About Scale AI Scale AI is the data foundation for AI, helping organizations build and deploy reliable production AI applications. We partner with leading enterprises and government organizations to accelerate their AI initiatives through our data annotation platform, generative AI solutions, and enterprise AI capabilities. Role Overview As a Staff Frontier Agents Engineer on our Enterprise team, you'll be the technical bridge between Scale AI's cutting-edge AI capabilities and our most strategic customers.

You'll work with enterprise clients to understand their unique challenges, architect custom AI solutions, and ensure successful deployment and adoption of AI systems in production environments. This is a hands-on technical role that combines deep engineering expertise with customer-facing problem solving. You'll work directly with customer engineering teams to integrate AI into their critical workflows.

Key Responsibilities

Customer Integration Deployment Partner directly with enterprise customers to understand their technical infrastructure, data pipelines, and business
