Principal + Staff Software Engineers

Unstructured is defining the standard for enterprise data transformation in the age of LLMs and generative AI. In just two years, we've raised over $65M from world-class investors, including Menlo Ventures, Bain Capital, Databricks, NVIDIA, Microsoft, and IBM.

Our open-source toolkit has been downloaded 97M+ times and is used by 90% of the Fortune 1000. We power production AI workflows across commercial and federal sectors — transforming PDFs, HTML, Word docs, images, emails, and more into AI-ready data pipelines that scale.

We're not just building tools; we're building the backbone of generative AI and the infrastructure that unlocks intelligence across industries.

About the Role

Unstructured is looking for Staff and Principal Software Engineers to define the architectural foundation for how enterprises process and transform unstructured data for large-language-model (LLM) applications.

This is a high-impact, hands-on role for someone who thrives in deep systems work—someone who could write the book on Kubernetes, lives and breathes Python, and understands Postgres at the index and transaction-log
