Design and build core backend systems: We ingest high volumes of social data in real time from platforms like Instagram, TikTok, X, and LinkedIn, run AI agents on that content, and surface insights through analytics dashboards. You'll work across this pipeline — building resilient integrations with third-party APIs, optimizing AI workload costs, and scaling the infrastructure underneath it all.
Drive operational excellence: improve reliability, build on-call culture, and mature our systems as we onboard more customers and process 10-100x more data.
Shape technical direction: write architecture docs, make tool and infrastructure choices, and mentor other engineers. There are no silos here, and engineers have the freedom to work across our entire product and infrastructure stack.
