Come for the code, stay for the impact.

At Package.ai, we’re not just building software, we’re changing how retailers connect with their customers. From the first website chat to the final doorstep delivery and everything in between, we power meaningful, personalized journeys that keep people coming back.

With a platform trusted by over 100 retailers (and growing fast), strong product-market fit, and real momentum, we’re scaling up - and looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to help us take things to the next level.
  • You love clean, efficient backend code and take pride in solid architecture.

  • You’re comfortable owning projects end-to-end and thrive with real responsibility.

  • You see the bigger picture - how your code supports the product, the customer, and the business.

  • You're curious, collaborative, and like solving tough problems without taking yourself too seriously.

  • Design and build scalable backend systems that power real-time interactions.

  • Take full ownership - from planning and implementation to deployment and monitoring.

  • Work with a modern stack: Kotlin, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, and more.

  • Help shape the technical direction of a growing, product-led company.

  • 5+ years of backend production experience with Kotlin, Java, Scala, Go (Kotlin is a strong plus).

  • Experience in fast-moving startup environments, where things ship fast and ownership runs deep.

  • Solid hands-on experience with both NoSQL and relational databases.

  • Experience with AWS and containerization tools (Docker, Kubernetes).

  • Bonus: familiarity with Rust, CI/CD, ML/NLP, or DevOps practices.

  • Extra credit: experience building or orchestrating multi-agent AI systems (e.g., LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen) to coordinate LLM-based workflows.

  • Bonus: hands-on work with agent orchestration or autonomous AI frameworks that enable tool use and inter-agent communication.

  • Strong communication skills and solid English - written and spoken.

At Package.ai, you won’t be just another engineer. You’ll be a key player in a tight-knit team, working on a product that’s genuinely changing the way businesses operate and grow.
