Requirements:

  • 7+ years of software engineering experience with at least 2 years in a technical leadership role
  • Expert-level knowledge of Node.js, TypeScript, and modern backend frameworks (Fastify, Express)
  • Strong background in system design, architectural patterns, and making technology trade-offs
  • Deep understanding of monorepo architectures and tooling (Turborepo, Nx)
  • Experience with event-driven architectures and message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ, BullMQ)
  • Production experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes)
  • Strong cloud platform expertise (AWS and/or GCP) including infrastructure design and optimization
  • Hands-on experience with AI/ML frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, MCP, etc.)
  • Expertise in database design and optimization (SQL/NoSQL) with ORMs like Drizzle or Prisma
  • Proficiency with API design, testing frameworks, and load testing tools (Postman, k6, JMeter)


Nice to have:

  • Experience building and scaling AI-powered platforms or products
  • Knowledge of observability and monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, OpenTelemetry, DataDog)
  • Infrastructure as Code experience (Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation)
  • Background in Python and FastAPI for polyglot development
  • Familiarity with modern frontend frameworks and state management (React, Redux, Next.js, Vue)
  • Experience working in fast-paced startup environments


Benefits:

  • Competitive salary and equity options
  • Flexible work environment (remote/hybrid)
  • Work with cutting-edge AI technologies and modern engineering practices
  • High growth potential as the company and team scale
