Cherry Ventures is supporting our portfolio with this hire
About us
We are a newly funded stealth company on a mission to revolutionize the audit space (financial, IT, and ESG). Traditional audits involve tedious manual checks on unstructured data, frustrating both auditees and auditors. Meanwhile, the demand for audits is skyrocketing.
Our solution? Cutting-edge automated software for auditors. As an AI-native company, we prioritize innovative research and outstanding UX to seamlessly guide our users through the automation journey.
We value trust, clear user value, fast-paced decision-making, and the joy of working together on a huge mission!
Your Role
As a Founding Software Engineer (Backend), you'll be a crucial part of the core team building Cortea. In this role, you'll focus on two key areas of our tech stack.
The first one is the API that powers our web app. We tend to use RPC interfaces and handle most of the data transformation on the backend. We also prefer writing SQL directly over ORMs. In general, a solid knowledge of relational databases is going to be very valuable.
The second area is RAG pipelines. While prior experience with ML/AI is highly appreciated, it's not required. You're going to make sure we build robust, safe, and scalable pipelines. This might involve dealing with queues and asynchronous processes, but keeping a bias for simplicity and an 80/20 mentality will be critical.
Finally, you should enjoy running experiments, defining evaluation criteria, and occasionally diving deeper into the data.
Qualifications
- Expertise in building and consuming web APIs
- Experience with asynchronous systems (e.g., workflow engines, long-running pipelines)
- Solid understanding of relational databases
- Familiarity with IaC standards and cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, or Azure)
- Experience in Python
- Familiarity with at least one statically typed language (e.g., Go, Java, Rust, C# etc.)
Bonus
- Experience with RAG pipelines
- Having worked on MLOps / LLMOps systems
Benefits
- Highly competitive salary ranging
- Significant equity stake
We are working on putting together a benefits package that includes elements like a flexible holiday policy, office meals, gym subsidy, and other benefits.
We value diversity and inclusion, building a team with varied backgrounds and perspectives. 🧘♀️🧘♂️
