Software Engineer

Remilia is building a consumer social platform where the social graph, long-form content, real-time chat, and a virtual economy operate on a shared entity-relationship data model.

We're looking for software engineers who care about craft, interesting engineering challenges and who want to work in a squad that owns its surface area end to end.

Our stack is intentionally boring technology and a minimal dependency monorepo: Go, SQLite, TypeScript/React.

Responsibilities

You'll be working on identity services, user profiles, real-time chat, timeline-style content, friends/social graph, feed content algorithms, and admin and user dashboards.

Your exact responsibilities will depend on your skill set and interests. We have multiple front-ends, Go services, IAM systems, generative AI features, content management systems, external APIs, a mobile app, 3rd-party app integrations, real-time events over websockets, media pipelines, and many other engineering areas to work on.

Good to have:

• A portfolio of interesting work you can walk through
• Experience shipping things end to end
• Founding-engineer or 0→1 experience on startup teams

Background or interest working in any of the following:

• Real-time systems (WebSockets, SSE)
• Systems programming (C/C++/Rust/Zig)
• Relational databases (data modeling, indexing, query design)
• Media pipelines (upload, processing, delivery)
• In-game social systems, chat, community, or UGC products

Us:

• Independent and well-capitalized
• Engaged alpha user community
• High-autonomy squads inside a growing org
• Ambitious Xanadu/Semantic Web inspired vision

Benefits:

• Seed stage equity
• Learning/health/culture stipends, PTO, health insurance
• Creative studio environment

All roles in-office (Irvine, California). To apply: include a portfolio of work

Compensation: $80K - $220K
