Summary Generated by Built In

Remilia is building a consumer social platform where the social graph, long-form content, real-time chat, and a virtual economy operate on a shared entity-relationship data model.

We're looking for software engineers who care about craft, interesting engineering challenges and who want to work in a squad that owns its surface area end to end.

Our stack is intentionally boring technology and a minimal dependency monorepo: Go, SQLite, TypeScript/React.

Responsibilities

You'll be working on identity services, user profiles, real-time chat, timeline-style content, friends/social graph, feed content algorithms, and admin and user dashboards.

Your exact responsibilities will depend on your skill set and interests. We have multiple front-ends, Go services, IAM systems, generative AI features, content management systems, external APIs, a mobile app, 3rd-party app integrations, real-time events over websockets, media pipelines, and many other engineering areas to work on.
