We’re a remote, product-focused startup building AI- and algorithm-driven systems, and we’re looking for a strong Backend Django Engineer who loves clean data models, well-designed APIs, and clever algorithms.
You’ll own core backend features end-to-end: from modeling the data to implementing the logic and exposing it through fast, reliable services that ship to users quickly, working with a small distributed team across several countries.
### **What You’ll Do**
* Design and implement **backend services** **and APIs** using **Python** **+ Django** (and DRF or similar).
* Model and evolve our domain in the database with **clean, well-structured schema**s and relationships.
* Implement **algorithmic/AI logic **in the backend (e.g., scoring, ranking, routing, decision rules).
* Write **pragmatic, production-ready code** that’s easy to reason about and iterate on.
* Optimize for **correctness and performance**: efficient queries, smart indexing, and lean responses.
* Work with the team to turn product ideas into **concrete technical designs and endpoints.**
* Help shape how we build things: patterns, conventions, and how we ship and iterate as we grow.
### **What We’re Looking For**
* Strong experience building backend applications with **Python + Django**.
* Solid understanding of **relational data modeling** and **SQL** (we use PostgreSQL).
* Comfortable designing and building **RESTful APIs** (bonus if you’ve used DRF or similar frameworks).
* Experience working on **non-trivial business logic or algorithms** (e.g., decision flows, scoring rules, optimization logic).
* Good instincts around **performance**: understanding query behavior, avoiding obvious pitfalls, and using caching when it counts.
* A **startup mindset**: comfortable with ambiguity, moving fast, and iterating based on real-world feedback.
* Ability to work **independently in a remote environment** and communicate clearly.
### **Bonus Points For**
* Experience in **startups, side projects, or hackathons** where you’ve had to ship scrappy solutions fast.
* Background in **algorithms, optimization, or data-heavy systems.**
* Experience with **Google Cloud Platform (GCP)** in production.
* Familiarity with **Redis** (caching, queues) and **PostgreSQL** at some scale.
* Exposure to **containers and orchestration** (Docker, Kubernetes) and/or serverless on GCP.
This role is a **central piece of our backend roadmap**, and we’re aiming to fill it quickly once we meet the right person. If it resonates with you, **go ahead and apply now.**
