Job Summary
At were redefining email marketing for e-commerce brands by automating a lot of the day-to-day manual grunt work that goes into email marketing from segmentation to creating campaigns without designers to personalization.
While increasing LTV and driving measurable growth we help brands stay focused on what matters most - the customer.
Why join us

Recent wins

Wed like to work on
Deepening our AI infrastructure: customer-level memory agentic workflows smarter model routing and self-optimizing conversation engines
Scaling our data pipelines to handle the next order of magnitude of events without compromising latency or cost
Expanding self-service so any e-commerce brand can onboard and get value from without white-glove handoff
Pushing our image and content generation capabilities so brands can ship a wider range of emails at lower cost
Driving proactivity across the platform from recommending the right customer lists and campaigns to expanding beyond email into multi-channel
Role Responsibilities
Own features end-to-end from architecture and data modeling through implementation rollout and iteration in production
Work across the full backend surface: AI features core platform architecture and data pipelines that move millions of events daily
Use AI coding tools aggressively (unlimited tokens) to ship faster while taking full responsibility for the quality correctness and maintainability of every line that lands in main
Design and build AI-native systems: multi-agent workflows model routing evals and real-time feedback loops
Make architectural calls that hold up under growth and revisit them when they dont
Pair closely with product AI and data on the highest-leverage work not just the assigned tickets
Raise the engineering bar: code review design review and pushing back when something isnt ready for production
What were looking for (ideally)
4 years of backend engineering experience with a track record of owning systems end-to-end in production
Strong engineering taste you know the difference between shipped code and AI-generated slop and you ship the former. Lines of code are not a flex; durable well-reasoned systems are.
AI-native mindset you instinctively reach for AI tools to move faster but you treat their output as a draft not a deliverable. You can oversee AI-generated work and catch what it gets wrong.
Experience scaling production systems in fast-moving SaaS messaging or e-commerce environments
Comfortable with TypeScript (NestJS) and AWS-based infrastructure or able to ramp quickly
Real interest in LLMOps AI application infrastructure and the tooling around evals prompt management and agentic systems
Pragmatic and adaptable you can hold speed and quality at the same time and dont see them as a tradeoff
Founder mentality you build systems you dont wait to inherit them
