Company Description:

Backed by renowned investors who share our vision of virtualizing the built environment by leveraging cutting-edge AI solutions. Born out of MIT, our founders are technology and analytics experts, and we're seeking like-minded individuals who are passionate about computer vision, the built environment, and eager to make a significant impact.

Job Description:

We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Backend Engineer to join our team at Hosta.ai. In this hybrid role, you will play a pivotal role in the development and scaling of our pipeline, leveraging a serverless architecture on AWS, along with the use of Computer Vision (CV) and 3D reconstruction. While a background in CV and 3D reconstruction, as well as proficiency in Python programming, are advantageous, they are not mandatory.

Tasks:

1. Make a substantial impact on the development and build and deployment aspects of our pipeline, transitioning it into a series of easily deployable and scalable steps on AWS using CV models and 3D reconstruction in some steps and integration with 3rd party APIs in the others.
2. Write high-quality, scalable, and efficient code in Python.
3. Lead your own projects and collaborate with team members, offering valuable contributions and feedback.
4. Translate software requirements into stable, high-performance applications.
5. Engage in brainstorming sessions, providing insights into technology, algorithms, and product development.
6. Enhance code quality through rigorous testing, automation, and code reviews.
7. Play a major role in architecting our AWS CloudFormation for building and deploying systems.
8. Manage AWS services and serverless architecture for optimal performance and scalability.
9. Undertake additional responsibilities as assigned.

Skills & Experience:

1. 6+ years of hands-on experience in backend, full-stack, or software testing technologies.
2. Proficient in AWS CloudFormation for building and deploying systems.
3. Extensive experience with AWS services and serverless architecture or similar cloud based technologies.

Nice to Have:

1. Experience with Computer Vision or other AI technologies.
2. AWS Step Functions.
3. Experience and/or familiarity with the subjects of deep learning/3D modeling/graphics.

Benefits:

You will work in a highly intellectual environment. We maintain a team spirit, intellectual curiosity, and fun even in a virtual environment. We are well funded to work on the hard things that matter in accomplishing our vision. On top of that, we offer:

1. Equity eligible for this position.
2. Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
3. Health, Vision, and Dental Insurance, including expert medical opinion.
4. Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts.
5. Flexible paid time off (unlimited or accrued vacation and sick leave).
6. Life Insurance.
7. 401k.

Ideally we are looking for someone local but we can be open to fully remote (US-based). For those local, we work in a hybrid environment, splitting time between our office in Cambridge, MA, and home.
