Why Kubbly

At Kubbly, we're changing how businesses actually talk to their customers. We built a predictive AI platform that lets brands have real conversations with people through email, text, and WhatsApp. Our system figures out what each person will probably want next and knows when they're most likely to care. We're not sending marketing spam, instead we're starting actual conversations. People can even finish their orders right there in the chat, which we still think is pretty wild.

We need someone who can help us scale this whole personalized engagement. If you have a knack for building systems that can predict what people want and actually care whether conversations feel real or like talking to a bot, you'll fit right in. You'd be joining at that perfect stage: proven enough that we know it works, early enough that you'll shape how it grows.

Reasons to join us:

The founders actually built similar stuff before. Piyush and Giorgos have previous experience building similar startups, licensing technologies to Fortune 1000 companies, and 10+ years experience building ML and recommendation systems at Amazon and Goldman Sachs.
We're backed by Bek Ventures (formerly Earlybird Digital East). They backed UiPath and Payhawk before they were cool. They're founder friendly, provide immense value to their portfolio companies and don't micromanage.
You'll own the full pipeline, not tickets. Your code won't go through 5 layers of review. You'll have major role in deciding what to be built, how something should work, build it, ship it, and see customers use it.
We actually talk about technical problems. Weekly tech talks, paper discussions, post-mortems on interesting bugs. The founders are engineers first - they'll geek out with you about implementation details.
Competitive comp + equity.

🚀 About the role

At Kubbly, we believe AI will really change the way customer engagement works. We believe getting to know your customer is a right that not only large businesses or third-party marketplaces can afford. Everyone from medium- to small businesses to solopreneurs should be able to get to know their customers and create engaging ways to interact with them. As Senior Software Engineer you’ll be responsible for building the systems and tools that would enable businesses to drive customer engagement. You will work alongside the founding team to drive the product roadmap, develop new features and scale the platform. You will be product- and customer-obsessed many times evaluating your own hypotheses. This is a great opportunity to play a key role in the design and development of product directly used by businesses to drive customer engagement.

Our philosophy:We operate on high conviction, low ego. We value passionate, data-driven ideas. We debate vigorously to find the best solution, but then align as a team to execute.

✅ What You’ll Do

This is a Senior role - You get to work independently, be an owner and help shape the vision and product roadmap.
Lead the conception, development and scaling of tools and features that will be used from business to monitor and drive customer engagement.
Design, build and expand our proprietary database that powers our AI engines providing customer insights.
Implement and optimize robust CI/CD pipelines to facilitate reliable, frequent software deployments.
Raise the standard for code quality (best practices in software development, code reviews, testing, etc) and help us shape our engineering culture.
Collaborate closely with the team to streamline workflows and reduce friction in the development lifecycle.
Maintain clear, comprehensive documentation for all release processes and infrastructure systems.

🛠️ Who You Are

Soft Skills

Stubbornness on the vision, flexibility on the details (borrowed by Jeff Bezos 😀). This means that:

You are flexible and curious to learn about new things constantly.
You are perfectly fine to bury the hatchet for efforts that don’t lead to PMF and view this is as a learning opportunity.

Customer Obsession: we’re small and what we build is driven only by our desire to achieve PMF. This means we listen to our customers’ pains and work backwards to create awesome solutions.
Desire to work, next to CTO, CEO and being involved with engineering decisions.
Exceptional collaboration, and communication skills that foster a high-performing team environment (we believe thatless is more when it comes to communicating clearly).

Hard Skills

3+ years of experience in Software Engineering or DevOps supporting software development environments.
Strong programming skills (Python, Rust, Java, React, Golang, TypeScript, Node.js or other scripting languages).
Proficiency in cloud platforms (AWS preferred - EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS, ECR, ECS/EKS), including building and maintaining containerized applications (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
Deep understanding of REST principles and experience working with backend APIs and services.
Experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, etc.) and solid understanding of data normalization principles.
Expertise in CI/CD best practices and tools (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI, etc.)
Experience using GenAI work boosting tools in your day-to-day job (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc).
Strong skills in shell scripting (bash, zsh) and terminal multiplexers (tmux).

Nice to Have

Experience in early-stage or high-growth tech environments.
Familiarity building and managing data and process pipelines using Airflow or other workflow orchestration tools.
