scored

Jose has strong full-stack capabilities (TypeScript, Python, FastAPI, Next.js) and 12+ years shipping production systems with proven experience managing complex infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform). His recent work at Addie building real-time AI systems with WebRTC, LangGraph agents, and multi-channel delivery demonstrates hands-on expertise across the AI/ML lifecycle. However, he lacks explicit experience with ClickHouse, abuse detection systems, or trust & safety-specific work, which are central to this role.

Hook: Your founding engineer background building production AI systems end-to-end at scale, combined with full-stack mastery of TypeScript and Python across inference and infrastructure, makes you a strong fit for operationalizing safety systems across Runway's platform.

Missing: ClickHouse or similar OLAP databases, Abuse detection and content moderation systems, Trust & Safety domain experience, Prometheus/Grafana monitoring (likely applicable), Pre-training or model safety expertise

Runway | Trust & Safety Engineer |  London / NYC / SF / Seattle / Remote (US + Europe) | Full-time

We're hiring a Trust & Safety Engineer to join Runway's AI Safety and Responsibility team. Runway builds AI world models - general-purpose simulators for robotics, science, and storytelling — and this role exists to keep that safe as it reaches millions of users.

Stack: TypeScript API on ECS/Fargate, Python/PyTorch inference backend, Claude + Gemini for safety/moderation, ClickHouse for abuse signal detection, AWS + GCP, Terraform, Prometheus/Grafana.

It's a generalist role, hands-on across the full engineering lifecycle - from model pre-training through productionisation. We're looking for 3+ years production Python or TypeScript, comfort across the stack, and experience with data pipelines (ClickHouse a plus).
