Vyro is seeking a Senior Backend Engineer to design, build, and own scalable backend systems for its high‑throughput GenAI image and video generation platform. The role involves architecting asynchronous pipelines, optimizing inference performance, and mentoring the engineering team in a fast‑moving, fully remote environment.
5+ years of backend experience with production ownership at scale
Strong system design skills and ability to justify architectural tradeoffs
Hands‑on experience with async message queues and distributed worker orchestration
Proven ability to work in high‑concurrency, high‑throughput environments
Self‑starter attitude and ability to work independently in a fast‑paced bootstrapped setting
Proficiency in Go or strong willingness to adopt it
Experience with ML/AI infrastructure, GPU workloads, or media processing pipelines

Location: Islamabad, Pakistan
Employment Type: Full-time
About the role
We're a bootstrapped GenAI platform serving image and video generation at real scale — Fortune 500 clients, $35M+ ARR, and traffic that doesn't wait for you to catch up. We need a backend engineer who thinks in systems, not just services. You'll own the architecture behind our generation pipelines, inference orchestration, and the infrastructure that keeps latency low while volume climbs.
This is a hands-on architect role. You will design and write code, not just draw diagrams.
What you'll do
- Design and own backend systems that handle high-throughput, asynchronous workloads (generation queues, worker orchestration, media processing)
- Architect for scale and reliability — you'll make the calls on data flow, service boundaries, and failure handling
- Build and optimize async pipelines: job queuing, retries, backpressure, dead-letter handling, and everything that keeps millions of requests moving
- Improve performance and cost at the infrastructure level — inference is expensive, and efficiency is a product feature here
- Set technical direction and raise the engineering bar for the team through review and mentorship
What we're looking for
- Strong backend experience (5+ years) with real ownership of production systems at scale
- Proven system design skills — you can defend your architecture decisions with tradeoffs, not buzzwords
- Hands-on experience with asynchronous pipelines, message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQS, or similar), and distributed workers
- Comfort with high-concurrency, high-throughput environments
- Ability to work independently in a fast, low-process, bootstrapped environment
Nice to have
- Experience with Go (or willingness to work in it — we lean on Go for backend)
- Exposure to ML/AI infrastructure, GPU workloads, or media processing pipelines
- Track record contributing to open source (we look at GitHub signal)
Why ImagineArt
- Real revenue, real users, no VC treadmill — decisions are made by engineers and founders, fast
- Genuinely hard technical problems at the intersection of AI and scale
- Fully remote, full-time
