Full-Stack Engineer, AI Data Platform

We’re looking for a Full-Stack AI Engineer to join our team, where you’ll build the next generation of tools for developing, evaluating, and training state-of-the-art AI systems. You will own features end to end—from user-facing experiences and APIs to backend services, data models, and infrastructure. 

You’ll be at the heart of our applied AI efforts, with a particular focus on human-in-the-loop systems used to generate high-quality training data for Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI agents. This includes building a platform that enables us and our customers to create and evaluate data, as well as systems that leverage LLMs to assist with reviewing, scoring, and improving human submissions.

• Own End-to-End Product Features
  Design, build, and ship complete workflows spanning frontend UI, APIs, backend services, databases, and production infrastructure.
• Enable Human-in-the-Loop AI Training
  Build systems that allow humans to efficiently create, review, and curate high-quality training and evaluation data used in AI model development.
• Support RLHF and Preference Data Workflows
  Design and implement tooling that supports RLHF-style pipelines, including task generation, human review, scoring, aggregation, and dataset versioning.
• Leverage LLMs in the Review Loop
  Build systems that use LLMs to assist human reviewers—such as automated checks, critiques, ranking suggestions, or quality signals—while maintaining human oversight.
• Advance AI Evaluation
  Design and implement evaluation frameworks and interactive tools for LLMs and AI agents across multiple data modalities (text, images, audio, video).
• Create Intuitive, Reviewer-Focused Interfaces
  Build thoughtful, efficient user interfaces (e.g., in React) optimized for high-throughput human review, quality control, and operational workflows.
• Architect Scalable Data & Service Layers
  Design APIs, backend services, and data schemas that support large-scale data creation, review, and iteration with strong guarantees around correctness and traceability.
• Solve Ambiguous, Real-World Problems
  Translate loosely defined operational and research needs into practical, scalable, end-to-end systems.
• Ensure System Reliability
  Participate in on-call rotations to monitor, troubleshoot, and resolve issues across the full stack.
• Elevate the Team
  Improve engineering practices, development processes, and documentation. Share knowledge through technical writing and design discussions.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related field.
• 2+ years of experience in a software or machine learning engineering role.
• A proactive, product-focused mindset and a high degree of ownership, with a passion for building solutions that empower users.
• Experience using frontend frameworks like React/Redux and backend systems and technologies like Python, Java, GraphQL; familiarity with NodeJS and NestJS is a plus.
• Knowledge of designing and managing scalable database systems, including relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL), NoSQL stores (e.g., MongoDB, Cassandra), and cloud-native solutions (e.g., Google Spanner, AWS DynamoDB).
• Familiarity with cloud infrastructure like GCP (GCS, PubSub) and containerization (Kubernetes) is a plus.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
• High proficiency in leveraging AI tools for daily development (e.g., Cursor, GitHub Copilot).

• A focus on writing clean, well-tested code and delivering your work on time.

• Experience building tools for AI/ML applications, particularly for data annotation, monitoring, or agent evaluation.
• Familiarity with data infrastructure components such as data pipelines, streaming systems, and storage architectures (e.g., Cloud Buckets, Key-Value Stores).
• Previous experience with search engines (e.g., ElasticSearch).
• Experience in optimizing databases for performance (e.g., schema design, indexing, query tuning) and integrating them with broader data workflows.

At Labelbox Engineering, we're building a comprehensive platform that powers the future of AI development. Our team combines deep technical expertise with a passion for innovation, working at the intersection of AI infrastructure, data systems, and user experience. We believe in pushing technical boundaries while maintaining high standards of code quality and system reliability.
