About Nectar Social 🍊

Nectar Social is building the most advanced AI social commerce experience for businesses. Since starting the company, we've been winning over leading brands & retailers by establishing ourselves as the go-to platform for intelligent commerce experiences. Our platform enables high-growth brands and enterprises to transform how they engage with customers and drive revenue through AI-powered conversational solutions.

We've recently closed a significant funding round backed by tier-A investors and notable angels, including former leadership from Meta and Shopify.

About The Role

As an Infrastructure Engineer at Nectar Social, you'll architect and build the foundation of our AI commerce platform. This is a crucial role where you'll tackle complex technical challenges to ensure our system operates reliably at scale while maintaining the speed of development our customers expect.

In this role, your responsibilities would include:

  • Designing and implementing scalable infrastructure solutions using AWS, GCP, Cloudflare, and infrastructure as code
  • Building and optimizing our database architecture to handle complex data operations efficiently
  • Developing robust monitoring and observability systems to ensure platform reliability
  • Creating automated deployment pipelines and developer tools that enable rapid iteration
  • Collaborating with product engineers to architect solutions that balance speed and scalability
  • Implementing security best practices across our infrastructure

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience building and maintaining production systems
  • Technical excellence: Deep expertise with AWS and infrastructure as code (Pulumi experience is a plus)
  • System design: Proven ability to architect reliable, scalable distributed systems
  • Problem solving: Track record of solving complex technical challenges in high-growth environments
  • Execution speed: Ability to write high-quality code quickly and make pragmatic technical decisions

What Makes You Stand Out

  • Experience scaling systems at high-growth startups
  • Strong experience with PostgreSQL optimization and management
  • Expertise with observability and monitoring tools like Datadog
  • Background in AI/ML infrastructure
  • Track record of exceptional academic or professional achievement (e.g., founded a company, graduated from top universities)

We're looking for exceptional engineers who want to build foundational technology that powers the future of commerce. If you're excited about tackling complex technical challenges and working in a fast-paced environment, we want to talk to you.
