## About the Role
We need a Backend Infrastructure Engineer who can take existing component-level ML and CV work and wire it into a functioning integrated system. The core pipeline exists. Segmentation, embeddings, vector database, cloud infrastructure. What is missing is the engineer who connects it all, builds the API layer, and gets the system running end to end. You will own backend architecture decisions from day one.
## About the Company
Aethreallegence is building the inventory cognition infrastructure layer for physical retail. Not a camera system. Not a checkout tool. A continuous presence cognition platform that maintains inventory truth across a store environment and corrects it in real time when reality drifts from the record.
We are pre-revenue, patent-pending, and moving fast. This is a founding equity role for someone who wants to build something that has not been built before.
