About the role
This role offers the chance to lead backend development and shape a next‑generation AI‑powered platform. You’ll build scalable Python systems, contribute across the stack, and collaborate directly with product and leadership to turn complex business needs into impactful technical solutions. Working in a fast‑paced, experiment‑driven environment, you’ll prototype, iterate, and take ownership of features that deliver real user value.
What you will do
* Lead backend development: design, implement, and maintain scalable backend systems in Python.
* Contribute across the stack: while backend is the main focus, be open to occasional frontend contributions (Vue.js, React, etc.) when needed.
* Collaborate with product & CEO: work closely with stakeholders to understand business needs and turn them into technical solutions.
* Prototype quickly & iterate: deliver functional, scrappy prototypes for fast learning and adjust based on feedback.
* Work with production feedback: build features that can be tested with real users, monitor performance, and iterate rapidly.
* Take ownership: make sound engineering decisions independently, ensuring alignment with product goals.
* Support a culture of speed and experimentation: balance technical quality with business value, optimizing for learning and time‑to‑market.

* Ability to think quickly, make strong engineering decisions, and adapt to changing requirements.
* Independence, ownership, and comfort working with minimal supervision.
* Must be based in Europe time zones (GMT+0 to GMT+5).
* Upper‑Intermediate English level.
Nice to haves
* Experience with Python web frameworks like Django or FastAPI.
* Experience in an early‑stage startup environment.
* Experience with building with LLMs or building agentic AI systems.
