About Anaconda Be at the center of AI Anaconda is built to advance AI with open source at scale, giving builders and organizations the confidence to increase productivity, and save time, spend and risk associated with open source. 95% of the Fortune 500 including Panasonic, AmTrust, Booz Allen Hamilton and over 50 million users rely on the value The Anaconda AI Platform delivers through a centralized approach to sourcing, securing, building, and deploying AI. With 21 billion downloads and growing, Anaconda has established itself as the gold standard for Python, data science, and AI and the enterprise-ready solution of choice for AI innovation. Anaconda is backed by world-class investors including Insight Partners. Learn more at . Summary: Anaconda has always built and shipped conda packages. Now we're expanding into wheels, the format used across the wider Python ecosystem, so builders who would otherwise go to PyPI or conda-forge for a package can find it with us instead. That shift has already taken our catalog from around 2,000 packages to more than 6,000, and wheels. You'll join a small, focused team building the toolchain that compiles these packages from source. As our Staff Software Engineer, you'll help carry that work from prototype to production: shaping technical strategy, building out the tooling, and working closely with our pure Python wheels and distribution teams as the effort scales. What You'll Do: Build and evolve the toolchain that compiles complex packages like NumPy, SciPy and PyTorch from source, moving the effort from research into production. Create, review, and evolve conda recipes, build tooling, and release processes that keep compiled packages reliable at scale. Partner with our pure Python wheels and distribution teams so both efforts stay in step as automation and infrastructure needs grow. Mentor engineers on architecture, debugging, and packaging practices, sharing context as you go rather than hoarding it. Lead postmortems, capacity
