Backend Engineer

AvatarOS • Full-time • Remote (United States) • $80k - $160k / year • 3w ago

What You'll Do

Develop high-performance backend services in Go and Python, writing clean, maintainable code for AI-driven workflows
Build and maintain APIs that seamlessly integrate with our AI microservices, handling complex data transformations
Write custom algorithms and data processing logic for non-standard workflows unique to our cutting-edge technology
Code efficient caching layers and session management using Redis for real-time user interactions
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for automated testing and deployment of backend services
Collaborate directly with ML engineers to write integration code that bridges AI model outputs with application logic
Work closely with technical artists and to develop APIs that deliver real-time rendering systems
Write data processing pipelines that handle large-scale, real-time avatar generation and manipulation
Code event-driven systems that respond dynamically to AI processing results and user interactions
Implement custom serialization, validation, and transformation logic for complex avatar data structures

Push the boundaries of what's possible in backend development. You'll write code that solves unique programming challenges at the intersection of traditional backend logic, realtime graphics and AI-powered systems, implementing solutions that haven't been coded before.

Who You Are

4+ years of backend development experience with strong coding skills in Go and Python
Solid experience writing complex SQL queries and designing data models with relational databases such as PostgreSQL
Hands-on experience coding with Redis for caching implementation and data structure manipulation
Experience writing code for containerized applications and microservices communication
Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipeline development and DevOps automation practices
Strong programming experience integrating with AI/ML services and handling model outputs in code
Track record of writing performant code that handles complex, non-standard data processing workflows
Creative programmer who excels at coding solutions for novel technical challenges
Experience writing asynchronous code and implementing event-driven programming patterns
Strong coding practices around testing, debugging, and code optimization
Solid programming fundamentals with API development and service integration

Bonus Points:

Experience coding with gRPC, Redis pub/sub, or other high-performance communication and messaging protocols
Background writing real-time processing code or streaming data applications
Familiarity with open source tooling and self-hosted infrastructure solutions
Previous programming experience integrating traditional backend code with AI/ML model pipelines
Experience with concurrent programming and parallel processing implementations
Preference for candidates comfortable working with self-hosted solutions over reliance on big cloud providers

At AvatarOS, we're not just writing standard web services – we're coding the future of authentic digital human interaction. As our Backend Engineer, you'll write the code that seamlessly bridges traditional backend development with cutting-edge AI technology, solving programming challenges that no one has tackled before. We value engineers who can work effectively with open source technologies and self-hosted solutions, bringing technical depth beyond managed cloud services.
