We're currently in stealth mode, moving fast and having fun. Backed by leading investors and amazing angel supporters, we’re building something big!

As the Staff Software Engineer with focus on back-end, you'll be a hands-on builder working on LLM powered applications. Pinkfish generates and deploys code on behalf of non-technical business users. You’ll be working on the system that makes that happen - from spinning up sandboxes to run untrusted code, to deployment pipelines, to monitoring and API design. 

What you’ll do:

  • Develop back-end services and models to manage code generation, cloud workflows, monitors, and customer workloads. 
  • Work with cloud functions using Lambda and Dynamodb
  • Develop distributed workflow systems 
  • Design and develop API 
  • Develop high-performance, reliable, testable, well documented and maintainable code
  • Consider how best to accelerate your and the team’s work with AI assisted tools and processes

What you need to succeed:

  • Demonstrated expertise building and scaling back-end applications
  • Experience with functions as a service (FaaS) architectures (serverless / Lambda)
  • NoSql database experience on Dynamo (preferred), Mongo, or similar 
  • 5+ years of strong experience building and maintaining high complexity web apps that have gone to production and seen the fire of real world usage 
  • Experience with Go programming language
  • Strong familiarity with AWS infrastructure services including Cloudfront, SAM, CodePipeline, API Gateway, etc. 
  • Excellent communication skills
  • Strong time management skills
  • Bonus: experience working with LLMs
  • Bonus: experience with Typescript and Python

What we're looking for:

  • Hands-on: you love to code
  • Attitude: no nonsense, get it done, have fun doing it. Delivering customer value to market as fast as possible is the prime directive
  • Enthusiasm for seeing how software development evolves in the era of AI

We look forward to meeting you.
