About the Role

Our client is hiring a Backend Engineer (India-based, Remote) to design, build, and scale the core memory infrastructure powering production-grade AI agents.

This role is intended for an experienced engineer with 7–10 years of backend engineering experience, who has deeply internalized AI-native engineering practices and actively builds using tools such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, or comparable AI development tools as a core part of their workflow.

The hiring process is intentionally non-traditional and skill-first. There is no evaluation based on IIT pedigree, LeetCode performance, or conventional resume filters. Instead, the only evaluation criterion is: how you build with AI in real-world scenarios.

Candidates are expected to submit prompt logs or transcripts from Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or Windsurf demonstrating a feature or product they are proud of.

What You'll Own

• Build and scale backend systems powering the memory infrastructure of the product
• Own and deliver features end-to-end, integrating AI coding tools into the core development workflow
• Design, manage, and optimize database, storage, and retrieval systems for persistent memory
• Collaborate closely on system architecture, scalability, performance, and reliability engineering
• Contribute directly to product roadmap decisions based on real customer usage and production insights

Requirements

Must-Have

• 7–10 years of backend engineering experience

• Ability and willingness to submit prompt log transcripts from a feature or product you are proud of
• Strong Python fundamentals
• Strong PostgreSQL or comparable relational database fundamentals
• Comfort owning systems end-to-end in production
• Based in India, remote work from anywhere in the country

Nice-to-Have

• Prior AI infrastructure or developer tools product experience
• FastAPI fluency
• Open-source contributions in AI, memory, vector databases, or developer tools
• Prior experience in memory systems, RAG pipelines, or vector database engineering
• Public technical writing or conference talks on AI-native engineering practices
