Job Description

Remote (Canada-friendly) | Early-stage

What we’re building

AchievaFlow is an AI-powered platform helping people manage focus, overwhelm, and execution — with a strong focus on neurodivergent users.

We’re building a system that is useful, ethical, and non-addictive — early stage, high ownership, no bureaucracy.


The role

We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to help shape the core of the platform.

This is not a task-execution role. You’ll be making foundational decisions on how the system is designed and evolves.

You’ll work directly with the founder and CTO.


What you’ll own
  • Backend architecture and API design (Python + FastAPI)
  • Data modeling and system structure (PostgreSQL)
  • Early AI-driven workflows (LLM integrations, simple pipelines)
  • Technical direction for scalability and maintainability

  • What we’re looking for
    • Strong backend experience (Python or similar)
    • Proven ability to design systems, not just implement features
    • Comfort making decisions with incomplete information
    • High ownership mindset — you build, decide, and iterate

  • Nice to have
    • Experience with AI/LLM-based features
    • Early-stage or startup experience
    • Interest in productivity, behavior, or mental wellness

  • Commitment
    • ~5–10 hours/week
    • Async, flexible
    • Volunteer role with clear path to meaningful equity

  • Why this role
    • Shape core architecture from day 0
    • Real ownership, not tickets
    • Build something with real-world impact
