We build AI-powered tools that help researchers and organizations make sense of the scientific literature. Small team, hard problems, real momentum. Our MCP server just launched, enterprise adoption is growing, and the product roadmap is full of ambitious bets.
Infrastructure: AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, Lambda), Docker, Kong API Gateway, GitHub Actions, CircleCI
Observability: OpenTelemetry, New Relic, Sentry, PostHog
Other: Stripe, SendGrid, Playwright, TypeScript
What we're looking for:
Strong engineering fundamentals
Comfort working across the stack, Python and JavaScript/React in particular
Experience with PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, or similar data-intensive systems is a plus
Familiarity with LLM APIs and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) is a bonus
Genuine curiosity about how AI can improve how people interact with research

I'm a co-founder at Scite. We've built an MCP server that lets AI assistants search and read full-text scientific articles.
We have 50M+ full-text articles from licensed publisher agreements. If your institution subscribes to a journal, you can authenticate with your institutional credentials and your AI assistant gets the same access you'd have through your library. No scraping, no workarounds, fully licensed.
For anything outside your subscription, you get metadata, abstracts, and direct linkouts to the publisher page.
It works with Claude, Cursor, and anything that supports MCP.
Scite.ai | Full-Stack Software Engineers | Remote (US/Canada)| Full time | https://scite.ai/
We are hiring for multiple engineering roles at scite.ai to build the worlds best place to search, discover, understand, and access research.
We have unique access to the world's literature through publisher partnerships and and have developed a market leading generative AI Assistant.
We are mostly looking for full stack senior software engineering roles who have experience and interest in scaling up systems and building large scale ingestion and search - based applications. This role requires no previous AI experience or knowledge (though its a plus!) so its perfect for folks who want to break into the generative AI space from an engineering background.
