What We're Looking For We care more about practical experience and ownership. If you love solving hard problems at scale and take pride in your work, we'd love to talk. - 3+ years of experience building distributed backend systems at scale. - Strong in Java or Python, with a deep understanding of backend architecture, performance, and reliability. Comfortable building and consuming REST or gRPC APIs. - Solid database fundamentals - experience with MySQL or PostgreSQL, including query tuning, indexing, caching, and schema design. Comfortable with NoSQL stores like DynamoDB, Cassandra, or ClickHouse for high-throughput, low-latency applications. - Experience developing AI-driven systems using vector databases, embedding pipelines, and integrating LLMs or other AI models into production systems - Proven experience with AWS infrastructureand are comfortable in managing applications on any public cloud infrastructure. Familiarity with CI/CD and infrastructure automation tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and Terraform. - You use LLM-based tools (Cursor, Claude, etc.) to accelerate development, refactor code, and debug with understanding. You'll treat AI as an assistant, not a substitute - you'll remain in control of the code you ship. - Strong communicator who values clear documentation, collaborative code reviews, and team transparency. You're resourceful, self-directed, and outcome-focused - you thrive in fast-paced environments and don't shy away from complex codebases. What We Offer - Opportunity to work in a fast-paced, dynamic startup environment. - Be a part of the founding team (founding engineer) and work with industry veterans in SaaS - Flexible work arrangements. - Professional growth and development opportunities. - Work on cutting-edge technologies with a talented team.
