ABOUT AIRAWATH
Airawath is an AI-powered e-invitation and event platform. People describe
the celebration they're planning; we generate the invitation design, deliver
it over SMS, email, and push, track RSVPs, and run the gift registry around
it. Elie, our recommendation layer, helps guests find the right gift.
We're a growing in-house engineering team working directly with the founders.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Problems here don't arrive divided into frontend and backend tickets. You'll
own features end to end — understand the user problem, design the schema,
build the APIs and the interface, integrate the AI layer, deploy it, and
measure whether it changed anything. You'll own systems rather than a queue,
and you'll have the latitude to decide how they get built.
RESPONSIBILITIES
In your first year you'd likely own two or three of these outright:
• AI invitation generation. The text-to-image pipeline behind every design —
prompt construction, model selection, cost and latency per generation, and
the eval loop that tells us whether output quality actually moved.
• Notification delivery. One invitation fans out to SMS, email, and push
across timezones. Deliverability, retries, idempotency, and the telemetry
that proves a guest was genuinely reached.
• Credits and payments. The credit economy behind AI generation, and the
payments layer on top of it. Money code — the highest bar in the codebase.
• Elie, gift discovery. Parameter-based and conversational recommendation
over a live product catalogue. Retrieval, structured outputs, and the
judgment to know when an answer shouldn't come from a model at all.
For any of them you'd write the migration, the API, the web surface, the AI
layer, the deployment, and the dashboard that says whether it worked.
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
• Production React, TypeScript, and Next.js. You've shipped and then
maintained real interfaces, not just built them once.
• Production Python, including async. Our backend is FastAPI on SQLAlchemy
2.0 async, where the interesting problems are session and transaction
semantics rather than syntax.
• PostgreSQL judgment. Schema design, relationships, indexing, and the
ability to read a query plan. We hand-write SQL migrations and apply them
to a live production database.
• You've shipped an LLM-powered feature that real people used. Not a demo —
you can speak to what it cost per call, where it failed, and how you knew
it was working.
• You've deployed and debugged your own code in production. AWS (EC2, RDS,
S3), Docker, and CI. When something breaks at 11pm, you're the one reading
the logs.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
• AI agent or multi-agent workflows; RAG, embeddings, vector search, and
retrieval evaluation.
• Evaluation frameworks for LLM accuracy, reliability, latency, and cost.
• Flutter or native mobile development — we have a mobile app, and you'd
occasionally touch it.
• Streaming and real-time systems: WebSockets, server-sent events, voice.
• Redis, queues, event-driven architectures, AWS Lambda or ECS.
• Observability, logging, monitoring, and production analytics.
• Early-stage startup experience, or open-source and independently launched
work.
HOW WE WORK
• Own the outcome. You're accountable for whether the feature worked, not
whether it shipped. Everything you own gets a metric you chose.
• Short decision paths, real review discipline. You don't need a committee
to pick an approach. But anything touching money, authentication, or
migrations gets read line by line — yours and ours.
• AI by default. Cursor, Claude Code, Codex — whatever gets you there. We
care that you know where the tools are unreliable, not that you use them.
• Keep it practical. The simplest reliable thing that creates impact. We'd
rather delete code than add a layer.
