Full Stack Engineer (Serverless)

fal is building the fastest and most scalable infrastructure for AI inference. Fal Serverless powers 1,300+ endpoints on the fal Marketplace and handles tens of millions of requests per day across production workloads.

Enterprises use fal Serverless to deploy, operate, and scale custom AI models without managing infrastructure themselves. Autoscaling, observability, and operational complexity are handled end-to-end by fal’s platform and UI.

Serverless began as internal infrastructure built to support fal’s own scale and was released publicly to enterprise customers in early 2025. It is now a core, revenue-driving product with rapidly growing adoption.

fal is one of the fastest-growing AI startups, reaching Series D at a $4.5B valuation with a lean team of ~70 employees. You’ll be joining early, with meaningful ownership and direct impact on a foundational product.

As a Full Stack Engineer on Serverless, you will build the core product across frontend and backend that powers fal’s Serverless platform. This is a deeply product-focused role. You will work side-by-side with Product and Infrastructure to design and ship reusable, scalable systems that enterprise customers rely on in production every day.

You will be a foundational technical owner of fal Serverless as it scales to thousands of enterprise customers, with real responsibility, autonomy, and impact. This is a chance to help build a new product vertical from the ground up inside a company that is already scaling at rocket-ship speed.
