhouse

• Create CI/CD workflows that evolve the API in lockstep with changes to the underlying data schema

• Enable fine-grained querying of historical and real-time data for any network, at any point in time

• Help define and enforce the principle of "smart data, dumb functions": doing as much as possible in the data layer to keep downstream code minimal

• Collaborate with modelers to co-design training and evaluation pipelines that are reproducible, debuggable, and fast

• Own performance across key endpoints to meet real-time serving constraints

Qualifications:

Required:

• Experience designing large-scale data infrastructure, ideally across batch and streaming modes

• Deep thinking about schema design, versioning, and data quality

• Care about making systems simple to use and hard to misuse

• Enjoy partnering closely with research or modeling teams
