About the Role

We’re looking for a Backend Engineer who thrives in a fast-paced startup environment and has a passion for building customer-centric products. You’ll play a hands-on role in shaping our backend systems while directly contributing to product strategy and delivery.

This is not your typical backend-only role — you’ll work closely with customers, help shape features, and iterate fast. If you enjoy owning solutions end-to-end and collaborating across functions, we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

  • Engage directly with users to understand their pain points and feature requests
  • Design and plan backend solutions that address real-world problems
  • Build and maintain robust backend features using modern frameworks (e.g., Python, FastAPI, asyncio)
  • Integrate and optimize LLM orchestration pipelines
  • Set up scalable infrastructure to support backend operations
  • Implement observability tools like Amplitude and Sentry for performance and error tracking
  • Perform manual and automated end-to-end testing
  • Triage production issues — knowing when to ship a quick fix or dive deep for a long-term solution
  • Gather feedback post-release and iterate rapidly to improve the product

What We’re Looking For

  • 3–5 years of experience building performant, scalable backend systems
  • Strong in Python (with FastAPI, asyncio), OAuth2.0, Pub/Sub with Protobuf, and Google Firestore (NoSQL)
  • Deep understanding of backend development best practices: system design, async architecture, and performance optimization
  • Self-starter who takes initiative and delivers independently
  • Comfortable making fast, high-quality technical decisions in ambiguous or evolving contexts
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills

Nice to Have

  • Experience with LLM ecosystems and tools (e.g., LangGraph, Pinecone)
  • Prior experience working in early-stage startups

Perks & Benefits

Fully remote – work from anywhere
  • Flexible working hours
  • Unlimited paid time off (PTO)
  • Fast-moving environment with full ownership and real impact
