Are you a backend-focused Engineering Manager ready to take ownership of complex distributed systems and shape the direction of a fast-growing AI startup?
This is an incredible opportunity to step into a hands-on leadership role at a company that's redefining the future of fashion and retail through cutting-edge AI, 3D, and real-time rendering. Backed by top-tier investors and industry leaders, the company is gearing up for a major global product launch that will transform how millions of users experience fashion online.
Founded five years ago, they've built one of the most advanced photorealistic virtual try-on platforms in the market. Their technology sits at the intersection of computer vision, rendering, and machine learning, and they're now entering a hyper-growth phase where scalable backend systems and strong engineering leadership are absolutely critical.

* Architect and scale Go microservices powering AI, rendering, and data processing pipelines
* Define engineering standards, drive code quality, and implement best practices across distributed systems
* Partner closely with cross-functional teams to deliver performant, reliable, and scalable backend infrastructure
The Person
* Strong backend engineering experience with deep expertise in Golang and distributed systems
* Proven track record leading teams or projects in fast-moving startup environments
* Skilled with modern cloud and DevOps technologies including AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD
* Hands-on technical leader comfortable owning architecture while staying close to implementation
* Excited by the intersection of AI, 3D, and real-time systems, and motivated to build at global scale
