Develop frontend and backend features for Akash Console, build and maintain public APIs and SDKs, implement automated tests and CI/CD, support customers integrating with Akash, participate in community technical discussions, and identify bug fixes and process improvements.
Want to build the future of the Internet? Akash Network is a decentralized cloud computing marketplace where anyone with compute — from data centers to individuals — can become a provider by offering their resources in a safe, open, and frictionless market. If you have compute, you're eligible.
As AI drives demand for compute to new heights, the Akash marketplace is growing on both sides — more providers bringing supply online, and more builders deploying the workloads that power the next generation of AI. It's a market projected to reach $2 trillion by 2030. Through tools like Akash Console, developers deploy to the marketplace in minutes, while AkashML delivers fully managed AI inference on decentralized GPUs — part of a growing suite of tools built to put AI within reach of every builder.
Akash is a remote-first, distributed, and growing team, offering unparalleled growth opportunities at the intersection of AI, cloud, and decentralized infrastructure.
