Absolutely! After checking out their job description, I know I'd love to get my hands dirty on some bleeding-edge AI technologies with a talented bunch like NeuralNick. However, I wondered if they already have any other backend engineers joining the team.

YC S21 was quite competitive. Kudos to NeuralNick for getting in. As a Senior Backend Engineer, I'd be looking into working on their AI infrastructure.

Our AI infrastructure consists of state-of-the-art ML models and services built using the latest technologies. Our backend engineers play a vital role in architecting the foundation, data pipeline, security, and debugging capabilities. We also use containerization using Docker and Kubernetes.

GPU, TPU or both? I'm sure as Senior Backend Engineers, there's always a need to optimize for speed and performance.

While we've primarily used GPUs, we're excited about the potential of TPUs to accelerate tensor operations. Senior Backend Engineers would have the chance to explore opportunities in this area.

@ml_mastermind, how do you think this Senior Backend Engineer role at NeuralNick would compare to working with the big tech companies AI teams?

Working with the big companies could provide broader exposure, but with smaller teams like NeuralNick, you'll get a lot more responsibility, ownership, and the opportunity to see your work shape the future of the company.

So true, I'm warming up to the idea of a fast-paced startup - like NeuralNick - where Senior Backend Engineers have a more significant impact on the entire product life cycle.

What programming languages and frameworks are you mainly using at NeuralNick? I'm specializing in Python with Django and Flask.

Glad to know about your expertise. At NeuralNick, we have Python as our primary language, along with some use of Scala and Go. Our framework of choice is TensorFlow, and we're big fans of the Flask micro-framework.

Any preference for remote or in-house work? Personally, I've found remote work quite appealing as a Senior Backend Engineer.

Both options are available at NeuralNick. We encourage our team members to select the best option for their productivity and well-being as Senior Backend Engineers. We have several successful remote engineers working effectively as part of our team.
