A fast moving, curious and resourceful team

The best thing about working for Lambda is the people. There is a focus on the human element of engineering. We are human beings who happen to be engineers, not engineers who happen to be human. Having said that, the technical expertise at Lambda is deep. They're subject matter experts on a wide range of technologies. There is a culture of knowledge sharing and team building at Lambda.

Another great thing about working for Lambda is the technology stack. Deep learning is the place to be right now and Lambda is at the center of it. Everyone needs access to GPUs for training and inference and we provide that access in Lambda Cloud and our hardware offerings. Lambda Cloud is an amazing product to be working on. From distributed systems, networking, compute, storage and deep learning, there is no end to the cool technologies we get to work with.

I have been at Lambda for a year and a half. It has been a wild ride. I have learned a lot. But most of all I have made great friends.

David Ames

Staff Software Engineer, Lambda
One of my favorite things about working for Lambda is the people I get to work with everyday. Even though we live miles apart, we all share the common goal to grow the business and provide state of the art solutions to our customers. The people we get to work with are diverse in many ways such as race, gender, and career backgrounds!

Working at Lambda with the Supply Chain is a dream. We are able to measure our impact and provide visibility to stakeholders. We give confidence to customers that they are receiving the latest, greatest, and reliable technology for their projects. The Supply Chain team is the “heart” of the business and our main focus is to support our customers to provide suitable and sustainable solutions for the AI/ML universe!

Overall, I'm so grateful to be apart of one of the fastest growing teams with a company that truly supports me professionally, and personally! Lambda’s willingness to provide me the flexibility to be a mom and an employee at the same time means more to me than I could ever express. It's a dream come true!

Working at Lambda for the last two years has been such an amazing experience! The support that I get from each individual I work with is amazing along with the flexibility to have a healthy and stable work life balance. Everyone is always understanding and supportive!

Being Lambda's Executive Assistant and working closely with the management team has been very exciting! I have been able to see the company grow first hand from 33 people to where we are now. It has also been amazing being able to mold my position and be supported in growth within my position from everyone.

Overall, I feel very lucky to be apart of Lambda and the innovative company we are. It is a fantastic place to work and I can't wait to see what more we are going to accomplish together!

Celine Liebrecht

Executive Assistant, Lambda
As Lambda's Sales Enablement Manager, I get to work with some of the brightest minds in tech and see firsthand how our innovations are changing the world. Under Lambda's VP of Revenue's leadership, the sales team has grown tremendously while maintaining a culture of transparency, trust and empowerment. I help onboard and train new team members, refine critical processes, and make sure our partners have the support they need to succeed.

At Lambda, I have the freedom to take on more responsibility and implement high-impact changes. My colleagues are intellectually curious, kind, and relentlessly dedicated to our mission of advancing AI. I feel deeply fulfilled enabling a team that is fundamentally transforming the future.

Frequently asked questions

Where is Lambda located?

We have two office locations: one in San Jose and the other in San Francisco, not far from the Salesforce Tower.

What is Lambda’s stance on hybrid and remote work?

We are hybrid-first, remote-second. We expect folks who live close to one of our locations to work, drink coffee, and exchange high-fives in the office four days a week.

What is Lambda's culture like?

Low-ego, collaborative, and fired up about what we do. We check in at least once a week—sharing wins, swapping news, and giving each other props. AI moves fast, and we’re here for it. Yeah, we’re methodically building the backbone of AI architecture for our customers, but we’re also a crew of curious nerds who love to learn, tinker, and stay ahead of the curve.

What is the work-life balance like at Lambda?

We believe that the more life we live, the more we bring to the table. Burnout helps no one. Most of us wrap up around 5 or 6 PM to have dinner with friends or family. Some prefer to grind away after dark, bathed in the hacker-glow of a mechanical keyboard. Either way, it’s not about clocking hours—it’s about doing great work. As a startup, there are times when big launches, shipments, or critical tasks need extra attention. When that happens, some folks choose to put in the time—but that’s exactly what it is: a choice, not an expectation.

Are there any company events & in-person meetups?

Yep! In addition to happy hours and mingling in the office, we host company-wide gatherings and team off-sites throughout the year. Lambda also hits up about half a dozen industry conferences annually—a chance to work, hang out, and, most importantly, eat tacos together in real life.

Is Lambda profitable and financially sustainable?

Lambda has been profitable for years. Since 2018, our top-line revenue has nearly 10xed, and we have raised over $860M from great investors.

Do you hire outside of the US?

We hire predominantly in the US and very rarely have international openings.

What about benefits, time off, and other perks?

We’ve got the essentials—healthcare, dental, vision, 401k matching, five sick days, and 12 paid holidays per year. PTO is flexible—take the time you need to recharge or go on an adventure. If you need it, we offer paid parental leave, personal medical leave, and caregiver leave. And then there’s Lambda Break. We shut down (except for mission-critical ops) for the last week of the year so everyone can relax and spend time with family and friends. It’s pretty awesome.

What is the interview process like?

It varies a bit by department, but here’s the general flow: a 30-minute call with a recruiter, a chat with the hiring manager, and then a series of interviews with team members, experts, and leaders. There’s usually a small project or skills assessment to see how you think and work. Expect to spend 4-5 hours total, and don’t worry—we’ll make sure you have plenty of time to ask questions about Lambda.
