Senior Backend Engineer

Los Angeles, CA (Hybrid) | $180,000 - $225,000

⚙️ AI * Distributed Systems * High-Compute Pipelines

I'm partnering with a fast-growing AI technology company that's building large-scale backend systems powering intelligent, interactive digital experiences. They are preparing for major product launches and significant user growth, and are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join their core engineering team.

What You'll Do

  • Develop and scale APIs, microservices, and core backend systems
  • Work across TypeScript, Go, and/or Python in production environments
  • Contribute to multi-stage compute pipelines involving GPU workloads
  • Drive improvements in performance, throughput, and system reliability
  • Partner closely with ML, infrastructure, and product teams

What the Client Is Looking For

  • 3+ years of backend engineering experience (mid-senior)
  • Strong experience in TypeScript, Go, or Python
  • Solid understanding of networking fundamentals and concurrency
  • Experience building production APIs and service architectures
  • Bonus: exposure to GPU compute, ML inference, or high-scale environments

Why This Role Stands Out

  • High ownership within a lean, senior engineering team
  • Work at the cutting edge of AI, 3D tech, and large-scale distributed compute
  • Opportunity to shape core architecture during a major scale-up phase
  • Strong funding and ambitious long-term roadmap

If this sounds interesting, drop me a message. Even if you're just exploring or curious about what's next, I'd love to share more - this is genuinely one of the most exciting backend roles in the AI space right now.
