Software Engineer

Company Description InfiniMind is a video reasoning platform that turns raw footage into enterprise decisions. We process video at scale — running our own models, not wrapping third-party APIs — and deliver results that companies act on with confidence. Founded by ex-Googlers, backed by world-class VCs, with paying enterprise customers and global expansion underway. We're looking for a generalist engineer who can operate autonomously across the entire stack — infrastructure, backend services, data pipelines, and AI integration — and ship production systems without waiting for specs. What you will own Video processing pipelines — ingest, segment, and orchestrate analysis across multi-service architectures handling hours of footage dailyML inference infrastructure — serve custom models in production with GPU scheduling, manage throughput and latency at enterprise scaleEvent-driven backend systems — design and maintain the services, queues, and workflows that connect upload through indexing to real-time querySearch and retrieval — vector search, hybrid ranking, and evidence retrieval across large-scale video librariesInfrastructure — Kubernetes on AWS, observability, CI/CD, and the operational health of production services serving real customersArchitecture decisions — you'll shape how the platform evolves, not just execute tickets First 90 Days Week 1: Working dev environment, deploying to staging, first PR merged.Month 1: Ship a meaningful improvement to an existing pipeline or service.
