About Byldd:

Byldd is a Startup Studio that helps founders launch and scale software companies. We work closely with founders to refine ideas, identify core pain points, build scalable software products, acquire initial customers, and support growth.


At Byldd, engineers get the opportunity to work on diverse and challenging projects across industries like fintech, healthcare, AI, operations, and enterprise software. Since we work with multiple startups at different stages, the problems are rarely repetitive — one week you may be building an AI-assisted workflow tool, and the next you may be architecting a scalable SaaS platform.


Our engineering culture is strongly focused on ownership, fast execution, and leveraging modern development workflows — including AI-assisted development using tools like Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, and other AI tooling to improve speed, quality, and problem-solving.


We primarily work with technologies such as React/Next.js, Node.js, TypeScript, MongoDB, and modern cloud infrastructure.


About the role:


We’re looking for experienced Full-Stack Engineers with a strong backend inclination to join us on core business projects.

Your role will involve understanding business requirements, product flows, and mockups. We’ll provide the “what” and the “why” behind the product decisions, and you’ll take ownership of translating them into scalable technical solutions.


While this is a full-stack role, the expectation is backend-heavy ownership — including system design, APIs, database architecture, integrations, scalability, and performance optimization. You’ll collaborate with founders and senior engineers to architect and build products end-to-end.

Since we move fast, we highly value engineers who can independently figure things out, use AI effectively in their workflows, and ship high-quality products with speed.


This role is ideal for someone who enjoys combining strong backend engineering fundamentals with modern AI-assisted development practices.


What You’ll Do

  • Build and ship scalable full-stack applications from scratch
  • Design and develop robust backend systems, APIs, and database architectures
  • Work closely with founders, designers, and product teams
  • Architect systems with scalability, maintainability, and performance in mind
  • Use AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, Copilot, etc.) to improve development speed and productivity
  • Review, debug, and optimize production systems
  • Think through edge cases, reliability, and long-term scalability



Who you are: 

  • You have 2+ years of non-internship experience as a full-stack developer with strong backend expertise
  • You enjoy building products from 0 → 1
  • You think beyond tasks and understand business objectives
  • You are comfortable taking ownership and contribute towards making technical decisions
  • You actively use or are excited to use AI tools in your engineering workflow
  • You are strong in problem-solving and figuring things out independently
  • You care deeply about writing clean, maintainable, scalable code
  • You enjoy working in fast-paced startup environments
  • You’re comfortable contributing across the stack while being particularly strong on the backend side

Preferred Tech Stack

(Experience in some or most of the following is preferred)

  • Node.js
  • TypeScript
  • MongoDB
  • Express.js
  • React / Next.js
  • REST APIs
  • Cloud deployment & modern dev tooling

Experience with AI-assisted coding tools and workflows is a strong plus.

Full-Stack Engineer (AI-Native) | 2-4 Years Experience

 

About the Role

We're hiring a Full-Stack Engineer who is equally comfortable building a polished Next.js interface and a reliable NestJS API behind it. You'll build customer-facing products, including AI-powered features like chat interfaces, streaming responses, and agent-driven workflows. You'll own features end to end, from database schema to UI, and use AI tools daily to ship faster without lowering the quality bar.

What You'll Do

 

Frontend

  • Build responsive, accessible, high-performance UIs with React, Next.js (App Router, RSC) and TypeScript
  • Build AI-facing interfaces: streaming chat UIs, tool-call/agent-status displays, and loading, error, and retry states for non-deterministic outputs
  • Monitor web vitals and fix performance regressions

Backend

  • Design and build scalable REST/GraphQL APIs and services with Node.js and NestJS
  • Model, query, and optimize data in PostgreSQL (schema design, indexing, migrations) using an ORM like Prisma or Drizzle
  • Implement auth, authorization, validation, background jobs, queues, and caching (Redis)
  • Integrate LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini), including streaming (SSE/WebSockets), tool calling, retries, rate limits, and cost/latency control

AI-Assisted Engineering

  • Use AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, etc.) for scaffolding, refactoring, debugging, and test writing
  • Write and maintain project context for AI tools (rules files, AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md, reusable prompts) so the whole team gets better output
  • Review AI-generated code critically for correctness, security, performance, and maintainability

