About the Role

This is an engineering role at a small, fast-moving AI software startup where you will own two of the most critical technical challenges: backend scalability and LLM/AI agent flow optimization. Your work will directly shape platform performance and the quality of the user experience for a product that sits at the intersection of AI and everyday professional productivity.

What You'll Do

• Design and implement backend systems and services built to operate at scale.

• Tune and iterate on LLM integrations and AI agent orchestration to improve reliability and efficiency in production.

• Take end-to-end ownership of both backend infrastructure and AI pipeline work, shipping meaningful improvements continuously.

What We're Looking For

• Substantial hands-on track record of coding and shipping production software over time.

• Strong backend engineering experience designing and scaling distributed systems.

• Hands-on experience optimizing LLMs and AI agent flows in real production environments.

• High agency, clear ownership mindset, and intentional career choices that reflect genuine commitment to craft.

• A strong side-project portfolio demonstrating technical depth and sustained curiosity.

• Experience working at fast-growing, early-stage startups is a strong plus.

• Practical experience is valued; formal credentials are not required.

• Eligible and willing to work on-site in Stockholm, including relocation if needed. Visa sponsorship is not available.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary range: $80,000 to $120,000 USD annually, plus equity. The salary and equity mix is negotiable, with flexibility for exceptionally senior candidates. Visa sponsorship is not available.
