We build a new class of models that can perceive, predict, and act in virtual and physical environments. Backed by General Catalyst and Khosla.
About the role
Medal's backend powers everything from real-time in-app communications and storage of billions of user-generated clips to our ML-based feed and social features. You'll work closely with product, infra, and data teams to architect and build highly scalable, low-latency systems, helping design critical APIs, evolving our backend infrastructure, mentoring other engineers, and driving technical decisions that impact millions of users.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years of backend engineering experience, with significant time in production environments
- Strong proficiency in Java and hands-on experience building scalable microservices
- Deep understanding of RESTful API design and distributed systems
- Relational databases: Experience with MySQL or PostgreSQL, including performance tuning and schema design
- Experience building systems that handle thousands of requests per second
- Comfort with cloud infrastructure (GCP or AWS preferred), CI/CD, and infrastructure as code
More about this role
General Intuition is the frontier lab for acting in space and time. We build large action models and world models that can perceive, predict, and act across virtual and physical environments. General Intuition builds on the strength of Medal, the world's largest and fastest-growing platform for gaming clips, where millions of gamers capture, share, and discover new games every year. We recently raised $320M at a $2.3B valuation led by Khosla Ventures with participation from General Catalyst, Eric Schmidt, and Jeff Bezos, to discover the next generation of real-world intelligence.
