New York, NY, United States Coders Connect Full time
Job Description
Coders Connect is partnering with one of New York's fastest-growing AI start-ups to hire a Backend Engineer who thrives on building systems at scale.

This company is pioneering a new product category-helping global brands understand and control how they show up in AI-driven search environments. If you're a backend builder who wants to shape the infrastructure of a real-time, data-intensive platform, this one's for you.

As a Backend Engineer, you'll be designing the scalable APIs, data pipelines, and high-performance systems that power a cutting-edge analytics platform at the intersection of AI, data, and search visibility. You'll work closely with front-end, data, and product teams to create the backend layer that makes fast, intelligent insights possible.

What You'll Do:

  • Architect and implement backend systems that support real-time, AI-driven analytics.
  • Design and maintain APIs that handle large-scale structured and unstructured data.
  • Optimize data processing pipelines for speed, scalability, and reliability.
  • Collaborate with engineers, designers, and data scientists to ship features that matter.
  • Own key technical decisions and balance speed vs long-term maintainability.
  • Contribute to a fast-moving, product-first engineering culture.
Requirements
  • Software engineering degree or related degree from a top USA University
  • Production experience with Node.js, Python, or Go.
  • Deep knowledge of relational or NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, or similar).
  • Experience designing and optimizing data pipelines and working with distributed systems.
  • Solid understanding of API security, authentication, and performance tuning.
  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure) and containerization tools like Docker or Kubernetes.
  • Bonus: background working on analytics or data-heavy products at fast-scaling start-ups.
Benefits
  • Impact from Day 1: Own core infrastructure in a start-up that's scaling fast.
  • Design + Data Mindset: Work closely with front end and product teams to deliver real-time insights beautifully and reliably.
  • Tight-Knit Team: Join a lean, ambitious engineering squad with start-up roots and a hacker culture.
  • Onsite Energy: The team thrives on in-person collaboration, speed, and iteration.
  • Compensation: $150K-$250K base + 1-1.5x salary in equity.
  • Visa Sponsorship: Available for exceptional candidates open to relocating.
