What are the responsibilities and job description for the TypeScript Backend Engineer position at Silktide?

Want to build the future faster than most people think reasonable? We need engineers to help us transform how people interact with the web.

We’re a fast growing, self-funded SaaS platform with 4.8★ customer love and a 4.9★ team score. Help us build the next generation of our website optimization platform.

What You’ll Build

  • AI agents that orchestrate website creation and optimization
  • Human-simulator bots that browse, click, and get frustrated, like real people
  • Planet-scale distributed services running on a Kubernetes fleet

How We Work

  • Core stack: TypeScript/Node, AWS, Kubernetes, Clickhouse, MySQL, Redis, Playwright
  • AI tooling: Cursor, Codex, MCP, LLMs, agentic workflows
  • Culture: ship often, own the outcome, debate ideas not egos, delete code that no longer serves us

You’ll thrive here if you…

  • Have 3 years building distributed backends in TypeScript / JavaScript
  • Already work with agents, vector databases, context engineering
  • Like small teams, fast decisions and deleting code as much as writing it

You will not love it here if you…

  • Need a detailed spec before touching the keyboard
  • Avoid honest feedback, in any direction
  • Prefer 10x planning to 1x shipping

Location and lifestyle

  • Hybrid in downtown Austin, 3 days a week in our dog friendly office in the historic Littlefield Building (106 E 6th St, 6th and Congress) with 24/7 parking
  • Walk out to some of the city’s best tacos, coffee and live music, with easy access to Lady Bird Lake trails

Compensation And Benefits

  • Competitive base salary with bonus or equity depending on level
  • Top spec MacBook Pro (M4 or better)
  • Private Health, Dental and Vision, plus a monthly wellness stipend
  • 401(k) with company match
  • 20 days PTO plus US holidays, with vacation increasing over time
  • Flexible hours, casual dress, weekly team lunches and monthly outings

The fine print

Must be eligible to work in the United States without sponsorship now or in the future.

Compensation Range: $120K - $150K

Salary : $120,000 - $150,000
