We don't need another server monkey.

We need a
backend assassin
who lives and breathes
APIs
— clean, scalable, fast-as-hell APIs that connect our AI to the world.

You'll be the one building the
beating heart of our platform
, exposing our AI power to customers, partners, and internal teams through beautifully designed, rock-solid APIs. No fluff. Just elegant endpoints and cold efficiency.

What You'll Actually Do

• Design, build, and ship public + internal APIs that are fast, stable, and well-documented
• Architect backend flows that keep our AI features running smooth and smart
• Work directly with product + frontend to make sure everything clicks and ships
• Handle auth, rate limits, versioning, and all the stuff juniors break
• Own your endpoints — monitor, test, optimize, and iterate fast

Your Stack (Or What You'll Dominate)

• Languages: / Python / Go — if it builds APIs, you're in
• API Design: RESTful standards, OpenAPI, GraphQL (bonus)
• Auth: OAuth, JWT, API keys — you keep things locked tight
• Testing: Postman, integration tests, load tests — no half-built stubs
• Infra: Docker, Postgres, Redis, and something to ship it )

Bonus If You.

• Have built developer-facing APIs and obsessed over DX
• Know how to design pagination, filtering, error handling — and make it sexy
• Can refactor spaghetti into clean, documented routes
• Have shipped API gateways, rate-limiting layers, or versioned endpoints before

This Isn't For You If You.

• Hate writing documentation (yes, real docs matter here)
• Just want to follow Jira tickets without asking why
• Get scared when an endpoint hits 10K+ requests/min
• Don't care what consumers do with your APIs

What You Get

• Full ownership of the interfaces between product, AI, and users
• Autonomy to architect and ship — no red tape, just results
• A front-row seat to building AI infrastructure that matters
• A team that understands: your APIs are the product

This isn't backend support.

This is
API engineering at the frontlines of AI
.
