Python Backend Engineer

Overview

A pioneering and well-funded AI company is seeking a talented
Python Backend Engineer
to build the core infrastructure for its revolutionary autonomous systems. This is a unique opportunity to join an innovative team at the forefront of engineering and artificial intelligence, creating a new category of software that will redefine how complex products in sectors like aerospace, automotive, and advanced manufacturing are designed and developed.

Why Join?

• Build the Future of Engineering:
  This isn't just another backend role. Your work will directly shape how next-generation rockets, cars, and aircraft are designed, fundamentally changing the engineering landscape.
• Solve Unprecedented Technical Puzzles:
  Tackle unique challenges in building the infrastructure for autonomous AI agents, including simulation orchestration, multi-agent coordination, and scalable model serving.
• Shape a Foundational Platform:
  As a critical member of a pioneering team, you will have a significant impact on the technical direction and core architecture of an entirely new category of software.
• Join a High-Impact Team:
  Work in a collaborative, fast-paced environment where your expertise is valued, and you have end-to-end ownership of critical systems.
• Compensation & Location:
  Base salary of up to $210,000 + equity + benefits, while working on-site with the team in a modern office in downtown San Francisco.

The Role

As a Python Backend Engineer, you will be instrumental in constructing the infrastructure that underpins these autonomous engineering agents. Your responsibilities will span model serving, simulation orchestration, multi-agent coordination, and the development of robust, developer-facing APIs. This position is critical for delivering the fast, reliable, and scalable systems that professional engineers will trust and depend on in high-stakes production environments.

You will:

• Own and build the core backend infrastructure for the autonomous AI agents, focusing on scalability, model serving, and multi-agent orchestration.
• Design and maintain robust APIs while integrating essential third-party tools like CAD software and simulation backends into the core platform.
• Develop backend services to process and serve complex 3D visualizations from simulation and geometric data.
• Collaborate across ML, frontend, and simulation teams to shape the product and engage directly with early customers to drive infrastructure needs.
• Make foundational architectural decisions that will define the technical future and scalability of the entire platform.

The Essential Requirements

• Strong
  backend software engineering experience
  , with a primary focus on
  Python
  .
• Proven experience in designing, building, and maintaining
  production-level APIs
  (
  FastAPI preferred
  but Flask and Django also considered).
• Experience with
  3D visualization libraries
  or tools such as
  PyVista, ParaView, or VTK
  .
• Excellent systems-thinking skills and the ability to reason about the interactions between compute, data, and models.
• Experience working in fast-paced environments where end-to-end ownership and proactivity are essential.
• Exceptional communication and collaboration abilities.

What Will Make You Stand Out

• Experience integrating with scientific or engineering software (such as CAD, FEA, or CFD tools).
• Exposure to agent frameworks, workflow orchestration engines, or distributed systems.
• Familiarity with model serving frameworks (e.g., TorchServe, Triton) or simulation backends.
• Previous experience building developer-focused tools or working in high-trust, customer-facing technical roles.
