Software Engineer, Platform

Pocus
Full-time
On-site
San Francisco, California, United States

We’re on a mission to transform how go-to-market teams use data to drive revenue. But, this is just the beginning. Our vision is to 10x every sales rep using AI agents!

We are a series A company, backed by best-in-class investors (First Round & Coatue) and angel investors (COO Notion, CPO Figma, CRO Zapier, CEO dbt, COO Datadog, CEO Postman, CPO Adobe, etc.)

About the role

Pocus is powered by a custom agent-based AI platform that helps our customers ingest, transform, and make sense of structured as well as semi-structured data that can be public or private. The Platform team is responsible for building and scaling this platform. We process multiple gigabytes of data every day through AI powered agents and data orchestration frameworks.

What you’ll do

Pocus’ infrastructure runs on AWS. We use Typescript to develop code and communication happens via GraphQL. We use technologies like Clickhouse, Presto, Temporal, LLMs etc. and have a strong bias towards using managed services wherever possible.

As an engineer on the core platform team, you will

  • Build an AI platform that is scalable, reliable, and extensible: The platform owned by this team forms the basis of everything that our application is built on.

    At a very high level, it includes:

    • A data ingestion layer that supports data extraction from various warehouses, databases, CRMs, public datasets, crawlers, etc.

    • A transformation and relevance engine that enriches this data using LLM based reasoning and tools.

    • A query engine that lets you filter and aggregate these transformed entities in milliseconds

    • A workflow system that lets you act on these results via 3rd party connections like Outreach, Slack etc. or via web-hooks

    You will play a key role in making it feature-rich, stable, and scalable.

  • Have complete autonomy: Extreme autonomy and ownership is how we move so fast. At Pocus, you will have the opportunity to influence every aspect of our product and technology.

  • Build secure systems: Our customers entrust us with a lot of sensitive data, so we take security very seriously at Pocus.

  • Work with best-in-class engineering practices: We take immense pride in the craft of our work. We don’t skimp on things like code review, developer tooling, documentation, testing, etc.

  • Join an incredible team at a magical time: We’re at the beginning stages of explosive growth. Join a passionate, scrappy, and no-ego team of builders that will inspire you every day.

What you bring

We’re a small team of 5 engineers and we like to move really fast. We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has 2+ years of experience building production systems

  • Loves working in small teams with a strong bias for action

  • Is not afraid to jump across domains and technology stacks when needed

  • Is collaborative and a strong communicator

  • Has a knack for problem-solving and thinking from first principles

  • Loves shipping early, learning from real world usage, and iterating

  • Holds a high bar for quality and simplicity and takes pride in their work
