About Moonvalley
Moonvalley's mission is to solve Visual Intelligence in the age of generative AI. We are building technology that can tell stories, scale creativity, and understand both the physics and semantics of the world. With Marey, our first high-definition foundation model trained exclusively on licensed data, we are powering the next era of cinematic, commercial, and enterprise-grade creation.
Our team is an unprecedented convergence of talent across industries. Our elite AI scientists from Deepmind, Google, Microsoft, Meta & Snap, have decades of collective experience in machine learning and computational creativity. We have also established the first AI-enabled movie studio in Hollywood, filled with accomplished filmmakers and visionary creative talent. We work with the top producers, actors, and filmmakers in Hollywood as well as creative-driven global brands. So far we've raised over $100M+ from world-class investors including General Catalyst, Bessemer, Khosla Ventures & YCombinator – and we're just getting started.

Strong generalist with experience managing large-scale, high-performance infrastructure
Skilled in designing scalable systems for compute, data, and developer tooling
Comfortable in high-urgency environments with the ability to prioritize for impact
Familiar with infrastructure stacks for AI model training and experimentation
Experienced with Kubernetes, Terraform/Pulumi, Spark/Ray, and observability tools
Pragmatic problem-solver who favors automation and simplicity over complexity
Open to using and contributing to open-source tooling when appropriate
Bonus: experience as a Cluster Engineer, Data Engineer, or Developer Advocate in AI/ML environments
What we offer (compensation & benefits)
Competitive salary and equity
Private health coverage
Pension contribution (UK, Canada, US)

Fully-distributed, async-first culture
Hardware setup of your choice
Stipends for phone, internet, and meals
In our team, we approach our work with the dedication similar to Olympic athletes. Anticipate occasional late nights and weekends dedicated to our mission. We understand this level of commitment may not suit everyone, and we openly communicate this expectation.
If you're motivated by deeply technical problems, a seemingly never-ending uphill battle and the opportunity to build (and own) a generational technology company, we can give you what you're looking for.
All business roles at Moonvalley are hybrid positions by default, with some fully remote depending on the job scope. We meet a few times every year, usually in London, UK or North America (LA, Toronto) as a company.
If you're excited about the opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI technology and help shape the future of media and entertainment, we encourage you to apply. We look forward to hearing from you!
