fal is the generative media ecosystem powering the next generation of AI products. We build the infrastructure, tools, and model access that teams need to move from idea to production, and do it at scale without compromise. For developers and enterprises, fal is the foundation that makes generative media not just possible, but practical: a unified platform where high-performance inference, orchestration, and observability come together to unlock new categories of AI-native products.
As generative media reshapes industries across a market projected to grow by hundreds of billions over the next decade, fal is becoming the ecosystem that ambitious teams build on.
As a Senior Data Engineer at fal, you will build the data infrastructure that turns our internal systems and external vendor relationships into a clear picture of cost, margin, and performance. Your work spans both edges of our stack - the production infrastructure that runs every model invocation, and the partner APIs and compute vendors whose costs we need to reason about in near real-time.
This role sits at the intersection of software engineering and data engineering. You'll partner closely with Infra to safely instrument core systems, design a low-latency analytical write path, and stand up the ingestion pipelines that unlock cost, margin, and infrastructure analytics for the entire company. You will be a force multiplier - freeing up product engineers and infra to focus on what they do best while giving the data team the foundations it needs to move fast.
