• Customers across CPG, retail, healthcare, mobile apps, fintech, insurance, and consumer services. Marquee customers include Johnson & Johnson,, and SciPlay..

What You Will Do:

• Design, build, and own the scalable backend systems and APIs that power our entire AutoML platform turning raw customer data into production-ready predictive models that sit at the heart of Pecan’s product.
• Architect asynchronous, event-driven pipelines using message queues to orchestrate long-running, distributed machine learning training and inference jobs across multiple servers and cloud environments.
• Take end-to-end ownership of your microservices: you will architect, code, deploy, monitor, and continuously improve them in production.
• Tackle fascinating technical challenges at the intersection of extreme scale and the complex, uncharted territory of AutoML and real-world inference.

What You Need (Required):

• 6+ years of experience building high-performance, scalable server-side systems in production environments.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems, event-driven architectures, message queues, and eventual consistency patterns.
• Proven experience designing and running microservices that process and manage large-scale data pipelines reliably and efficiently.
• Hands-on experience with large databases, caching layers, and major cloud platforms.
• A fast-learning, “can-do” mindset. You thrive on solving complex problems, take full ownership, and are a true team player with zero ego.

Bonus Points (Nice to Have):

• Direct experience designing, training, or deploying machine learning models.
• Familiarity with MLOps practices model artifact management, preventing data leakage, model explainability, drift detection, and production model monitoring.
