Backend Engineer, Thinking Systems
About the role
About the Team
We’re a YC-backed, profitable startup that’s building agents to automate the most manual, critical function of managing multi-billion dollar investments - fundraising. Every day, Tier 1 funds rely on our product to close new and update existing investors.
We build with the newest tools. Every role within our tight-knit, all-engineers team has incredible autonomy to go out and delight our users. If you want to go all in on coding agents, build knowledge graphs, or explore novel async ways of ingesting data at scale, you can do that here - everything we do is innovative at its core.
This is just the start, we have much bigger plays planned in partnership with our customers to change how trillions of dollars of private capital is allocated in global financial markets.
About the Role
Our users rely on reasoning systems enabled in large part by a metadata-enriched database and scalable backend, to trust the decisions AI makes to automate real work. Of the 3 pillars we prioritize in our technical org for realizing agents (reasoning, database, and interface), you will work directly with the CTO to own the database. That means building autonomous systems to enrich data, serve it securely and efficiently, while collaborating with the ICs responsible for reasoning and interface.
This is fundamentally a high-trust environment where we function as a cohesive innovation unit to build at the bleeding edge of what’s possible with LLMs. Your fit must be technical as much as cultural.
In this role, you will:
- Architect backend services for scalable and reliable pre-processing of documents to be consumed by reasoning systems for more stochastic outputs.
- Own the design and delivery of novel data models to enable advanced reasoning.
