About the role
We’re hiring a Full-Stack Engineer to build data-intensive, real-time web apps and event-driven services. You’ll work across backend and frontend to ship reliable features, integrate APIs, and scale systems that process streaming data.
What you’ll do
- Build end-to-end features across a Python backend (FastAPI/Django/Flask) and a modern React (TypeScript) frontend.
- Design event-driven microservices and streaming pipelines using Kafka (or similar).
- Implement media pipelines for audio/video/image (FFmpeg, GStreamer, WebRTC) from ingest → processing → storage → retrieval.
- Create and harden APIs, enforce security best practices, and deliver low-latency user experiences.
- Own quality: automated tests, CI/CD, observability, performance profiling, and documentation.
- Collaborate with product and research teams to translate requirements into shippable solutions.
Minimum qualifications
- 3–7+ years in full-stack or backend-heavy roles.
- Strong Python and React (TypeScript, Hooks).
- Distributed systems fundamentals; hands-on with Apache Kafka or similar event streaming.
- Practical experience with media processing (FFmpeg/GStreamer/WebRTC) or a strong willingness to learn.
- Proficiency with SQL/NoSQL, Docker, Git, testing, and CI/CD.
Preferred qualifications
- Real-time UIs (WebSockets), caching, or search (vector/text).
- Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure.
- Performance tuning, profiling, and cost-aware design.
Why join us
- Work on meaningful, high-impact problems using a modern stack.
- Ownership, autonomy, and a growth-minded, inclusive culture.
