WHAT DO WE DO? Madgicx is transforming how eCommerce brands scale their digital advertising through AI-powered automation and intelligent optimization. Our platform empowers thousands of brands to make smarter marketing decisions, automate complex workflows, and achieve unprecedented ROAS. We’re building the future of autonomous advertising, where AI and human creativity combine to unlock exponential growth. WHY MADGICX NEEDS YOU As a Backend Engineer at Madgicx, you are responsible for building and maintaining the core APIs and services that power our AI-driven advertising platform. You will design resilient, high-performance backend systems that handle millions of advertising operations daily, integrate with multiple advertising platforms, and serve as the foundation for our AI agent ecosystem. This is a hands-on engineering role where you’ll ship production code daily, collaborate closely with AI/ML teams, and directly impact thousands of brands’ advertising performance. What You’ll Own 1. Core API Development - Build and maintain RESTful APIs serving web, mobile, and AI agent clients - Design database schemas and optimize query performance for high-traffic endpoints - Implement authentication, authorization, and rate limiting for secure API access - Write comprehensive tests (unit, integration, E2E) ensuring code quality and reliability 2. Service Integration & Data Pipelines - Integrate with advertising platform APIs (Meta Marketing API, Google Ads API, TikTok Ads) - Build data ingestion pipelines processing campaign metrics, creative performance, and audience insights - Handle webhook processing, event streaming, and asynchronous job processing - Implement retry logic, circuit breakers, and graceful degradation for external service failures 3. AI-Ready Infrastructure - Build backend services that support AI agent workflows and LLM integrations - Design APIs that enable AI agents to query data, execute actions, and receive feedback - Implement observability hooks (tracing, logging, metrics) for AI system monitoring - Collaborate with Data Science teams to productionize ML models and predictions 4. Performance & Scalability - Optimize API response times (P95 <500ms) and database query performance - Implement caching strategies (Redis, CDN) for high-traffic endpoints - Design for horizontal scalability using containerization and orchestration - Monitor system health, troubleshoot production issues, and participate in on-call rotation 5. Code Quality & Collaboration - Write clean, well-documented, and maintainable Python code following team standards - Conduct thorough code reviews providing constructive feedback to peers - Participate in pair programming sessions and knowledge-sharing activities - Contribute to technical documentation, runbooks, and architectural decision records What You’ll Bring Required - Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent experience - 5+ years of production backend development with demonstrable impact on system reliability and performance - Python expertise: Strong proficiency in Python web frameworks (FastAPI, Flask, Django) and async programming - API design: Experience building RESTful APIs with proper versioning, error handling, and documentation (OpenAPI/Swagger) - Database proficiency: SQL expertise (PostgreSQL, MySQL) including schema design, indexing, and query optimization - Cloud infrastructure: Hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform (preferred) or AWS/Azure - GenAI & Agentic Framework familiarity: Practical experience using GenAI tools (GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude) for development, understanding of LLM capabilities/limitations, worked on setting up agentic toolings such as RAG, Guardrails, Feedback loops, planning, MCP’s and orchestration tools etc... - Containerization: Production experience with Docker and Kubernetes for service deployment Non-Negotiable Technical Skills Backend Core Python Web Frameworks (FastAPI, Flask, or Django with async capabilities), SQL Database Design (PostgreSQL schema design, indexing strategies, query optimization), and API Architecture (RESTful design, authentication/authorization, rate limiting, error handling) Cloud & Infrastructure Google Cloud Platform (Compute Engine, Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, Pub/Sub, Secret Manager, IAM), Container Orchestration (Docker containerization, Kubernetes deployments, service configuration), and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or equivalent for reproducible deployments) Integration & Data Third-Party API Integration (OAuth flows, webhook processing, rate limit handling, retry logic), Message Queuing (Pub/Sub, RabbitMQ, or Kafka for async processing), and Caching Strategies (Redis for session management, query results, and rate limiting) GenAI & Observability GenAI Tool Proficiency (Active use of GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, or Claude for code generation, debugging, and documentation), LLM Integration Basics (Understanding of API usage, token management, prompt engineering, etc... ), and Observability (Structured logging, distributed tracing, metrics collection, and alerting) Our Operating Principles - Ship Code, Not Slides: We measure success by features in production, not meeting decks - Engineering Excellence: Clean code, tested systems, thorough documentation, and scalable architectures - Speed to Production: From feature branch to deployment in days, not weeks - Data-Driven Decisions: We trust metrics, experiments, and user feedback over opinions Continuous Learning: Every production incident and performance issue teaches us something new What Success Looks Like (First 12 Months) - Shipping velocity: Consistently deliver features from design to production within sprint cycles - System reliability: Maintain <0.1% API error rate and P95 response times under target SLAs - Code quality: Your PRs require minimal revisions and serve as examples for junior engineers - AI readiness: Backend services seamlessly support AI agent integrations and ML model deployments - Team impact: Improve developer productivity through better tooling, documentation, or architectural patterns What’s In It For You - Impact: Your APIs power advertising decisions affecting billions in ad spend across thousands of brands - Technical Growth: Work with cutting-edge AI/ML systems, high-traffic APIs, and modern cloud infrastructure - Ownership: Full responsibility for services from design through production operation - Learning Budget: Conferences, courses, certifications, and dedicated learning time - Compensation: Competitive salary, equity, performance bonuses, and comprehensive benefits - Flexibility: Remote-first culture with flexible hours and work-life balance Ready to Build the Future of Advertising AI?
