About the role

  • Our AI work spans task-specific ML models, large language model (LLM) integration, and agentic systems that orchestrate multiple tools to produce end-user results.
  • We run a Python-based backend (FastAPI + Gunicorn + Nginx) with heavy background job processing using Celery.

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and deploy production-grade AI-powered backend systems.
  • Integrate and optimize vector databases for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines and other traditional ML queries.
  • Collaborate with product, backend, and frontend engineers to deliver cohesive solutions.
  • Strong grasp of software design patterns

Requirements

  • Strong understanding of backend performance, parallel processing in background jobs and multi-threading
  • Proficiency in performance tuning specially for heavy AI models
  • Experience with background processing with Celery or other major libraries
  • Experience with monitoring APIs and background processing
  • Experience with ensuring visibility and error reporting.

Nice to have

  • Independent problem solver - you can debug without constant supervision.
  • Production mindset - you understand that reliability, scalability, and maintainability matter as much as accuracy.
  • System thinker - you see backend, AI, and UI as a connected whole.
  • Direct impact on the company's competitive edge.
  • Small, fast-moving team with high autonomy.
  • Work on practical, real-world AI applications - not just research.
  • Opportunity to shape our AI architecture and best practices from the ground up.
  • experience with Docker, understanding of CI/D, deployment automation and Kubernetes

Benefits

  • Applied machine learning experience - training, evaluating, and maintaining small task-specific models.
