Job Description:

Your Role in Our Mission:At Normal, we are working to get our state-of-the-art ML research into the hands of our first enterprise customers. We are looking for a senior software engineer to join four other people on our product engineering team. We call this a full-stack role because you will need to understand how your decisions impact our product from end-to-end, though your day-to-day work will be backend heavy. Among other things, it will involve:

• Designing, building, and operating the backend components required for an enterprise SaaS product: everything from CI / CD, authn / authz, alerting, and monitoring to database integration, internal library development, etc.
• Collaborating with team members and other stakeholders on various aspects of the project: brainstorming, technical design, and review.
• Helping our MLE team shape their vision so that it can be realized for our clients.What Makes You A Great Fit:
• Startup experience, growing with an engineering org from around 2 engineers to 25+.
• An affinity for building and operating the foundational components of a product tech stack. We are going from zero to one: much is being written from scratch!
• A bias toward fast iteration and experimentation over perfectionism.
• Experience with Python and PostgreSQL.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills. (We are a global company which believes in strong in-person culture at its hubs.)Bonus Points ForWondering how to make your resume stand out? Some things we'd love to know:
• What is your "nerd snipe Achilles heel?" Distributed systems? Type systems? PLT? LLMs?
• We know you could get a job at a FAANG shop, but you're seeking out a startup instead. Why?
• Do you have experience working alongside researchers? If so, what was that like?Every engineer approaches their craft through their own lens. Show us the world through yours!
