Oaktree Capital | Senior Software Engineer | Los Angeles, CA (HYBRID) / Hyderabad, India | 1 LA + 2 Hyderabad

I'm Julien — I lead Product Engineering at Oaktree. My background is tech, not finance: startups, Meta, data infrastructure companies.

I'm hands-on and building a flat, small team that operates like an engineering org, not a bank IT department. If you come from a tech background, this post is for you.

We're building the next-generation platform for Oaktree's credit business (private credit included) — one of the largest and most complex investment strategies at a firm managing $220B+ in assets.

This is a newly formed Product Engineering group, and we're modernizing everything: practices, architecture, tooling, culture.

In the past month alone we've stood up a new CI/CD system, evolved the architecture, and gone from release cycles measured in months to hours. We're shipping rapidly and the pace is accelerating.

The work: data-intensive applications across the full stack of a credit investment platform — ingestion, transformation, analytics, and the tools that put insights into the hands of investment professionals. No traditional PMs — you work directly with business stakeholders, own priorities, and ship.

This is a hands-on, code-every-day role.

What we're looking for: - 10+ years building and owning data-intensive systems in production

-Strong CS fundamentals (data structures, distributed systems, concurrency, performance)

- Deep expertise in data modeling, pipeline architecture, and systems that process/transform/serve large volumes of data

- Python + at least one statically typed/compiled language (C#/.NET, C++, Java, Scala, Go)

- Cloud-native experience (our environment is Azure, but what matters is you've operated at scale)

- Comfortable with ambiguity, direct stakeholder engagement, and owning outcomes end-to-end

- Genuine interest in applying generative AI practically across engineering and product workflows

A note on title: the internal title is Vice President, which is standard in finance.

In substance this is a Senior/Staff Engineer IC role.

Locations: 1 role in Los Angeles (hybrid Tue-Thu, DTLA office) a 2 roles in Hyderabad, India.

Interview process: 0. recruiter screen

1. Behavioral + coding (30 min each, can be split or combined) 2. Onsite: system design take-home + panel, stakeholder meeting, hiring manager

Anvil | Founding Computational Geometry Engineer + Full-Stack Engineer | Greater Boston | HYBRID | Full-time | $140k-$180k + 0.5-2.5% equity

We're a seed stage (VC backend) company building a vertically integrated design and manufacturing platform for precision mechanical parts. We are developing our own CAD/CAM software running on top of our own manufacturing facility. The team has previously developed CAD kernels, design software, and autonomous robotic manipulators, and comes from Amazon Robotics, Siemens, nTop, and Vicarious Surgical.

Most design and manufacturing software companies treat the factory as a black box and optimize geometry in isolation. Our bet is that the only way to really bring software and ML into design and manufacturing is to own the full process ourselves. The platform you'd help build includes: customer-facing design software, the ML engine that turns CAD files into machine instructions (G-code), the simulation layer, and the shop floor operations themselves.

We are looking for someone independently driven who wants to operate like a founder. You'd own architecture, help shape the company's vision, and build a product from the ground up. If you've worked on cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, CAD/CAM software dev, geometry kernels, robotic perception, motion control, or spent time on a shop floor, we'd like to talk. We are open to sponsoring visas for the right candidate.

Roles:

Founding Computational Geometry Engineer: Hybrid B-rep + SDF kernel work. STEP AP242 ingestion, B-rep surgery, feature recognition, and the geometry layer underneath our DFM and CAM pipelines. If you've worked on Parasolid, OCCT, nTop, or shipped anything that touches BRep diff, parametric replay, or differentiable geometry, we want to talk. C++ and Python.

Founding Full-Stack Engineer: Someone who can take ownership of the reliability, automation, and evolution of our core systems that tie into our CAD/CAM software, internal shop-floor systems. You’ll work across the stack, with a strong emphasis on backend, infrastructure, and system-level engineering, to strengthen the foundations that everything else runs on. This role is for someone who enjoys digging into complex systems, building the architecture and tooling to keep them running reliably (including the frontend).

Found | REMOTE CANADA | Staff Platform/SRE | found.com

Company: Series C fintech. We're building the next generation of financial tooling to help business owners succeed. Our solution blends banking, bookkeeping, taxes and payments into an all-in-one solution to help save our users time, stress and money -- so they can focus on what matters to them; running their business.

Role: Small (~20 eng) team, 1-person platform function. You’d operate with immediate ownership across reliability, incident response, security/compliance (bug bounty, PCI/SOC2), CI/CD, observability (Datadog), and core infra on GCP (Mysql/Spanner/Redis/K8s/ etc). Also supporting launches end-to-end (from mobile app down to networking layer), and finding opportunities to improve developer velocity. It's a pretty broad role, but with that comes a lot of room to grow.

Startup working on AI Healthcare solutions (plus some random experiments) | REMOTE(US, Pacific time zone) | Full time and project based

Full time engineering role (Remote, US person required; Pacific time zone)

Stack: C#, Python, Gemini API on Windows, lots of legacy systems/constrained enterprise environment. Health systems experience preferred. Understanding of cost effective, reliable LLM API use. Should be flexible: do PM-like work with less-technical client domain experts, solve problems end to end, willing to data cleaning and detailed work for client goals and security/compliance gruntwork, even when it's not technically elegant. Self motivated, willing to understand legacy and undocumented codebases, but also willing to take instructions.

Ideal candidate has real (pre-Claude Code) experience, but is ready to do fast iteration in post-AI world, while actually reading what the AI does. We're ok if your stack is different, if you're both technically mature and up to date on modern fast-turnaround AI-based development. Probably in the 5+ year experience range.

REMOTE anywhere, project based or initially part time: startup generalist hacker, maintain systems and websites, code one-off prototypes. Should be good enough to code without an AI in a few languages, but an effective AI harness coder. Can do a small but complete app/project end to end, including basic marketing. 2+ year exp or a new grad with a good portfolio or major project; happy to consider more experienced person. Good role for someone who's working on their own startup to pick up some side money and experience. Projects could be anything from game-like apps/novelties to voice tools to utility apps.

REMOTE anywhere, project based or initially part time: help on some more experimental mathy projects. M.S./Ph.D. in statistics, physics or related, with pragmatic programming experience. Possible projects: gaussian process modeling; designing evaluation metrics; compression; Bayesian tools for radiology imaging. May be good for a grad student part time. This is the fun stuff the founder would rather be doing himself if he had the time.

REMOTE (US person) Half-time remote admin/chief of staff type: deal with bookkeeping, compliance, communications, social media, phone calls - save us time on everything non-technical. Should be effective AI user; should have some relevant experience supporting tech business.

SkySafe (https://skysafe.io) | Wireless Engineer (SDR) | San Diego, CA | REMOTE or HYBRID

At SkySafe we build drone detection and tracking at scale.

I am looking for a Wireless Communications Engineer with SDR expertise to join my team; I'm the hiring manager.

What I'm looking for:

* Background in wireless communications / signal processing theory and math.

* Experience building software-based wireless modems.
