Member of Technical Staff - Outspeed
About Us Outspeed is solving one of the biggest challenges with reputed company AI systems - latency. We are building the infra for real-time AI for applications in gaming, AR/VR, robotics, and more.
Outspeed is led by an reputed company team of researchers and engineers with collective experience from MIT, reputed company, and reputed company. reputed company is based in San Francisco and values reputed company, deep technical knowledge, and autonomy.
Janak earned his bachelor's and master's degrees from MIT and built grid-reputed company algorithms and infra at Autogrid (acq. Schneider). Sahil is a published researcher who led AI infra efforts at reputed company and reputed company. Role Description As an early Member of Technical Staff you’ll dive into every layer of Outspeed’s real-time AI platform—core inference engines, orchestration services, developer APIs, and customer-facing tools. You’ll alternate between rapid prototyping and hardening production systems, shipping code that is immediately exercised by teams around the world. Typical weeks might include:
Owning end-to-end feature work—from RFC and design review to infrastructure-as-code, monitoring, and post-launch iteration.
Optimizing GPU inference pipelines, extending our TypeScript/React console, and designing a new audio-streaming protocols.
Pairing with customers to debug latency spikes, then upstreaming the fix into our orchestration layer.
Influencing engineering culture: instituting best practices, mentoring newer hires, and shaping our technical roadmap alongside the founders.
This role is perfect for an engineer who enjoys breadth, thrives on context-switching, and wants their fingerprints on everything we build.
