SlideSpeak is an AI Presentation Platform focused saving companies and individuals time and money. We've generated over 10 million presentations this year and are growing at an insane pace.
We're looking for a motivated Software Engineer who wants to make a significant impact. As part of our small but growing team of 10, your work will directly influence the core product, enhancing our offering at a global scale. We're building out a one-of-a-kind AI-first presentation editor, so we hope you like working with 2D graphics.
Key Responsibilities:
Build and maintain backend services using Python, FastAPI, and other frameworks
Develop and optimize front-end editor with NextJS, React, and TypeScript
Develop LLM and ML services to generate content for presentations (images, infographics, icons, content, ...)
Collaborate on database management and query optimization
Contribute to all phases of the development lifecycle, from design to deployment
About you
You're eager to learn and contribute meaningfully to a product that's changing how millions of people create presentations.
You move fast and can adapt quickly. We've entered a phase of growth where there is more work to do than there are people to do it - this means everyone on the team will be busy, but there are also countless opportunities to grow personally and make progress towards your goals.
You have a high quality bar for your work, even when moving quickly. As we scale our teams and customer base, the expectations of our software rises with it.
You're looking for teammates, not coworkers - folks you can learn from and grow with at SlideSpeak, and beyond.
Skills & Qualifications
Degree in Computer Science or a related field
Full Stack Development experience
Great Product Sense
Proficiency in NextJS, React, TypeScript
Proficiency in backend frameworks (Python or similar)
Experience working with SQL
Familiarity with cloud services (AWS, GCP, Azure) and server management via shell
Practical experience through internships or personal projects
Nice to have
Experience with Python backends, FastAPI, and RAG frameworks like LangChain, Llama Index
Knowledge of vector databases and advanced database management systems
Knowledge of 2D graphics editors and SVG (yep, it gets quite nitty gritty)
Previous experience in fast-paced startup environments
Tech Stack
Frontend: NextJS, Zustand, Tailwind, Prisma
Backend: Python, Temporal, FastAPI, Llama Index
Database: PostgreSQL, PGVector
LLMs & AI: Azure OpenAI, Google Gemini Flash, Replica
Fully remote work environment with flexible scheduling
Company-provided laptop and software budget tailored to your needs
Budget for attending industry conferences (AI Engineer, Figma Config, WebSummit, etc.)
Extraordinary quarterly fully-paid trips across Europe and globally, including accommodations and flights, to foster team bonding and creativity (our next trips are to SF and Lisbon)
WeWork membership
Interview Process
Initial Screening Call: 15-minutes, details on the role, questions to assess initial fit
Technical Coding Challenge: Showcase your coding skills and problem-solving abilities with a case that we send you.
Skill Deep Dive: 45-minutes: In-depth assessment of your drivers, work ethic, and goals to determine mutual fit
Cultural Fit with Founder/CEO & Founding Engineer (45-minutes)
I don't see why anyone would pay for what this startup does. You can easily build this yourself in 2 hours but serverless by double-dipping NextJS, Tailwind, Jest, Gatsby, Enzyme and Webpack on top of Kubernetes in a Docker VM on AWS.
