About the role
At SignalLabs, we are passionate about enabling enterprises to turn their data intodecisions that move the world forward, from helping financial institutions detectrisk in real time to accelerating how healthcare and industrial teams act on criticalsignals. We do this by building and running SignalOS and SignalGraph, theplatform behind the world's most demanding signal intelligence workloads, so ourcustomers can convert raw events into context, context into hypothesis andreasoning, and hypothesis into Attention. Founded by engineers and customerobsessed we leap at every opportunity to solve hard technical challenges, fromexploring connected data to scaling our infrastructure across billions of signals aday. And we're only getting started.
The impact you'll have:As a software engineer with a backend focus, you will work with your team tobuild infrastructure and products for the platform at scale. Ourbackend teams span the architectural pillars that power signal intelligence end-to-end: Data Discovery, where we crawl, profile, and onboard heterogeneous datasources into the platform; the Semantic Module, where raw entities and events areresolved into a unified, meaning-rich representation; the Signal Detection andCorrelation Engine, where signals are scored, joined, and elevated into high-confidence signals across time and context; the System of Attention, where themost consequential signals are routed, ranked, and surfaced to the right decision-Job Description: Senior Staff Engineer1maker at the right moment; and the Reinforcement Learning Feedback Loop,where every human and machine response is captured to continuously sharpendetection, correlation, and prioritization. You'll own meaningful surface area in oneof these domains while shaping how they compose into a single, coherentplatform.
