Job Description
📋 Description Design, build, and operate the backend systems powering Midjourney. Own parts of the platform from schema to service to deployment and health. Build tooling and observability to understand production systems before issues. Respond to production issues and turn each into lasting improvement. Simplify growing systems by reducing complexity and building durable abstractions. Partner with inference, infrastructure, and product engineers as the platform evolves. 🎯 Requirements Built and operated production backend systems under real traffic. Comfortable designing APIs, modeling data, and working across services. Think about failure modes and build systems that behave well under load. Own production, including debugging, observability, and tooling. Enjoy making complex systems simpler. AI tooling is part of your workflow; you communicate clearly across disciplines. 🎁 Benefits Startup pace with research-lab resources. Tiny team, large ambitions; decisions in production fast. Move at the speed of thought; iterate fast, ship. Own meaningful slices of a system reaching every user.