Team and Delivery

  • Write unit, integration, and E2E tests, using AI to speed them up rather than skip them
  • Take part in code reviews, sprint planning, architecture discussions, and on-call/incident follow-ups
  • Document APIs, decisions, and runbooks clearly

Must-Have (Non-Negotiable)

Frontend

  • Strong JavaScript (ES6+) and TypeScript
  • React (hooks, state management, rendering behavior) and Next.js (App Router, SSR/SSG/RSC)
  • HTML/CSS fundamentals, Tailwind or similar, responsive design, and accessibility basics

Backend

  • Production experience with Node.js and a structured framework (NestJS preferred; Express/Fastify with good architecture is fine)
  • Solid PostgreSQL skills: relational modeling, joins, indexes, transactions, query optimization
  • API design: REST principles, pagination, versioning, error handling, input validation
  • Authentication and authorization (JWT, OAuth2, sessions, RBAC)

Engineering Fundamentals

  • Git, PR workflows, and code review habits
  • Testing across layers (Jest/Vitest, React Testing Library, API/integration tests; Playwright/Cypress is a plus)
  • Basic security awareness (OWASP top 10, secrets management, input sanitization)

AI-Assisted Development

  • Daily, hands-on use of at least one AI coding tool (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, Windsurf, or similar)
  • Ability to write clear prompts, give useful context, and break big tasks into steps an AI can handle
  • Habit of reviewing, testing, and understanding AI output before committing it
  • Basic understanding of how LLMs work: context windows, hallucinations, token cost, and why outputs vary

 

Nice to Have

  • Redis, message queues (BullMQ, SQS, Kafka), or event-driven architecture
  • Monorepo tooling (Turborepo, pnpm workspaces, Nx)
  • Design system or component library work (shadcn/ui, Radix, Storybook)
  • tRPC, GraphQL, or OpenAPI-driven type-safe clients
  • Multi-tenant SaaS, payments (Stripe/Razorpay), or real-time features
  • Open-source contributions, a side project, or shipped AI features you can demo

What We Expect From You

  • Ownership: take a feature from schema to UI to production, and flag risks early
  • Judgment over speed: AI makes you faster, and you're still accountable for every line you ship
  • Security awareness: no secrets in prompts, no blind copy-paste of AI code, and sensitive data stays out of third-party tools
  • Systems thinking: consider scale, failure modes, and cost, not just the happy path
  • Learning speed: the AI tooling landscape changes every few months, and you keep up and share what works
  • Clear communication: PRs, docs, and async updates that others can follow

We are open to full stack engineers whose primary strength and interest is backend. If you have shipped full stack work but the backend is where you do your deepest engineering, you are a fit for this role.

The mandatory requirement for this role is hands-on production experience as a senior backend engineer building complex, scalable systems in Node.js, with end-to-end ownership of architecture, data, and operations on at least one live platform.

The role is hands-on and architectural.

Expect to design system architecture, lead a small group of backend engineers, build the hardest parts yourself, set engineering standards, and partner closely with frontend, AI, and DevOps engineers.

A typical week includes an architecture decision on a new service, hands-on implementation of a critical path, a code review with mid-level engineers, and a working session with the AI engineer on an integration contract.

Database Design and Performance

Drive PostgreSQL schema design, indexing, query optimisation, migrations, and capacity planning.

Set the data-modelling standard across the pod.


Caching, Queues, and Workflows

Design caching (Redis), event-driven patterns (Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQS, NATS), and long-running workflow orchestration (Temporal, BullMQ, Celery, or equivalent).

Handle retries, idempotency, and failure recovery.


Multi-Tenancy and Platform Patterns

Design and implement multi-tenant data isolation, RBAC, audit logging, and resource quotas appropriate to enterprise-grade products.


API and Integration Design

Set the standard for REST, GraphQL, and gRPC contracts.

Drive versioning, authentication (OAuth, JWT, SSO), security by default, and developer ergonomics.


Observability and Operations

Instrument services with OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and Grafana.

Define SLOs, lead incident response, and write postmortems.


Code Quality and Mentorship

Run code reviews, define conventions, mentor mid-level engineers, and raise the engineering bar.


