Hello everyone!
We're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to take a core role in building and scaling the backend infrastructure powering an applied AI platform for enterprise decision-making.
What professional skills are important for us?
— 5+ years of professional backend engineering experience, with meaningful time building systems at scale.
— Strong Python proficiency; confident picking up Go quickly (Go experience is a plus).
— Experience with distributed systems and microservices architecture.
— Solid experience with both SQL and NoSQL databases and data processing at scale.
— Startup or small-team background strongly preferred — real ownership, building new things, not maintaining legacy systems.
— Familiarity with graph databases is a major plus — core to our stack.
— Familiarity with RAG architectures and the broader GenAI landscape.
— Understanding of ML/AI concepts, particularly forecasting and NLP.
Tasks:
— Design, build, and scale backend services in Go and Python powering autonomous intelligence for enterprise clients.
— Architect data ingestion and processing pipelines handling millions of data points across internal and external sources.
— Build and maintain APIs serving the agentic AI platform, supporting real-time decision-making at enterprise scale.
— Own the graph database layer and production graph RAG system — a core technical differentiator.
— Collaborate with ML/AI engineers to integrate predictive and prescriptive models into production workflows.
— Design for fault tolerance, observability, and performance under high-throughput conditions.
— Contribute to architectural decisions that shape the long-term trajectory of the platform.
— Mentor engineers and establish backend best practices as the team scales.
