About the Role

As a Founding Software Engineer, you will work across backend engineering, cloud infrastructure, and distributed systems to build reliable and scalable services. You'll take ownership of critical components, contribute to architectural decisions, and help shape the technical foundation of our platform.

This role is suited to an engineer who enjoys solving challenging problems, working independently, and building products from the ground up.

What You'll Do

  • Design, develop, and maintain backend services and REST APIs.
  • Build systems for cloud workspace provisioning, lifecycle management, and resource orchestration.
  • Work with containerized environments, Docker, and cloud infrastructure.
  • Improve system performance, reliability, scalability, and security.
  • Build integrations, SDKs, and developer-facing tools.
  • Collaborate on technical architecture and ship features from idea to production.

What We're Looking For

  • Strong programming skills in TypeScript/JavaScript and Node.js.
  • Understanding of backend development, REST APIs, and database design.
  • Experience with PostgreSQL, Redis, or similar data systems.
  • Familiarity with Docker, Linux, and cloud infrastructure.
  • Ability to debug complex problems and write maintainable code.
  • A strong sense of ownership and willingness to work in an early-stage startup environment.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Kubernetes, container orchestration, or distributed systems.
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms, virtual machines, and networking.
  • Experience building developer tools, SDKs, or infrastructure automation.
  • Interest in AI infrastructure, GPU computing, or cloud development environments.

Why Join Velocity?

  • Build core infrastructure for a growing cloud development platform.
  • Take ownership of meaningful engineering challenges.
  • Work with modern technologies across cloud computing and developer tooling.
  • Contribute directly to product and architectural decisions.
  • Grow with an engineering team focused on building reliable, scalable systems.

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.
