Backend Engineer

Big companies are like giant boats with a thousand rowers — you can’t feel your pull move the boat. Shoppin isn’t that boat. We’re a 10-person crew rowing like our lives depend on it — each one the best at what they do, each stroke moving the product forward every single day. If you believe small, fast, obsessive teams can beat giants, read on.

What You’ll Do:

Build and optimize Shoppin’s vibe, image, and inspiration search, powering both text and image-based discovery.

Work on vector embeddings, retrieval pipelines, and semantic search using ElasticSearch, Redis caching, and LLM APIs.

Design and ship high-performance Python microservices that move fast and scale beautifully.

Experiment with prompt engineering, ranking models, and multimodal retrieval.

• Collaborate directly with the founder — moving from idea → prototype → production in hours, not weeks.

 Tech You’ll Work With

• Languages & Frameworks: Python, FastAPI
• Search & Infra: ElasticSearch, Redis, PostgreSQL
• AI Stack: Vector Databases, Embeddings, LLM APIs (OpenAI, Gemini, etc.)
• Dev Tools: Cursor, Docker, Kubernetes
• Infra: AWS / GCP

 What We’re Looking For

• Strong mathematical intuition — you understand cosine similarity, normalization, and ranking functions.
• Experience or deep curiosity in text + image search.
• Comfort with Python, data structures, and system design.
• Speed-obsessed — you optimize for velocity, not bureaucracy.
• Hungry to go all-in, ship hard things, and make a dent.

Bonus Points

• Experience with LLM prompting or orchestration.
• Exposure to recommendation systems, fashion/culture AI, or multimodal embeddings.
• You’ve built or scaled something end-to-end yourself.
