**Remote — Data Team, Search Domain — Full-time**
Modash gives brands the tools to work with the right content creators and helps creators earn a living doing what they love. Behind the scenes, **we’re building the world-class data platform that powers creator discovery for thousands of companies**— and we’re looking for a hardened **Senior Search Engineer** to shape the direction of the creator economy.
**What your day-to-day will look like**:
We’re not a service function — Data & Backend Engineering are core product capabilities at Modash, building products for customers to use. **Search is a specialised sub-team** of backend engineering, and you’ll own projects end-to-end, from idea to launch.
Here’s a typical day:
- Start your day with a short standup
- Heads-down focus time to design, build, and optimise large-scale search systems
- Minimal meetings — maximum ownership
- Collaborating with backend, data, and product teams to deliver impactful featuresContinuously improving search accuracy, speed, and scalability
- You’ll be working on big, impactful projects like:
- Building a creator search engine indexing **200M+ influencer profiles** and billions of media files
- Generating embeddings from images, videos, text, and audio at **massive scale**:
- Creating systems for advanced filtering, ranking, and relevance scoring
- Deploying the latest ML models for semantic and vector search into production within weeks
- Designing indexing and querying pipelines to serve millions of requests with low latency
- Experimenting with how LLMs, multimodal embeddings, and vector databases can enhance search & recommendations
You won’t be patching pipelines — you’ll be **creating production-ready search products from scratch** that directly impact customers.
**The Data Team**:
At Modash, search is a joint effort between the data and backend engineering teams. You’ll work closely with:
We work in two closely aligned teams:
- **Data Engineering** - building the ingestion, processing, and enrichment pipelines that feed our search systems.
- **Backend Engineering** - integrating search into our APIs, infrastructure, and customer-facing features.
We value autonomy, but we also love to work closely as a team — through pair programming, reviews, and shared wins. You’ll collaborate with the CEO, CTO, engineers, sales, and even customers to shape what we build. Everyone takes ownership, but nobody works in isolation.
We’re remote-first, but we connect IRL at regular team offsites to collaborate, reflect, and have fun.
- **️ Our tech stack**
- AWS with Pulumi (IaC)
- Typescript and Node.js
- ElasticSearch
- Airflow for orchestration
- Spark (EMR) — mostly PySpark
- SageMaker, DynamoDB, S3, Glue, Kinesis, Lambda, ECS
- GitHub, Confluence, Miro, Jira
**The interview process**:
We move fast. You can get interviewed in under a week. Process consists of:
1. Intro chat
2. System Design Interview (search and influencer related)
3. Team Interview
3. Culture & alignment call with the CEO Avery Schrader - That’s it
**Requirements**:
**Skillset we’re looking for**:
- Solid experience as a Backend or Data Engineer with a focus on search systems at big-data scale
- Deep expertise with **Elasticsearch** or comparable search technologies
- Experience with **vector search, embeddings, semantic search, and ranking algorithms**:
- Proven track record designing & scaling indexing and querying pipelines
- Familiarity with AWS (SageMaker, Glue, Kinesis, SQS, Lambda, ECS)You’ve built full products from concept to production: scoping architecture implementation
- release
- Strong system design skills and experience with large-scale, high-volume environments
- Clear communication skills & collaborative mindset
- Autonomy in gathering requirements for complex projects
- Experience in fast-paced startup environments
- Based in Europe with some overlap with GMT+3
**Bonus points if you**:
- Have worked with **multimodal embeddings** (image, video, text, audio)
- Have self-hosted ML models or worked with GPU infrastructure
- Care deeply about code quality and best practicesAre curious about the creator economy
**We’re looking for people that**:
- Are tirelessly in search of the best versions of ourselves - Who want to really show what they’ve got and want to prove the world and themselves what they’re capable of.
- Are direct in their communication - We support and encourage one another through direct, immediate & helpful feedback.
- Know how to become autonomous - Who we can trust to do their best work without needing processes to guardrail.
- Are willing to take ownership to stand up for ourselves, our teams, and our communities.
- Have fun, are honest, and do great work - No title chasers, no finger pointers, no being awful. Absolutely no slowing down to protect ego.
**Benefits**
**What we offer**:
- Fully remote — work from anywhere in Europe Unlimited paid vacation
- Flexible hours — async-friendly culture
