About Traversal
Traversal is the AI Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) for the enterprise—trusted by some of the largest companies to troubleshoot, remediate, and prevent complex production incidents. Our mission is to free engineers from firefighting and enable them to focus on creative, high-impact work. Our roots are rooted in AI research, and we are building the premier AI agent lab for the enterprise with a team that includes researchers from MIT, Harvard, and Berkeley, and engineers from leading companies. The Role
As a Full-Stack AI Engineer at Traversal, you will design and build core features powered by our AI site reliability engineer. You will work across the full product pipeline—from the user interface to the backend and infrastructure—to enable real-time incident detection, root cause analysis, and automated remediation in complex production environments. A strong product sense and comfort with AI and data processing infrastructure are important. Responsibilities
Product Impact:
Translate AI-powered insights into user-friendly features that empower engineers and reduce cognitive load. User Experience:
Innovate and drive UX/UI design, iterating rapidly based on user feedback to improve usability. API Development:
Design and implement high-performance APIs for seamless backend-frontend communication. Data Management:
Ensure efficient data storage, retrieval, and processing using technologies like PostgreSQL, Redis, or others. AI Integration:
Collaborate with AI engineers to integrate AI-driven insights and solutions, and own API authentication/authorization frameworks. Data Visualization:
Develop intuitive interfaces for presenting and interacting with time-series and topological data. Requirements
3+ years of software engineering experience with a strong full-stack focus. Ability to thrive in fast-paced startup environments with limited resources and shifting priorities. Strong experience with Python and web frameworks such as FastAPI. Hands-on experience with React, TypeScript, Next.js, and TailwindCSS for fast, responsive frontends. React experience is essential; other tools are supportable. Experience deploying applications on AWS, with ECS or Kubernetes, Postgres for data storage, and S3 for large-scale object storage. Note: You don\'t need to meet every requirement. Deep experience in a subset is welcome—please apply. Nice to Have
Familiarity with Python-based ecosystems. Experience with Agentic AI systems or observability domains. Background in large-scale, data-driven applications. Familiarity with AI or LLM-powered products. Compensation
Competitive compensation, startup equity, health insurance, and additional benefits. U.S. base salary range for this full-time, in-person role in New York is $150,000–$300,000, plus equity and benefits. Salary ranges depend on location, level, and role; individual compensation is determined by experience, skills, and job-related knowledge. Why You Should Join Us
We provide health insurance, a great tech setup, flexible time off, in-office snacks, competitive salary and equity packages, and thoughtful consideration for every hire on our small, high-impact team.
