About the Role

You'll build the software backbone powering autonomous manufacturing operations at a seed-stage AI supply chain startup. As a Senior or Staff Software Engineer on the Platform team, you'll design scalable backend services, data pipelines, and integrations that coordinate AI-powered agents and high-stakes transactions across complex supply chain workflows, directly enabling physical goods to move reliably through manufacturing systems.

Responsibilities

  • Design and scale backend services using Next.js API routes, background jobs, and serverless functions to handle high-throughput order processing.
  • Build and productionize LLM-based agents, AI/ML infrastructure, and RAG patterns for intelligent quote analysis and supplier recommendations.
  • Own the data layer by designing PostgreSQL schemas, migrations, and complex queries for materials, quotes, orders, and supplier relationships.
  • Architect event-driven systems with reliable pipelines for order state management, notification triggers, and cross-system synchronization.
  • Implement caching and rate limiting strategies to ensure reliable external API calls at scale.
  • Establish monitoring, alerting, and observability patterns while owning incident response for backend systems.

Requirements

  • 5 or more years building backend services, data pipelines, or platform infrastructure in production environments.
  • Strong TypeScript and Next.js hands-on experience, with recent, direct involvement in web development.
  • Demonstrated experience designing systems with transactional guarantees (ACID semantics, exactly-once processing) and idempotent APIs.
  • Experience building NLP/ML pipelines for data extraction from unstructured documents, including OCR and information extraction.
  • Experience designing and scaling PostgreSQL or relational database schemas for transactional workloads.
  • Experience building event-driven systems, message queues, or reliable pipelines for state management and cross-system synchronization.
  • Experience integrating with ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, or similar) and third-party APIs, including legacy or poorly documented interfaces.
  • Direct, recent hands-on AI experience including agentic frameworks alongside web development work.
  • Professional experience in manufacturing supply chain, procurement, or logistics domains.
  • Comfort operating on a very small, fast-moving team with flexibility and a generalist mindset.
  • Strong computer science fundamentals.
  • Prior experience as a founder or founding engineer at a startup is strongly preferred.
