DeepSeek opens 150 backend engineer roles in major hiring push

TREE NEWS update: DeepSeek has opened 150 backend/server engineer positions, a hiring scale equivalent to one-third to one-half of its current team. Team lead Tianyi Cui cited “many new directions, systems and needs” as the reason. The expansion is driven by surging data, training tasks, agent environments and user requests, requiring a major upgrade and rewrite of existing backend systems.
