Certivo is revolutionizing the manufacturing industry with an advanced AI-driven compliance platform. We're not building just another AI chatbot – we're creating a sophisticated agentic infrastructure that's set to transform how global industries manage product safety and regulatory compliance. Our mission is to make products safer for consumers, better for the environment, and easier for companies to produce responsibly.


By streamlining compliance processes, we help manufacturers:

  1. Eliminate harmful chemicals and materials from their products
  2. Ensure products meet rigorous safety standards
  3. Reduce environmental impact through better sourcing and production methods
  4. Bring safer, cleaner products to market faster

In essence, we're using cutting-edge AI to help companies make the world a little bit better with every product they create. Whether it's a smartphone free from toxic substances, children's toys made with safe materials, or cosmetics produced without harmful ingredients, Certivo is there, working behind the scenes to make it happen.


The Challenge

Certivo is developing a complex ecosystem of AI agents, each specializing in critical aspects of compliance management:

  1. A core AI agent orchestrating operations
  2. Document parsing agents extracting vital data
  3. Regulatory capture agents monitoring evolving regulations
  4. Compliance evaluation agents assessing product conformity
  5. Communication generation agents crafting tailored messages
  6. Observability agents ensuring optimal system performance

The Opportunity

As our Backend Engineer, you will:

  1. Develop efficient data ingestion pipelines and document stores for processing complex product data (e.g Bill of Materials data, product material specification sheets etc)
  2. Implement AI-powered document parsing workflows using AWS Lambda and other serverless technologies mixed with LLM and intelligent document parsing
  3. Design and manage data integrations with ERPs and Product Lifecycle Management Software (PLM) with APIs
  4. Create a backend and optimize SQL for our PostgreSQL databases on AWS RDS and design it for scalability and performance.
  5. Set up and manage API gateways for secure and efficient data transfer
  6. Implement data observability solutions to ensure system reliability and performance
  7. Design scalable systems to handle growing data volumes and our user base
  8. Build and work with AI Agents to orchestrate tasks (using popular agent frameworks like LangGraph)
  9. Work with the engineering team to experiment and design with AI based development techniques and strategies to make our product stand out from a traditional SaaS application.

The Ideal Candidate

We're looking for someone who:

  1. Has 5+ years or so of backend development experience, with expertise in TypesScript, SQL, some Python and AWS services and Relational databases like PostGres. Our front-end will be NextJS and React/Typescript, but this role is primarily focused on the backend.
  2. Excels at designing and implementing complex data processing workflows
  3. Is passionate about microservice engineering and creating efficient, scalable backend systems
  4. Has experience working with document processing, ERPs, and building robust APIs in node, express, python or similar technologies.
  5. Is comfortable with SQL, particularly PostgreSQL, and designing efficient database schemas
  6. Has a keen interest in AI and Agentic Workflows, particularly in the context of data processing and uses AI driven development as much as possible.
  7. Is familiar with email communication services and implementing automated messaging systems
  8. Has experience with AWS services like Lambda, RDS, API Gateway, and S3

Experience building a RAG pipeline for document processing with Vector Databases is a big plus!

  1. Knowledge of setting up observability tools like DataDog is a plus
  2. Setting up email communication flows via AWS or messaging services.
  3. Familiarity with LLM Agentic frameworks like LangChain/LangGraph is a big advantage
  4. Able to administer CI/CD tools as needed to deploy and orchestrate services.

Why Certivo?

  1. Be at the forefront of AI application in industry, working with cutting-edge technology
  2. Join a well-funded startup backed by Pioneer Square Labs and Fortive
  3. Work in a hybrid environment in downtown Seattle
  4. Receive competitive compensation, including equity in a high-potential SaaS platform
  5. Shape the future of how industries interact with AI-driven compliance systems

Our Interview Process:

  1. Initial Conversation: Discuss your experience and our AI-driven platform
  2. AI-Enhanced Backend Focused, Take Home Coding Challenge: Implement a data processing or REST API and showcase it integrating with AI tools and/or AWS services - you will code, put on GitHub, and we will review. We love it if you use as many AI-driven tools as possible to showcase this, but we need someone with the expertise and experience to know when to automate and when to dive in manually into code. We will review and then schedule a call to discuss it with you.
  3. On-Site Visit: Meet the team, dive into our architecture, and participate in a short collaborative coding session (not a test, more of a collaborative brainstorming session), we want us both to enjoy working together.
  4. Team Fit and Final Steps: Informal chat with potential teammates, CEO and quick decision turnaround
