The posting

Apify is the largest marketplace of tools for AI. On Apify Store https://apify.com/store, tens of thousands of Actors https://apify.com/actors, purpose-built tools for the web, help people and AI agents get real-time data, track competitors, generate leads, and connect apps. Anyone can build one and earn from it.

Apify is looking for a Backend Engineer for the Foundation group. The Foundation group takes care of the core of the Apify platform, both for product and tech.

WHAT THE GROUP IS RESPONSIBLE FOR:

- Running Actors end-to-end, from the Start button in the Console to the container or microVM running on our servers.

- Storages where the Actors save their progress or output, from the underlying databases to the frontend, rendering the storage contents.

- Actor Standby https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/development/programming-interface/standby, our way of deploying Actors as real-time, synchronous services.

- Apify Proxy and Unblocker, our services to avoid being blocked while accessing the internet

- Our public API (the framework, not each individual endpoint).

- Our Console (the framework, not every feature in it).

- The AWS infrastructure on which all the Apify platform apps are deployed.

- The deployment process of those apps.

You’d be joining a small cross-functional team with other experienced hackers focused on backend services in this department.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

- A strong technical background or a great professional track record. We are looking for exceptional candidates, no matter the seniority.

- 3+ years of industry experience building backend systems and APIs.

- Great skills at developing and debugging in TypeScript/Node.js, or having this skill in some other programming language, and are able to learn anything quickly.

- Familiarity with Linux.

- Experience with AWS, other public clouds, and any technology mentioned above is a plus.

- Experiment-driven and collaborative mindset.

- Good communication skills in English.

OUR TECH STACK:

- Infra: AWS Compute (Kubernetes (EKS), EC2, Lambda), Helm, Terraform, CloudFormation, ArgoCD, MongoDB, Redis, DynamoDB, S3, GitHub Actions

- Monitoring: Grafana, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, Mezmo, Sentry, PagerDuty

- Frontend: React.js, styled-components, Storybook, Chromatic, Cypress, Playwright

- Backend: TypeScript/Node.js, Nest.js, Next.js, Docusaurus, Vitest

- Tools: GitHub, Notion, Google Workspace, Slack

- OS, code editor, and AI assistant of your choice (Claude premium with unlimited tokens, GH Copilot, Cursor, Gemini, or JetBrains AI)

- Process: two-week sprints, code reviews, tests, automating whatever we can, and deploying multiple times per day.

WHY SHOULD YOU WORK AT APIFY?

- Space, support, and autonomy for personal growth, with a direct impact on Apify's success

- Full-time position at our amazing offices in Prague (100Yards) or Brno (Titanium) 🏰

- Flexible working hours (perfect for both night owls 🦉 and early birds 🐥)

- Nobody counts holidays as long as the work gets done 💪

- Unlimited Claude for every Apifier. We don't count tokens. Just use them well 🤖

- Stock options and profit sharing 💰

- We welcome pets, kids, and bikes at the office 🐕👨‍👧

- Epic team buildings and offsites 🚢 with biking, canoeing, and other adventures 🪂

- Solid education and training budget, conference tickets, internal "Eat & Learn" sessions, and the possibility to work across teams 👩🏼‍💻👨🏽‍💻

- Generous hardware budget 💻

- Free lunches every day when you're in the office 🌮🍱🍜🍕🥡

- Unlimited supply of ☕ & 🍺 and snacks

- Free entry to the wonderful Prague Zoo 🐘

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
