Parakeet is the AI‑powered risk & compliance platform built for industrial enterprises. Our agent‑driven workflows cut third‑party verification and risk‑management costs by up to 50 %, unifying data from devices, vendors, and internal systems into a single source of truth.

The Role

We’re expanding our core engineering team with a pragmatic full‑stack engineer who can ship production‑ready features end‑to‑end. You’ll own services across the stack—from REST/GraphQL APIs to responsive front‑end components—and help scale a platform processing millions of risk events per day.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and maintain backend services in Node.js (TypeScript) and Python

  • Model and optimize relational data in PostgreSQL; write efficient, migration‑safe SQL

  • Integrate and tune QStash/Upstash queues for event‑driven workloads and background jobs

  • Deploy, secure, and monitor workloads on Cloudflare Workers/Durable Objects, Pages, and R2

  • Build modern, testable UI components (React + TypeScript) that surface complex compliance data simply

  • Collaborate with product, design, and data teams to translate requirements into shippable code

  • Write unit, integration, and end‑to‑end tests; enforce CI/CD and code‑review best practices

  • Profile, debug, and harden systems for security, performance, and reliability in regulated environments

Minimum Qualifications

  • 3+ years professional experience building and operating production web services

  • Proficiency with Node.js and at least one Python web framework (FastAPI, Flask, Django, etc.)

  • Solid grasp of SQL, database schema design, and query optimization on PostgreSQL

  • Experience with message queues, pub/sub, or event streams (e.g., QStash, Kafka, RabbitMQ)

  • Familiarity with edge‑compute or serverless platforms (Cloudflare, AWS Lambda, Vercel, etc.)

  • Comfortable with modern front‑end frameworks (React a plus) and TypeScript

  • Track record of shipping features in an agile environment with code reviews and automated testing

  • English proficiency at B2 level or higher (CEFR)

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to compliance, fintech, or industrial IoT data pipelines

  • Knowledge of AI/LLM integration patterns or vector search (e.g., pgvector)

  • Security‑first mindset (OWASP, secure SDLC) and experience with SOC 2 or ISO 27001 controls

Why Parakeet

  • Mission‑driven team tackling a multibillion‑dollar pain point in risk & compliance

  • Green‑field engineering challenges at scale—edge compute, real‑time analytics, and AI agents

  • Competitive salary, meaningful equity, health benefits, and remote‑first culture

  • Autonomy to shape architecture, processes, and ultimately the direction of the product
