New Mexico HQ:
Pixasocial
LLC, 1209
Mountain Road PL NE Ste N, Albuquerque, NM 87110, USA. This role is onsite/hybrid at that HQ.
Careers listing:
https://pixasocial.com/careers (currently LinkedIn-only; apply for this role by email as below).
  • ## About the role Founding-team backend seat in Albuquerque.
You will architect and build backend systems and AI-adjacent capabilities while sitting close to the people shipping the product—not a remote-only ticket queue.
The surface area is real:
auth and accounts, campaign and media APIs, psychographic services other engineers own in depth, inference job orchestration, publishing, billing-adjacent usage, persona export. We need someone who can pick a load-bearing piece, design it, ship it, and keep it up. This is mid-level with founding-team scope: you will work directly with founders and you will be in the product every week. Onsite/hybrid at Pixasocial
LLC, 1209
Mountain Road PL NE Ste N, Albuquerque, NM 87110. We are not listing other offices.
  • ## What you'll do
  • Architect and implement backend systems that the app at https://app.
pixasocial.
com actually runs on:
APIs, persistence, jobs, and the glue between generation, media, and publish.
  • Own slices of AI capability on the server side—job orchestration for image/video/voice, webhooks, status, retries—working with platform and psych-stack engineers rather than wrapping a model in a vacuum.
  • Make data models that survive a real
SaaS:
workspaces, assets in Media Studio, campaigns, channel connections, usage.
  • Tighten the path from "generate" to "schedule/post" so failures are visible and recoverable.
  • Raise the quality of boring things that early products skip: authz, auditability of publishes, migrations, backups of customer media metadata.
  • Sit with founders on sequencing: what we build this month vs. what we must not pretend is done.
  • Write the kind of docs and API notes a global remote engineer can use without pinging Albuquerque at 2 a.m. their time.
  • Live in the product. Register, build a campaign, publish a test post, export a persona if you can. Your cover letter should name the first backend fix, not a generic "I love startups."
  • ## What we're looking for
  • Mid-level backend engineer who has taken services from sketch to production and on-call.
  • You'll likely work with Python and/or TypeScript, HTTP APIs, queues, and Postgres. Comfort with files/object storage and third-party APIs (social, generation) matters more than a branded framework.
  • You can design a schema and an API, then change them without breaking mobile/web clients.
  • High agency. Founding-team energy means you will do unglamorous work (logs, migrations, a stuck publish job) without waiting for a PM ticket.
  • Able to work onsite/hybrid in Albuquerque, NM. Do not apply as fully remote for this listing.
  • ## Nice to have
  • Prior early-stage or small-team backend where you were one of a few people on the server.
  • Experience with media pipelines, webhooks, or social-platform APIs.
  • Enough inference/job-queue literacy to debug a stuck generation without throwing it over the wall.
  • Comfort pairing with GTM on what "usage" and "workspace" mean for brands vs. creators.
  • ## How to apply (required for the next interview round) We only advance people who have used the product.
1. Create a free account at https://app.pixasocial.com/register 2.
Go through PixaSocial yourself:
build an audience or campaign, generate content, try publishing/scheduling, and notice what is strong and what is broken. 3. Email ananya.sharma@pixasocial.com with subject `Backend Engineer (Early-Stage / Founding Team) — [Your name]`, your resume, and a cover letter that is not a CV rewrite. The letter must explain, specifically, how you would improve PixaSocial in this role: what you used, what you would change first, and why you are the person to do it. Applications without a product-based cover letter will not be selected for interview.
