Join a well-funded AI startup with high ownership, real customers, AWS-heavy systems, and a strong engineering culture.
We’re working with a well-funded AI startup building a technically complex product used by external customers at scale. They have recently secured $10M in fresh funding, giving them strong runway and the ability to build deliberately.

- Ownership of a critical, high-impact production system
- Strong backend engineering background
- Polyglot experience, with willingness to work in Go
- Strong experience designing, building, and running systems on AWS
- Computer Science degree
- Evidence of coding beyond formal work (coding in high school, side projects, internships, genuine curiosity)
Why this role:
- Engineering-led AI startup with a high technical bar
- $10M in fresh funding and solid runway
- Real customers and real problems
- High ownership, low bureaucracy, meaningful technical influence
If you’re a senior software engineer who enjoys responsibility, depth, and building systems that are actually used, this is worth a confidential conversation.
