Senior Backend Engineer (AI-Native) – Autify Aximo

📋 Description

• • Join Autify, Inc., a pioneering San Francisco-based startup at the forefront of AI-powered software testing, and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of enterprise-grade automated testing solutions. We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior Backend Engineer (AI-Native) to spearhead the development of our on-premise version of Aximo, our groundbreaking AI tester. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a product that is revolutionizing how businesses approach software quality assurance in an era of rapid development cycles and increasing demand for agile methodologies.
• • The global software market is experiencing unprecedented change, with an overwhelming 92% of developer teams adopting agile development, and a significant 71% aiming for weekly or more frequent releases. In this fast-paced environment, manual verification is no longer a viable option, creating an urgent and substantial need for robust automation solutions. Autify is positioned to meet this critical challenge, offering clients a distinct competitive advantage in their software development lifecycle. The global QA market is projected to exceed $1 trillion, and we are strategically expanding our international presence to capture a significant share of this vast opportunity.
• • As a Senior Backend Engineer on the Aximo team, you will be instrumental in designing, developing, and deploying secure, scalable, and high-performance server-side services. Your responsibilities will encompass the core backend infrastructure that powers our AI testing capabilities, ensuring seamless integration and operation within enterprise environments. This includes architecting and implementing the AI worker processes that execute complex testing scenarios, leveraging cutting-edge AI and machine learning models to interpret natural language commands and perform visual recognition for test automation.
• • A significant aspect of this role involves developing and maintaining a robust Remote Control Agent. This agent will be crucial for enabling high-fidelity automated testing across both web and desktop application environments. You will be responsible for ensuring the agent is secure, reliable, and capable of interacting seamlessly with diverse desktop applications, providing our enterprise clients with comprehensive testing coverage.
• • You will collaborate closely with product leads to translate business requirements and user needs into technical specifications and architectural designs. Working alongside our talented AI/ML engineers, you will ensure the efficient integration and deployment of AI models within the backend services. Furthermore, you will partner with site reliability engineers (SREs) to establish best practices for deployment, monitoring, and operational excellence, ensuring the Aximo on-premise solution is stable, scalable, and maintainable.
• • This role demands a deep understanding of distributed systems, microservices architecture, and secure coding practices. You will be expected to tackle complex system challenges, optimize performance, and contribute to the overall technical strategy for the on-premise offering. Your contributions will directly impact the ability of our enterprise customers to deploy and operate Aximo entirely within their own secure infrastructure, meeting stringent compliance and data privacy requirements.
• • Autify's mission is to empower people's creativity through technology. By joining us, you will be part of a dynamic and innovative team that is pushing the boundaries of what's possible in software testing. You will have the opportunity to work with a cutting-edge AI-native product, contribute to its growth and success, and make a tangible impact on the global software development landscape. We are looking for engineers who are passionate about building robust, scalable, and intelligent systems, and who thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced startup environment. Your expertise will be key in delivering an exceptional on-premise testing solution that empowers our clients to achieve unparalleled levels of software quality and development velocity.
