Job Description
Full-Stack Engineer | AI/ML Start-up | Competitive Salary + Equity
We're partnering with a fast-growing technology start-up that's building intelligent, adaptive systems powered by real-time machine learning. They're looking for a talented Full-Stack Engineer to join their team and help scale their platform.
About Our Client
Our client has developed a sophisticated learning engine that processes live user behavior data to optimize digital experiences. They serve a growing base of mid-market clients and are expanding their platform capabilities. The company is well-funded, technically strong, and positioned for significant growth.
Why This Role Stands Out
This isn't your typical full-stack position. You'll work at the intersection of engineering and applied ML, building systems that process real-time data and deliver measurable impact. You'll have genuine ownership, ship meaningful features, and grow alongside a talented team solving complex technical challenges.
The Opportunity
- Build and maintain APIs and data pipelines connecting real-time behavioral data to ML systems
- Ship features to production that directly impact customer outcomes
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams across engineering, product, and data
- Contribute to development infrastructure including CI/CD, testing frameworks, and code quality
- Debug production systems using modern observability tools (logs, metrics, traces)
- Increase your technical ownership and responsibilities as you develop expertise
What You'll Need
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or related field (or equivalent experience)
- 1–5 years building and supporting production web applications
- Strong backend or full-stack fundamentals: APIs, databases, asynchronous processing, testing
- Production experience with Python and SQL
- Familiarity with Git and CI/CD workflows
- Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills
- Interest in applied ML or LLM-based systems (production experience is a bonus, not required)
Nice to Have
- Exposure to LLM-driven systems (prompt management, caching, streaming)
- Experience with Docker; Kubernetes knowledge is a plus
- Passion for exploring new technologies and continuous learning
Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive base salary (commensurate with experience)
- Meaningful equity stake in a growing start-up
- Full health benefits: medical, dental, vision
- 401(k) with employer matching
- Remote work stipend
- Generous PTO
Next Steps
If you're interested in working on challenging technical problems involving real-time data, ML systems, and production-scale infrastructure, we'd love to connect. We can share more details about the company, team, and tech stack in a confidential conversation.
