As a Senior Engineer at Invisible, you'll work closely with technical leads and product managers to design, build, and optimize backend systems that power AI-driven tools and applications. You'll contribute to architectural discussions, own feature delivery end-to-end, and ensure the systems you build are robust, scalable, and maintainable.

What You'll Do

• Design, develop, and maintain backend services for AI-powered applications.
• Implement APIs, workflow systems, and event-driven architectures, including GraphQL subscriptions.
• Integrate generative AI frameworks to deliver intelligent product features.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product, operations, and AI teams to ship high-quality solutions.
• Apply best practices in code quality, testing, observability, and security.
• Contribute to continuous improvement in our engineering processes, tooling, and architecture.

What We Need

• 6+ years professional experience with Python development.
• Recent experience building applications or tools using generative AI frameworks (OpenAI or others), either professionally or through advanced side projects.
• Solid experience with cloud platforms (GCP preferred).
• Proficiency with container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Strong understanding of API design, workflow systems, and event-driven architectures.
• Experience with relational databases (Postgres preferred).
• Familiarity with modular software architecture and scalable system design principles.
• Proficiency with version control systems, especially Git.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively in a collaborative environment.
