We are hiring a Back-End Engineer to help build and ship production features across this stack. You'll work alongside experienced engineers, contribute to real product impact from day one, and grow your skills in a fast-moving, high-ownership environment
Build and ship backend features for Taktile's AI agent platform in Python (FastAPI), deployed on AWS serverless infrastructure
Own your work end-to-end: collaborate on scope, implement, test, release, and iterate based on real usage and customer feedback
Improve how agents run, how they connect to external tools, and how they behave when something goes wrong
Use leading-edge AI tools (e.g. Claude) on a daily basis to move faster, improve quality, and build AI-native capabilities where it makes sense
Review pull requests with depth, improve test coverage and CI/CD, and raise the bar on reliability and engineering excellence
Engage actively in team rituals such as daily syncs, planning sessions, demos, and technical deep-dive discussions
Grow as an individual and accelerate your career by learning from experienced team members, contributing to a foundational layer of the product, and joining cross-team learning groups
For career growth at Taktile, this role will involve daytime ops duty and at some point joining an on-call rotation, so you need to have passion for owning systems end to end and grow your DevSecOps skills as well
