Passionate Full-Stack Developer
We're solving a $75B problem: enterprise document chaos. We ship production AI that untangles regulated knowledge at scale and survives audits. Bootstrapped, soon-to-be profitable, 10 people, compounding fast.
Who are we looking for?
Sky AI is looking for an AI-driven, inspired developer who thinks in systems, not features. You'll build the infrastructure that processes millions of insurance claims, medical records, and legal documents with AI that actually understands context. 80% backend mastery where you architect serverless workflows that scale, 20% frontend finesse to ship complete experiences. AI development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Devin) aren't optional - they're how you'll ship 10x faster than traditional development.
Tech stack that scales
Backend (where the magic happens):
- Node.js/TypeScript + AWS Lambda/Step Functions for serverless that actually works
- SQS & EventBridge for bulletproof event-driven architecture
- RAG systems that understand documents, not just keywords
- PostgreSQL for structure, DynamoDB for scale - use the right tool
- Prisma ORM because raw SQL shouldn't be your day job
Frontend (if any):
- React/TypeScript with Feature-Slice Design for maintainable scale
- React Query for data that just works
- Tailwind + Shadcn UI for interfaces that don't make users cry
AI acceleration is a MUST:
- Gemini and Claude Code CLI tools
- Cursor and Windsurf IDE
- Devin and OpenAI Codex agents - AI tools that make coding feel unfair.
Infrastructure & AI acceleration:
- Terraform for infrastructure that deploys itself
- GitHub Actions, Docker, CloudWatch for the critical-but-boring stuff
Ideal candidate
You're perfect if you have:
- 5-7 years building backend systems that don't break under enterprise load
- Deep AWS serverless expertise (Lambda, Step Functions, SQS, EventBridge)
- Hands-on experience with AI development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Devin)
- Database mastery: PostgreSQL for relationships, DynamoDB for performance
- Enough React/TypeScript to ship complete features without handoffs
- Thrive in async, remote environments with minimal supervision
- Genuinely excited about AI transforming work - not just riding the hype
Beneficial:
- Experience with document processing pipelines (PDF, DOCX, OCR)
- RAG system implementation and optimization
- Terraform infrastructure management
- Healthcare/legal document processing domain knowledge
- Performance optimization for high-volume document processing
- Real-time features implementation (WebSockets)
- Testing strategies for full-stack applications
- Security best practices: SOC2, HIPAA compliance
What you'll actually build
- Document processing that scales: AWS Lambda workflows handling millions of PDFs, medical records, legal documents without breaking a sweat
- Event-driven architecture: SQS-based systems coordinating complex workflows across microservices
- RAG backends that work: Not just another ChatGPT wrapper - real document understanding and analysis: better outcomes
- APIs built for enterprise: RESTful services that handle Fortune 500 volume and complexity
- Full-stack features: Jump into React when needed to ship complete user experiences
- Performance obsession: Make everything faster, cheaper, more reliable
