the lottery is wage-weighted — each level is one more entry
$5,131 more — $165,131 — moves this role to Level II and 2 lottery entries. That figure is inside the range the employer already advertised.
Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $165,131 would place this position at wage Level II. That figure is within the posted range, and I'd like to target it. This role classifies under "Software Developers" for prevailing-wage purposes.

About the role
- ABOUT METER Networking is one of the most fundamental industries in all of technology.
- To make this possible, we don't just need great models; we need infrastructure that gives those models clean, versioned, low-latency access to the right data, across training, evaluation, and deployment.
- WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS Every Meter network deployed in the field is a rich data source for our Models team.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement the Models API: a unified interface for accessing training, evaluation, and deployment data across raw, transformed, and feature-engineered layers
- Build scalable pipelines for ingesting, transforming, and serving petabytes of data across Kafka, Postgres, and Clickhouse
- Create CI/CD workflows that evolve the API in lockstep with changes to the underlying data schema
- Collaborate with modelers to co-design training and evaluation pipelines that are reproducible, debuggable, and fast
- Own performance across key endpoints to meet real-time serving constraints
- Think deeply about schema design, versioning, and data quality
- Thrive in early-stage environments and like building from scratch
- But without careful infrastructure design, this data becomes fragmented, stale, or inconsistent.
- You'll own the core data interface that powers our model development, experimentation, evaluation, and real-time inference.
Compensation
- Annual memberships to One Medical, Headspace, and Wellhub
- We think about Meter's compensation package as a combination of salary, equity, benefits, and the experience of working with a talented team to make the biggest impact of your career.
- The estimated salary range for this role is $160,000 - $230,000 depending on experience, and it is eligible for equity in Meter.
Benefits
- Medical, dental & vision coverage for you and your dependents
- Flexible time off
- Commuter benefits
- Parental leave
Company info
- Networking is one of the most fundamental industries in all of technology.
- For the first time, Meter has unified the full networking stack; and now we are making it autonomous.
- We are building a neural network-driven system for reasoning in raw computer networks to solve any and all networking problems.
- As described on https://www.meter.aiMeter.ai http://Meter.ai, we're building models in a closed-loop system that takes (as input) real-time telemetry, logs, and events on the network to autonomously troubleshoot, improve performance, and resolve issues.