AI-Assisted Engineering Discipline

Use Claude, Cursor, and similar tools day to day.

Set the team standard for prompts, patterns, AI-assisted review, and validation of AI-generated backend code.


Client Engagement

Represent Unico Connect in technical conversations with customers.

Defend architectural decisions, communicate trade-offs, and manage scope.


Requirements:

Hands-on Production Experience as a Senior or Lead Backend Engineer in Node.js (Mandatory)

Must have personally built and shipped complex production systems in Node.js, owning architecture, data, and operations on at least one live engagement.

Full stack engineers whose deepest work is on the backend qualify.

POCs and internal tools alone do not qualify.


5+ Years of Professional Backend Engineering Experience

With at least 1 to 2 years in a senior or lead role with direct responsibility for technical decisions and team output.


Deep Node.js and TypeScript Proficiency

Strong with Express, NestJS, or Fastify.

Comfort with async patterns, streams, worker threads, and performance profiling.


Python as a Strong Plus

Hands-on production experience with FastAPI, Django, or Flask is a meaningful advantage.

Willingness and demonstrated ability to pick up Python as engagements demand is required.


PostgreSQL Depth

Schema design, normalisation, indexing, query performance, migrations, and at least one production system where you owned the data model end to end.


Caching and Event-Driven Architecture

Hands-on with Redis (or equivalent) and message queues or event-driven patterns (RabbitMQ, SQS, Kafka, NATS).


AWS Depth

Hands-on production experience with EC2, S3, RDS, IAM, VPC, ECR, and at least one of EKS, ECS, or Lambda.

Comfort owning deployment, monitoring, and cost.


System Design and End-to-End Ownership

Able to take an ambiguous problem, break it into components, evaluate alternatives, produce an architecture that holds up under review and load, plan execution, and ship with limited supervision.


AI-Assisted Engineering Experience

Daily use of Claude, Cursor, Copilot, or equivalent.

Strong discipline for reviewing and validating AI-generated backend code.


Excellent Written and Spoken English

Experience working directly with international clients.

Confident defending architectural choices in writing and in review.


Nice to Have:

  • Workflow orchestration (Temporal, Airflow)
  • GraphQL (Apollo, gRPC)
  • Sandboxed execution environments
  • Multi-tenant SaaS experience
  • OpenTelemetry instrumentation
  • Prior agency or consulting experience

About the Role


Unico Connect is an AI-first technology partner that builds custom mobile, web, and AI products for clients across multiple geographies. We are hiring a Backend Engineer for a dedicated client engagement building an AI-powered application builder platform.


The backend is the operational core of the product: it manages user projects and sessions, coordinates long-running AI agent workloads, maintains project state, and serves as the integration layer between the frontend, the AI system, and the underlying infrastructure.


The mandatory requirement is hands-on production experience shipping Node.js services, with end-to-end ownership of API design, data modelling, and at least one production system involving background job processing or event-driven patterns.




Responsibilities


API and service development: Design and build REST APIs in Node.js with TypeScript. Cover authentication, session management, input validation, structured error handling, streaming responses (SSE, WebSockets), and rate limiting. Maintain clean API contracts that the frontend and AI system can rely on.


Database design and management: Own PostgreSQL schema design for product domains including user accounts, projects, file trees, session state, and generated artefacts. Write efficient queries, manage migrations, and optimise for read patterns that serve a real-time editor experience.


Caching strategy: Implement and maintain caching with Redis for session data, project state, and frequently read configuration. Design cache invalidation logic that keeps the editor experience consistent without stale reads.


Queue and background job management: Implement and operate background job infrastructure using BullMQ or equivalent. AI agent runs are long-running and stateful; handle retries, failure states, priority queues, and concurrency limits.


AI system integration: Build the integration layer between the backend and the AI agent system. Manage job dispatch, result handling, streaming output to the frontend, and error propagation.


Multi-tenancy and access control: Implement tenant data isolation, RBAC, and resource ownership enforcement across all API surfaces.


Observability and reliability: Instrument services with structured logging, metrics, and tracing. Write defensive code with sensible timeouts, fallback behaviour, and circuit breaking on external dependencies.


Testing and code quality: Write unit and integration tests for the services you ship. Review the work of peers and contribute to shared engineering conventions.
