Why this grade
This listing scored 28/100, which is an F. It lost the most ground on pay transparency.
- Description depth 20 / 20 How much the posting actually says about the work, measured in characters of real text.
- Corroboration 10 / 10 Whether more than one source carries this listing.
- Remote clarity 8 / 15 Whether "remote" means anywhere, or is quietly restricted to one country.
- Role specificity 6 / 10 Whether the listing is tagged well enough to tell what the role actually is.
- Freshness 4 / 15 How recently it was posted. Older postings are likelier to be filled or abandoned.
- Pay transparency 0 / 25 A published salary range, worth more than any other single factor because it is what a candidate cannot find out without applying.
-20 Ghost-job penalty — Deducted for signals that this posting may not be a real, currently-open role — staleness, repeated relisting, or talent-pool language.
Every figure above is arithmetic over the posting itself — its salary field, its text, its age, its tags and how many sources carry it. How the grades work →

About ActAI
There are over 5 billion users using basic applications today such email, notes, tasks, calendar and they're not AI-native. Our mission is to build proactive applications for anyone in the world, who are not used to complex prompting. We aim to bring intelligence to conversations, errands, organising and workflows, with minimal to no prompting.
Our product focuses on achieving high reliability for long-running workflows, persistent context, and real-world task completion. We believe products will greatly reduce hallucinations.
Our objective is to organise anyone's life, allowing us all to spend time on valuable and meaningful things.
Role
As a Backend Engineer, AI, you own the inference and orchestration layer that powers every AI interaction in the product. Your work sits between models and users, where latency, correctness, reliability, and cost directly impact real-world experience.
You will build and operate production systems that turn model capability into fast, stable, observable APIs used across mobile and desktop clients.
Focus
Build and operate backend systems that serve AI-powered features in production.
Design inference pipelines, orchestration layers, and service boundaries around models.
Own production concerns: monitoring, logging, alerting, and incident response.
Optimize latency and throughput across inference, caching, batching, and streaming.
Ideal Experiences
Strong backend engineering fundamentals in production environments.
Experience running high-throughput, low-latency services.
Familiarity with AI inference patterns (LLMs, embeddings, multimodal).
Comfortable debugging distributed systems under load.
Bias toward shipping and learning from production behavior.
Outcomes
Backend systems run reliably at scale, handling production AI traffic with low latency and high throughput.
APIs are stable, clear, and support seamless integration with frontend and ML systems.
Production incidents are quickly detected, diagnosed, and resolved, minimizing user impact.
Iterative improvements based on real usage continuously increase system performance and reliability.
Tech Stack

How We Work
The best products today in the world were built by small, world class teams. We are a high talent density and hands-on team. We make decisions collectively, move at rapid speed, striking a balance between shipping high quality work and learning. Joining our team requires the ability to bring structure, exercise judgment, and execute independently. Our goal is to put in hands of our users a truly magical product
Interview process
If there appears to be a fit, we'll reach to schedule 3, but no more than 4 interviews.
Applications are evaluated by our technical team members. Interviews will be conducted via virtual meetings and/or onsite.
We value transparency and efficiency, so expect a prompt decision. If you've demonstrated the exceptional skills and mindset we're looking for, we'll extend an offer to join us. This isn't just a job offer; it's an invitation to be part of a team that's bringing AI to have practical benefits to billions globally.
