Our application ecosystem leverages the latest web development paradigms, working among other stacks with modern Python (3.11+), FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, React, Kubernetes while being agnostic of cloud providers.

The platform consists of:

• an intuitive and visually rich web platform where you can create and use document process workflows including AI document understanding endpoints as well as interfaces and automation logic. Create your own account at https://platform.mindee.com to test it yourself;

• a developer REST API handling high realtime throughput of documents accross our worldwide customer base, see https://developers.mindee.com for more information.

As a Senior Backend Engineer you will be joining a growing team of about 20 engineers currently built as follow:

• 1 CTO;

• 4 Backend Engineers;

• 1 Frontend Engineer;

• 2 DevOps Engineers;

• 5 ML Engineers;

• 6 Datascientists;

You will be responsible for:

• Developing and maintaining Mindee’s platform, the daily working tool of our users;

• Developing and maintaining Mindee’s API to support the growing, real-time throughput of documents that flow through it;

• Building the underlying micro-services behind both of them;

• Working constructively within small teams with other Software Engineers and Product to contribute to design and technical ideations and decisions;

• Help other Engineering teams on some of their specific projects with your Software Engineer knowledge.

On top of that, as we use the latest technologies, mostly open-source, we aim at contributing back to the community. Having ongoing open-source contributions is an appreciated plus.
