Senior Backend Engineer - job 1 of 2

About Us

Alembic is where top engineers are solving marketing's hardest problem: proving what actually works. If you're looking for frontier technical challenges at an applied science company, this is the place.

At Alembic, we're not just building software, we're decoding the chaos of modern marketing. Join Alembic to build trusted systems that Fortune 100 companies use to make multimillion dollar decisions.

We're backed by leading tech luminaries including WndrCo (founded by DreamWorks founder Jeffrey Katzenberg), Jensen Huang, Joe Montana, and many more.

About the Role

As a Senior Backend Engineer at Alembic, you'll tackle some of the hardest technical challenges in marketing analytics while building systems that Fortune 100 companies trust for multimillion-dollar decisions. You'll have significant technical autonomy and influence over our platform architecture, working with cutting-edge AI/ML algorithms in a fast-growing environment where your code directly impacts business outcomes.

What You'll Do

  • Architect, design, and develop scalable backend services and APIs that power our marketing analytics platform

  • Build high-performance data processing pipelines that handle massive datasets with sub-second response times

  • Design and optimize database schemas and queries for complex analytical workloads

  • Collaborate closely with our AI/ML team to productionize cutting-edge algorithms

  • Guide technical decision-making and help define Alembic's backend engineering best practices

  • Mentor junior and mid-level engineers, fostering a strong technical culture

  • Contribute to hiring and shaping the engineering team as we scale

Why You Might Be Excited About Alembic

  • Hard problems with real impact: You'll tackle the hardest challenges in marketing analytics while building systems that influence multimillion-dollar decisions at Fortune 100 companies

  • Technical autonomy: You want ownership over technical decisions and the freedom to solve complex problems your way

  • Cutting-edge technology: Work with advanced AI/ML algorithms, composite AI solutions, private NVIDIA DGX clusters, and the latest in data processing at scale

  • Elite team: Join top engineers who thrive on challenging problems and high-impact work

  • Startup upside: Early-stage equity opportunity with experienced leadership and proven product-market fit

Why You Might Not Be Excited

  • If you only want to tell people what to build instead of building and coding alongside them, we're not the environment for you

  • You prefer company practices with 100% built-out process for every detail

  • You prefer static over dynamic. Projects, priorities, and roles will adapt to your skill set and goals. Though we have real paying customers and a playbook for growth, we proudly remain an early-stage startup
