高级后端工程师
Senior Backend Engineer
高级后端工程师 / 架构师
ImagineArt · 远程 · 全职
关于职位
我们是一个自筹资金的生成式AI平台，提供大规模的图像和视频生成服务——服务财富500强客户，年收入超过3500万美元，流量增长迅速。我们需要一位以系统思维而非仅服务思维思考的后端工程师。你将负责我们生成流程、推理编排以及保持低延迟同时应对高流量的基础设施架构。
这是一个需要亲自动手的架构师职位。你将设计并编写代码，而不仅仅是绘制图表。
你会做什么
- 设计并负责处理高吞吐量、异步工作负载的后端系统（生成队列、工作者编排、媒体处理）
- 为可扩展性和可靠性进行架构设计——你将决定数据流、服务边界和故障处理策略
- 构建和优化异步流程：任务队列、重试、背压、死信处理，以及所有保持数百万请求流动的要素
- 在基础设施层面提升性能和降低成本——推理成本高昂，效率在这里是一项产品特性
- 通过评审和指导提高团队工程标准，设定技术方向
我们寻找的人
- 有扎实的后端经验（5年以上），在大规模生产系统中拥有实际主导经验
- 有实际的系统设计能力——你能用权衡而不是术语来证明你的架构决策
- 有异步流程、消息队列（Kafka、RabbitMQ、SQS或类似工具）和分布式工作者的实际操作经验
- 能够在高并发、高吞吐量环境中工作
- 能够在快速、低流程、自筹资金的环境中独立工作
加分项
- 有Go语言经验（或愿意使用Go语言——我们后端主要使用Go）
- 接触过机器学习/AI基础设施、GPU工作负载或媒体处理流程
- 有开源项目贡献记录（我们会关注GitHub上的信号）
为什么选择ImagineArt
- 真实的收入，真实的用户，没有风投的节奏——决策由工程师和创始人快速做出
- 在AI和可扩展性交汇处真正困难的技术问题
- 完全远程，全职

Senior Backend Engineer / Architect
ImagineArt · Remote · Full-Time
About the role
We're a bootstrapped GenAI platform serving image and video generation at real scale — Fortune 500 clients, $35M+ ARR, and traffic that doesn't wait for you to catch up. We need a backend engineer who thinks in systems, not just services. You'll own the architecture behind our generation pipelines, inference orchestration, and the infrastructure that keeps latency low while volume climbs.
This is a hands-on architect role. You will design and write code, not just draw diagrams.
What you'll do
- Design and own backend systems that handle high-throughput, asynchronous workloads (generation queues, worker orchestration, media processing)
- Architect for scale and reliability — you'll make the calls on data flow, service boundaries, and failure handling
- Build and optimize async pipelines: job queuing, retries, backpressure, dead-letter handling, and everything that keeps millions of requests moving
- Improve performance and cost at the infrastructure level — inference is expensive, and efficiency is a product feature here
- Set technical direction and raise the engineering bar for the team through review and mentorship
What we're looking for
- Strong backend experience (5+ years) with real ownership of production systems at scale
- Proven system design skills — you can defend your architecture decisions with tradeoffs, not buzzwords
- Hands-on experience with asynchronous pipelines, message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQS, or similar), and distributed workers
- Comfort with high-concurrency, high-throughput environments
- Ability to work independently in a fast, low-process, bootstrapped environment
Nice to have
- Experience with Go (or willingness to work in it — we lean on Go for backend)
- Exposure to ML/AI infrastructure, GPU workloads, or media processing pipelines
- Track record contributing to open source (we look at GitHub signal)
Why ImagineArt
- Real revenue, real users, no VC treadmill — decisions are made by engineers and founders, fast
- Genuinely hard technical problems at the intersection of AI and scale
- Fully remote, full-time
