Are you the visionary platform engineer we’re seeking? We’re on a quest to assemble a crew of brilliantly unique thinkers and together embark on an odyssey poised to democratize marketing for small businesses. Join us to architect our core systems, integrate powerful tools, and be apart of the backbone that redefines how small businesses harness technology.

WHY IDELE?

At Idele, we believe that in a post-AI world, every rule is up for debate. Here, the magic lies in knowing when to discard the rulebook and when to build on it. As our first dedicated platform engineer, you’ll help build a next-generation software platform that leverages tools like Lovable, n8n and other no/low-code technologies, while applying your high-code expertise to architect a truly functional system. This unique role offers a rare opportunity to evolve from a traditional Software Engineer into a Product Engineer—using AI to empower development instead of solely writing code.

We’re currently building a prototype in-house to meet our own marketing needs and ensure we validate the idea in real usage scenarios. We want to bring a Platform Engineer into the fold during the prototyping phase, so by the time we pivot to building a broader MVP for external clients, you’ll have the background, context, and ownership to make things happen smoothly—and shape the product in ways that truly matter.

INNOVATE

Collaborate with a dynamic team to architect scalable systems and redefine development using cutting-edge, AI-enhanced no/low-code tools.

GROW & EVOLVE

Seize a rare learning opportunity at the forefront of emerging technologies, expanding your skillset and shaping the future of efficient, impactful software solutions.

THE ROLE

We’re looking for someone who’s excited about joining early and be a part of taking our internal prototype to a market-ready MVP. Your objective will be to understand the foundation of the platform alongside the prototyping phase, but your real mission is to rapidly transition the prototype into a stable MVP that allows us to quickly go to market. As our platform engineer, you’ll help shape and build the backbone of our marketing platform. You’ll strategize system architectures, implement robust solutions, and manage continuous improvements to ensure we stay ahead of emerging technologies.

STRATEGY

Design scalable architectures and plan cohesive workflows that integrate our databases (Supabase, Pinecone) and system connections.

IMPLEMENTING

Build robust n8n workflows, set up database structures, and develop custom components that extend beyond our no-code foundation.

MAINTAIN

Continuously oversee and refine our systems, adapting to new technologies and ensuring optimal performance.

THE PROFILE

We’re looking for an experienced, pragmatic engineer who sees beyond the code to the big picture. You’re passionate about crafting efficient, smart solutions that deliver real-world impact and value. Who embraces the dynamic nature of an early startup with enthusiasm and resilience. 

• Passionate about creating efficient, impactful solutions that go beyond just the code.

• Possesses a high-level understanding of system design and rationale behind our approach.

• Comfortable in a startup setting — this isn’t for those still figuring out if this environment is right for them.

• Open to diverse perspectives, adept at balancing established conventions with innovative approaches.

• Committed to the journey, eager to contribute your expertise to a shared vision and long-term success.

THE SKILLSET

We’re seeking a candidate with a strong foundation in frontend development who can build complex, engaging UI components and systems. You should have a solid grasp of web fundamentals—from HTTP to CSS—and be proficient in modern technologies.

• Broad proficiency in Node.js and TypeScript for backend development.

• Foundational experience with Supabase and Pinecone (or smiliar tools) for database and vector data structures.

• Familiarity with designing and implementing automated sequence-based workflows using n8n or other similar tools.

• Ability to build custom components that extend a no/low-code foundation as needed.

• Understanding of core DevOps principles, API integrations and ensuring seamless system connectivity.
