We’re a remote, product-focused startup building AI- and algorithm-driven systems, and we’re looking for a strong Backend Django Engineer who loves clean data models, well-designed APIs, and clever algorithms. You’ll own core backend features end-to-end: from modeling the data to implementing the logic and exposing it through fast, reliable services that ship to users quickly, working with a small distributed team across several countries.
$100 bonus: After successfully completing the assessment.
What You’ll Do
- Design and implement backend services and APIs using Python + Django (and DRF or similar).
- Model and evolve our domain in the database with clean, well-structured schemas and relationships.
- Implement algorithmic/AI logic in the backend (e.g., scoring, ranking, routing, decision rules).
- Write pragmatic, production-ready code that’s easy to reason about and iterate on.
- Optimize for correctness and performance: efficient queries, smart indexing, and lean responses.
- Work with the team to turn product ideas into concrete technical designs and endpoints.
- Help shape how we build things: patterns, conventions, and how we ship and iterate as we grow.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong experience building backend applications with Python + Django.
- Solid understanding of relational data modeling and SQL (we use PostgreSQL).
- Comfortable designing and building RESTful APIs (bonus if you’ve used DRF or similar frameworks).
- Experience working on non-trivial business logic or algorithms (e.g., decision flows, scoring rules, optimization logic).
- Good instincts around performance: understanding query behavior, avoiding obvious pitfalls, and using caching when it counts.
- A startup mindset: comfortable with ambiguity, moving fast, and iterating based on real-world feedback.
- Ability to work independently in a remote environment and communicate clearly.
Bonus Points For
- Experience in startups, side projects, or hackathons where you’ve had to ship scrappy
