About the Role
Join the platform engineering team at an AI product studio and help build the foundation for reliable, high-performing AI products. You will shape how data, streaming responses, and language model requests move through production systems, helping the platform stay dependable as usage grows.
What You'll Do
-
Integrate AI products with external data sources and multiple systems, handling rich context and real-time data flows.
-
Route streaming responses and language model requests across providers, using fallback and cost logic to maintain correctness under production load.
-
Monitor latency distributions, costs, and error rates, then act proactively to prevent system degradation.
-
Make architectural decisions that improve reliability and performance while keeping systems simple and maintainable.
-
Build and improve instrumentation and observability to identify missing signals and investigate complex production issues.
What We're Looking For
-
At least 3 years of production backend engineering experience, including 3 or more years working with TypeScript.
-
Experience owning production platform foundations and improving reliability and performance under real-world load.
-
Production experience with Docker and Kubernetes.
-
Strong system design skills, including the ability to reason about performance, latency, and cost trade-offs.
-
Solid knowledge of PostgreSQL, APIs, queues, and caching.
-
Experience with instrumentation, observability, and root-cause analysis; familiarity with streaming responses or language model request routing is valuable.
-
Comfort contributing to frontend code when needed.
