Engineering Lead, Full Stack (Hands-on) в потужний стартап to $7000

Вітаю тебе, фахівець \0/

Мене звати Кирил, я допомагаю зібрати дрім тім для своїх друзів з Hooh – це стартап від фаундерів Depositphotos. Команда сіньорна та досвідчена, тому опортʼюніті, ІМХО, дуже кльове.

отже

Hooh – це b2c AI-продукт, який робить складні документи простими для розуміння та дій. 

Він дозволяє завантажувати файли (PDF, фото, скани), автоматично розпізнавати їхній вміст, витягувати ключову інформацію та отримувати короткі, зрозумілі підсумки.
 

Ми успішно випустили v1, підтвердивши нашу основну AI-пайплайн-архітектуру. Зараз ми розширюємо продукт до “scanner-grade” PDF-досвіду, що поєднує глибоке AI-розуміння з надійним редагуванням документів.

Далі дозволю собі перемкнутись на англійську, бо мова піде про конкретні речі.
 

_________________

We are hiring a hands-on Engineering Lead (Full Stack) to own the Hooh engineering system end-to-end – architecture, reliability, and delivery. 
You will lead a small, high-output team (Backend, Full Stack, Applied AI, and iOS) while serving as a "player-coach".
 

You will architect and integrate Hooh’s end-to-end AI document understanding pipeline covering OCR, extraction, and conversational Q&A, paired with robust document manipulation capabilities.
 

This role could grow into Head of Engineering or CTO as the team scales.

Key Responsibilities

• End-to-End System Ownership
  • Own the entire pipeline: document ingest → processing (OCR/extraction) → AI workflows → APIs → iOS/web experiences.
  • Design and evolve API surfaces for document ingestion and AI-driven summarization.
• Architecture & Execution
  • Define service boundaries, API contracts, data models, and rollout patterns that keep the system coherent as the product surface area grows.
  • Engage in design reviews that span service decomposition and weigh CAP trade-offs.
• Hands-on Engineering
  • Ship core features across backend and web (React/Next.js/Node.js).
  • Unblock teammates and set the quality bar through exemplary PRs and technical decisions.
  • Optimize frontend hydration, bundle-splitting, and rendering concurrency.
• Reliability & Trust
  • Ensure reliability by design: idempotency, non-blocking execution, and horizontal scalability across worker clusters.
  • Implement security best practices around authentication, encryption, and secure data handling.
• Team Leadership
  • Improve delivery cadence through clear ownership, strong reviews, and pragmatic processes – keeping the team moving fast with confidence.

What We’re Looking For

• 5–7 years shipping production systems, with a strong preference for startup or high-ownership environments.
• Full-Stack Fluency: Deep expertise in TypeScript/JavaScript across backend (Node.js/Express) and frontend (React/Next.js).
• Database Depth: Advanced literacy in Postgres/MySQL, including schema evolution, query planning under load, read/write splitting, and connection pool tuning.
• Cloud & Infra: Proficiency with AWS/GCP/Azure, containers (Docker/K8s), CI/CD, and IaC (Terraform/CDK).
• Async Architectures: Experience with message queues (Kafka/SQS) and background job frameworks.
• Product Judgment: Ability to balance speed, quality, and architecture without over-engineering.
• Communication: Clear communicator who can align a small team and keep execution crisp.

Nice to Have Experience With

• Mobile-first products (especially iOS integration constraints and API versioning).
• Building PDF/document tooling (rendering, editing operations, performance at scale).
• Operationalizing AI/LLM features in production (evaluation, guardrails, monitoring).

The Team

• CEO
• Product Manager
• Team Lead Dev
• Fullstack Dev 
• Front-end Dev
• Prompt engineer 
• ML/Data Scientist
• User Acquisition Manager
• 2х Designers 
• 2x iOS Devs

What We Offer

• Challenging technical problems and the environment to solve them.
• A clear growth path into Head of Engineering/CTO at a later stage.
• Direct influence on strategy and the ability to see your experiments ship fast.
• Be part of a team that previously built and scaled successful businesses.
• Flexible schedule and fully remote work from anywhere with reliable overlap to CET.
• 18 paid vacation days, 8 no-paperwork sick days, and 11 public holidays per year.
• Minimal bureaucracy, high trust, fast decisions.
