You'll collaborate closely with product, infrastructure, and design teams while mentoring fellow engineers and driving technical excellence. If you enjoy solving large-scale engineering challenges, building reliable AI systems, and influencing platform architecture, this role offers outstanding impact and ownership.
Accountabilities:
- Lead the technical architecture and evolution of core AI-powered application-building services, ensuring scalability, reliability, and long-term maintainability.
- Design, build, and optimize distributed backend systems supporting AI-driven application generation, content creation, deployment pipelines, and domain publishing.
- Develop and maintain high-performance services using Go, Node.js/NestJS, PostgreSQL, vector databases, Cloudflare technologies, and microservices architecture.
- Build and optimize Large Language Model (LLM) workflows, including embeddings, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), multi-agent orchestration, and AI reasoning pipelines.
- Improve platform observability through monitoring, structured logging, tracing, and performance optimization while maintaining high availability and operational excellence.
- Implement AI safety mechanisms, structured outputs, retrieval guardrails, verification layers, and governance practices to improve model reliability and reduce hallucinations.
- Mentor engineers through technical guidance, architecture reviews, and collaborative problem-solving while promoting engineering best practices.
- Partner with cross-functional teams to define technical roadmaps, deliver innovative AI capabilities, and support production operations through incident response and on-call participation.
Requirements
- 6+ years of backend software engineering experience, including designing and operating large-scale distributed systems.
- Strong expertise in Go (Golang) and experience developing backend services with Node.js and NestJS.
- Hands-on experience with Cloudflare Workers, Cloudflare KV, or comparable serverless and edge computing platforms.
- Deep understanding of event-driven architectures, asynchronous processing, distributed systems, and high-throughput data pipelines.
- Strong knowledge of PostgreSQL, NoSQL databases, query optimization, and transactional data modeling.
- Practical experience integrating Large Language Models (LLMs), vector databases, embeddings, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and generative AI frameworks.
- Familiarity with frontend architecture concepts, particularly Vue.js, along with an understanding of modern UI/UX principles.
- Experience implementing observability, monitoring, incident management, and production reliability practices.
- Knowledge of AI safety techniques including prompt engineering, structured generation, grounding, verification layers, and hallucination mitigation.
- Excellent communication, collaboration, leadership, and mentoring skills with the ability to influence technical direction in cross-functional environments.
Benefits
- Fully remote opportunity based in India.
- Work on cutting-edge AI, LLM, and application generation technologies at global scale.
- Opportunity to influence the architecture of a platform serving millions of businesses worldwide.
- High-impact, hands-on technical leadership role with significant ownership and autonomy.
- Collaborate with experienced global engineering, product, and design teams.
- Exposure to modern cloud-native technologies, distributed systems, and AI infrastructure.
- Continuous learning opportunities within a fast-growing, innovation-focused engineering culture.
- Inclusive, collaborative environment that values initiative, technical excellence, and continuous improvement.
