Pora is a Beauty and Health AI assistant developed to democratize dermatology and cosmetology services. Our goal is to empower peoples' wellness and beauty with an ultimate tool for understanding and further improving their skin. We develop breakthrough AI solutions that combine deep knowledge of the user's condition with comprehensive competencies in skincare products.

We have already developed the iOS version of our app that is available in the US, Canada, and EU stores. It’s capable of:

• Guiding the user through a dermatological questionnaire to understand their conditions and needs
• Taking images of the user’s face and providing ML-based analysis
• Providing meaningful recommendations of topical cosmetic products that can improve the skin conditions of the user.
• Suggesting face exercises to maintain firmness and the youth of the skin.

Still, we are at our early stages now. We need to continue developing our backend services to improve the reliability, security, and effectiveness of our infrastructure. At the same time, we need to implement a large variety of new user scenarios. Last but not least: we need to improve our analysis algorithms and data processing pipelines. So, for a backend engineer, we’re happy to propose a wide range of opportunities — from building infrastructure to research.

What do we need

The backend should meet various needs, including:

• serving the interactive user traffic,
• inferencing machine learning models,
• running regular processes to aggregate various data sources and provide the endpoints for the results,
• storing and processing the logs data,

and, for sure, we'll need a good monitoring system, tests, CI/CD pipelines, and almost everything you may imagine when speaking of the backend! We're with cloud solutions, so the corresponding experience should be handy.

We're looking for a solid professional to continue building the backend infrastructure and join the team responsible person for it. If you also have the ambition to lead the corresponding team in the future — you're a top-notch candidate!
