The posting, as Groq wrote it

About Groq
Inference is the engine that powers AI, and Groq was built from the silicon up to deliver the world's fastest inference at scale. We pioneered the LPU—the first processor designed specifically for AI inference—and are transforming that innovation into a global cloud platform powering production AI workloads.

With the capital, infrastructure, and team to execute, we're uniquely positioned to define the next era of AI infrastructure. The opportunity is massive, and it's still wide open. Now let's go build it!

Mission

Groq is seeking a hands-on Senior Software Engineer, Business Systems & Integrations to architect, build, and scale the core software engines connecting our physical AI infrastructure operations with enterprise financial and business platforms.

Unlike traditional business systems or IT administration roles focused on SaaS platform configuration and permissions management, this is a pure software engineering position. You will spend 60% to 70% of your time writing production code, establishing deep system architectures, building production APIs, and implementing automated data pipelines from the ground up.

Your primary focus will be bridging physical infrastructure life cycles (tracking servers, racks, network inventory, and spare parts across procurement, assembly, data center deployment, and retirement) with Groq's core financial ledger in NetSuite. You will take complete architectural ownership of complex integration services, custom scanning and asset applications, and event-driven workflows that eliminate manual operational friction.

Location: This role will be based in one of our three hiring hubs: the Dallas, San Francisco, or New York City area . The person hired for this role must be based in one of these three areas. You’ll have the flexibility to work remotely while we establish our local Groq office, with the expectation that this role will transition to onsite once the office opens.
