    Job description

    Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.

    Since public launch, Emergent has crossed $100M in ARR and grown to over 10M users across 190+ countries. We're backed by Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.

    We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.

    We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.

    What You'll Do:

    • Build and maintain scalable, high-performance backend services
    • Write clean, efficient code in Python and Go
    • Design and optimize systems for speed, reliability, and distributed scale
    • Work closely with ML, Infra, and Frontend teams to ship end-to-end features
    • Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and tech planning
    • Solve complex systems problems and contribute to architectural decisions

    What We're Looking For:

    • 3 to 7 years of backend or systems development experience
    • Proficient in Python and/or Go
    • Strong grasp of distributed systems, concurrency, and performance optimization
    • Experience building APIs, microservices, or cloud-native apps
    • Familiar with Git, CI/CD workflows, and monitoring tools
    • Comfortable working in fast-paced, collaborative environments

    Good to Have:

    • Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, or cloud infra (AWS/GCP)
    • Familiarity with message queues, caching, or databases at scale
    • Exposure to ML/AI engineering or infra-related tooling
    • Contributions to open-source or side projects

    Why Join Us:

    • Build next-gen tools for 1B+ creators
    • Work with a high-caliber, maker-first team
    • Competitive comp and equity
    • Fast learning, real impact, and clear growth path

    Benefits and Perks:

    1. Daily Meals: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner provided
    2. Family Insurance: 5 Lakhs worth of coverage for you and your family
    3. Unlimited Paid Time Off: Take the time you need to recharge and come back refreshed
    4. Flexible Working Hours: Work arrangements that fit your life and commitments

    Let's build the future of software together.
