  • Ship high-quality, reliable software quickly in a small, senior team
  • Improve performance, latency, and reliability across our LLM orchestration layer
  • Drive system design for new product lines built on top of the same backend platform
  • Mentor engineers and help define engineering standards and best practices

    • Qualifications

  • 7+ years of experience building and shipping production backend systems
  • Strong experience with Go or a similar typed backend language
  • Experience designing scalable systems (HTTP APIs, Postgres, Redis, Cloud Run or similar)
  • Ability to architect multi-tenant, enterprise-grade systems
  • Strong product instincts and experience shipping user-facing features end to end
  • Experience integrating external APIs or LLM provider services
  • Ability to work directly with customers to distill ambiguous workflows into clear requirements
