The posting

About Us We’re Stimuler, an early-stage AI startup focused on transforming language learning. Our AI tutor provides real-time interaction, adapting to users’ speech inputs to build fluency faster. We’re looking for a Founding Backend Engineer to architect and scale our core infrastructure.

Role & Impact In this role, you will design, develop, and maintain the backend systems that power our AI tutor. You’ll work at the intersection of AI infrastructure, distributed systems, and real-time data processing—shaping the technology and the team as we grow.

Key Responsibilities

  1. Infrastructure & Architecture Design and scale distributed systems for real-time speech processing. Own data pipelines from ingestion to model serving. Ensure security, privacy, and compliance for user speech data.
  2. Performance & Reliability Implement robust monitoring, logging, and alerting for 24x7 availability. Optimise system performance and scalability.
  3. Team Leadership & Collaboration Mentor junior engineers and work closely with AI/ML teams. Contribute to hiring efforts as we expand.

Must-Have Requirements

  • Experience: 6+ years in backend or platform engineering (focus on distributed systems).
  • Cloud & Containers: Proficiency with Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS (or similar cloud platforms).
  • Real-Time Streaming: Familiarity with audio/video streaming in high-availability, auto-scaling environments.
  • Databases: Strong SQL skills (PostgreSQL preferred), including query optimization, schema design; caching layers (Redis, Memcached).

Good-to-Have Skills

  • AI/ML Pipeline: Exposure to GPU resource management and distributed tools (e.g., Rayserve).
  • Domain Experience: B2C mobile backend knowledge.
  • Cloud Expertise: AWS, Azure, GCP, or multi-cloud strategies.

Security & Compliance: Understanding of GDPR, CCPA, and data governance best practices.

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.
