About the role

  • You'll work directly with the founding team on the core platform: the scheduling engine, our autonomous AI agents, and the integrations that connect candidate.fyi http://candidate.fyi to enterprise ATS infrastructure.

Responsibilities

  • Build and scale backend services in Python and Django powering our scheduling, coordination, and AI agent infrastructure

  • Comfort with REST API design and integration patterns
  • We're building toward fully autonomous recruiting agents, and you'll be central to that

Requirements

  • 2-3 years of hands-on Python and Django experience - this is non-negotiable

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with TypeScript and React - you don't need to live on the frontend, but you shouldn't be afraid of it
  • Proficiency with AI coding tools
  • we're a Cursor shop and expect you to work the same way

Benefits

  • Remote-friendly with full health benefits
