About MadMen AI
MadMen AI is a seed-stage AdTech startup based in Burlingame, CA. Our co-founders, Aman Jain and Vinay Jain, have spent more than a decade building Ad products at Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. We raised $4.5m from top VCs and angels, including Wing, Patron, Samsung, Balaji, and many more.
MadMen AI’s vision is to make an AI-powered ad agency accessible to every marketer. Imagine an AI that combines Don Draper’s creative genius with the sophisticated data-backed approach of a hedge-fund manager. Such expertise is typically limited to the Coca-Colas of the world. By democratizing access to this powerful combination, we’ll help smaller brands stand toe-to-toe with industry titans, and help many more new brands in being created.
The role
We are looking to hire a founding Backend engineer to build out the server-side components for the MadMen product. This involves writing API endpoints in Node.js, designing the schema using Prisma/PostgreSQL, designing algorithms for event-detection and running them as cron jobs, and finally deploying and scaling all of this using AWS infra managed by Terraform.
