Job details:
Xuman.AI is hiring a Founding Backend Engineer. Remote (India). Immediate joiners only.
Xuman.AI is an operating system that turns content into instant booking, designed for human-led services.
On the surface, it collapses fragmented workflows into one system. Underneath, we are building something far deeper: The Human Experience Engine, our Persona Compatibility layer. This engine matches the right person with the right fit at the right time, based on who they are, what they want, and how they connect.
The founder's vision is to layer cognitive science into human persona compatibility, leading to hyper-personalized, real-time human connections.
Xuman.AI is the productization of the founder's previous bootstrapped venture: ideation, market research, pilots, MVP, and a technical foundation built to scale. The product is built and moving toward launch. Distribution is in motion.
What makes this seat different: you head a vertical from day one. Not a ticket queue, not a module. The platform itself: the services and the money path of a live product.
What you'll own:
- The microservice estate: bookings, payments, ledger, payouts, auth, notifications, and more
- Money correctness: every charge, refund, and payout is exact, at scale
- Booking reliability: the lifecycle that never loses a session
- Production deploys and monitoring, hand in hand with the team
Must have:
- NestJS or Node + TypeScript services in production, on PostgreSQL (Prisma or similar)
- Real API design: REST, idempotency, transactions, and webhooks that survive duplicates
- Async and queue-based work: Service Bus, RabbitMQ, SQS or similar
- 3 to 5 years of experience across startups and corporate, internships count
- You use AI tools (Claude, Copilot, ChatGPT) daily to write, debug, and ship faster. Not optional, this is how we work.
Strong plus:
- Payment systems: Stripe, ledgers, reconciliation, payout flows
- Redis, caching, and real-time (Socket.IO) backends
- Microservices or multi-service monorepo experience: our estate is 16 services on one schema
- Geo queries: PostGIS or similar, behind location-based provider search
- Azure (Container Apps, Service Bus) or any major cloud, Docker, CI/CD
- Monitoring and incident discipline: Sentry, health checks, alerts
Our process respects your time: apply, one interview, one 4-hour build test, and terms the same week. No six rounds.
Compensation, salary, and equity are discussed directly in our conversation, not in a post.
This is not simply a job. It is a seat you hold from day one on a live product as it moves into distribution.
If this seat reads like yours, apply with confidence. Every application is read personally.
