Collaborate with ML engineers and product teams to design and deliver AI-powered functionality.
Build efficient APIs to serve recommendations and other results at low latency.
Work with vector databases (Qdrant, Pinecone, Elasticsearch, etc.) to implement fast similarity search and embeddings.
Deploy, monitor, and scale services in cloud environments (AWS preferred).
Contribute to system design, architecture decisions, and performance optimization.
Develop CI/CD pipelines and ensure high code quality and test coverage.
Requirements:
You must have 8+ years of Python backend development experience.
Strong knowledge of backend architecture and distributed systems is required.
Proven experience building and deploying production-ready APIs is essential.
Experience integrating ML models or AI services into backend systems is necessary.
Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS preferred) and DevOps practices (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform) is required.
You should have database experience with SQL (PostgreSQL/MySQL) and NoSQL (Redis/ElasticSearch).
Excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a remote team are essential.
Benefits:
You will have the opportunity to work on greenfield AI/ML-powered features for a global audience.
There is an opportunity to influence architecture and technology choices.
You will be part of a collaborative and fast-moving team with ambitious product goals.
A competitive salary is offered along with fully remote work flexibility.
