Our platform powers:

• Data aggregation & enrichment (socials, team, LinkedIn, project metadata).
• AI-powered search & embeddings using MongoDB Vector DB.
• AI agents that research and validate project data.
• Integrations with TalkJS, Apollo, Slack, Twitter, Cloudflare, Postmark, Tranzilla, SimilarWeb, and more.

We are now looking for a Backend Lead Developer to lead our technical backend efforts, drive innovation, and ensure scalability of our growing platform.

• Web scraping & data pipelines: Design and maintain robust scraping systems using Python libraries (e.g., Scrapy, Requests, BeautifulSoup, Playwright).
• Database management: Optimize and maintain PostgreSQL (with Alembic/Alchemy) and MongoDB (vector search/embeddings).
• AI & agent integration: Work with LLMs (ChatGPT, Perplexity) and CrewAI to build and scale AI-driven features.
• DevOps & infrastructure: Manage AWS services (S3, EC2, Lambda, CloudWatch, API Gateway, SageMaker) and automation (Bash scripting, cron jobs).
• Blockchain expertise: Analyze and interact with smart contracts (Solidity – entry level), understand blockchain data structures, and integrate relevant protocols.
• Team leadership: Mentor developers, perform code reviews, enforce best practices, and ensure high-quality deliverables.
• Integration management: Oversee and expand integrations with 3rd-party APIs and services (TalkJS, Slack, Twitter, Apollo, etc.).
