About The Position

Merciv is building the intelligence layer for enterprise commerce. We connect an organization's entire data landscape — internal systems, social signals, industry reports, consumer signals, consumer behavior — and surface the insights and automated workflows that used to take analysts weeks. We raised $14M in seed funding, spent two years in stealth building the right thing, and we're now launching publicly. Our platform already drives 8-figure gross margin improvements for some of the world's largest retailers. We're a lean, high-ownership team. If you want to see your work matter immediately, this is it.

Requirements

• 5+ years of backend engineering experience building systems at scale
• Deeply proficient in Go and/or Python, with strong distributed systems fundamentals
• Worked with both SQL and NoSQL databases and know how to process data at scale
• Run production systems on Kubernetes
• Think in systems — can design for performance, scalability, and maintainability at once
• Thrive on ambiguity and hard problems, not just well-scoped tickets

Nice To Haves

• Former technical founders are encouraged to apply — we care more about what you've built than how long you've been building

Responsibilities

• Design and scale backend services in Go and Python powering real-time autonomous intelligence for Fortune 500 clients
• Architect data ingestion pipelines that handle millions of points across internal and external sources
• Build APIs that serve our agentic AI platform at enterprise scale

• Own system reliability — fault tolerance, observability, performance under load
• Shape architectural decisions that define the long-term trajectory of the platform
