Job Description

Hiring remains slow, manual, and biased, even in 2025. Octopyd is changing that. We’re building AI-native systems that source, evaluate, and engage talent automatically, giving recruiters “super-powers” and giving candidates a fairer shot. The software you build will sit at the heart of this transformation: orchestrating large-scale LLM pipelines, real-time ranking engines, and delightful recruiter workflows that make filling a role 10× faster. What you’ll do (if you lean backend ) Architect cloud-native services that connect LLM evaluation engines, ATS integrations, and high-throughput data pipelines. Design distributed systems that score millions of résumés in minutes with high availability, low latency, and strict privacy controls. Build streaming and batch pipelines for candidate data, interview events, and outreach metrics. Own infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD so experiments ship to production safely and often. What you’ll do (if you lean frontend ) Craft a next-generation recruiter workspace—think “Figma meets ATS”—using modern TypeScript and open-source frameworks. Visualize deep candidate insights (skill graphs, interview scores, diversity metrics) in snappy, interactive UIs. Collaborate closely with backend and ML teams to surface AI recommendations in real time. What you bring 3+ years of professional software development, with deep expertise in either backend or frontend. A record of shipping production systems at scale—focused on performance, resilience, and usability. Strong coding skills in languages that fit your stack (Go or Python on the backend; TypeScript/React on the frontend). A collaborative mindset and the curiosity to work across product, ML, and design. A passion for building tools that make other people wildly more effective. Experience with recruiting/HCM, ATS integrations, or HR analytics. Hands-on knowledge of LLM fine-tuning or retrieval-augmented generation. Background in high-volume data processing, event-driven architectures, or graph databases. Prior success scaling engineering teams in a startup environment. Clear, concise technical writing and diagramming chops. What it’s like here Octopyd is a fast-moving, high-trust AI startup. You’ll partner with top engineers, data scientists, and talent-ops experts to solve hard problems at the intersection of cloud, ML, and human workflows. We value ownership, rapid experimentation, and a “bring the data” mindset. If you’re excited to reinvent how the world hires, you’ll feel right at home. Logistics Location: Hybrid hubs in Bay Area, CA (US), three days in-office, two days remote. Fully-remote option within US for exceptional candidates. Visa sponsorship: We welcome H-1B transfers and other employment-based visas. How to apply Don’t meet every single requirement? Feel over-qualified? No problem—if our mission energizes you, we want to hear from you. Octopyd is growing fast and needs world-class engineers at many experience levels. Apply with your résumé, GitHub (or equivalent), and a brief note on which path—backend, frontend, or both—gets you fired up.
