Software Engineer

We're looking for software engineers to join us on our mission to build AI superpowers for developers.

About Codeium

Featured on the Forbes AI 50 list, Codeium has risen to become a leader in the AI developer tools space in just over a year, giving hundreds of thousands of users around the world code autocomplete, in-editor chat assistants, and more.

Our Windsurf IDE is the first code editor developed around AI flows, allowing developers to seamlessly use AI to develop anything from brand new apps to million line codebases. Our state-of-the-art proprietary language models and custom inference stack allow us to deliver the best experience possible to our users. We've achieved substantial revenue and enterprise traction as proof of the quality and usefulness of our tools.We're one of the fastest growing AI startups, focused on product, revenue, and customer experience. We work hard, and we operate with a high degree of trust, agency, and ownership.

What we're looking for

• Bachelors / Masters degree in computer science, mathematics or physics.

• 1+ years of Software Engineering experience.

• Ideally attendance at a top university, or participation in programming contests.

Challenges

• How do we develop a code generation and editing system capable of solving many everyday developer tasks?

• What's the next big interface after autocomplete and chat for interacting with AI?

• How do we maintain reliability and scalability of our service across a wide range of IDEs, platforms, hardware, and programming languages?

What we believe

• Our best work is done in person. The team goes in 5 days a week into our office in downtown Mountain View, CA (within walking distance of the Caltrain station).

• Research is in service of a better product. While we read many papers, we won't have time to write them. The best AI researchers have excellent software engineering skills and know that infrastructure and evaluation work are critical.

Recent projects

Some of the things that our engineers have worked on recently:

• Regularly deploying an autocomplete and chat product that scales to hundreds of thousands of daily active users.

• Codeium Live: Chat in your browser with popular repositories.

• An internal Kubernetes-native data processing framework to handle petabytes of data across thousands of spot CPUs.

• A code attribution service for customers who want to ensure any generated code is licensed properly.

• Instruction and edit fine-tuned models for Codeium Command.

• Model inference performance optimization using Nvidia CUTLASS, CUDA C++, and PTX assembly language.

• Remote parsing, embedding, and indexing of users' codebases.
