System Designer – Backend Developer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Morocco.

📋 Description

• Take ownership of the system architecture – you will determine how data is structured, where the state resides, how components communicate, and how the entire system performs under stress.

• Design and oversee our data layer from the foundational level – including tables and their relationships, indexing strategy, and optimizing queries/loads to accommodate increasing data and traffic.

• Create queues, background processes, and long-running workflows that remain accurate and dependable even under significant load and partial failures.

• Make significant, irreversible design choices early on, while clearly reasoning about the trade-offs involved.

• Develop and sustain our web application.

• Participate in architectural decisions, influence the trajectory of our tech stack, and contribute to the overall product vision.

• Construct robust pipelines for document and email processing as well as third-party integrations that can gracefully manage volume spikes.

• Build and enhance agents for our expanding template library.

• Extend our RAG/knowledge base system (embeddings, semantic search, reranking).

• Work within an AI-first development environment powered by Claude/Cursor.

• Oversee version control and team collaboration using GitHub.

⛳️ Requirements

• A solid background in systems design – capable of creating a database from the ground up (including tables, relationships, indexes) and understanding database load, query performance, and data growth, rather than just executing CRUD operations on an existing schema.

• An instinct for thinking in terms of consistency, throughput, failure modes, and bottlenecks – you can anticipate where the system may encounter challenges before they arise.

• Comfort with designing queues, background processes, and long-running workflows, along with the discernment to make difficult design trade-offs.

• You regard reliability, scalability, and maintainability as fundamental concerns. If you've read "Designing Data-Intensive Applications" (Kleppmann) or have a similar mindset, you will fit right in.

• Strong English communication skills for effective collaboration within the team.

🏝️ Benefits

• 100% remote work.

• Permanent contract in your country of residence through our partner Deel (Employer of Record).

• An AI-first approach – leverage multiple Claude/Cursor/Codex subscriptions as needed.

• A product that genuinely excites our customers.

• A modern tech stack – work exclusively with cutting-edge technologies.

• Job security: Every new hire is intended to evolve with us long-term, aiming for permanent employment.

• Competitive salary and career opportunities: As we continue to grow and expand, we require more experts and/or leaders on our team.

• Flexible working hours.
