New York, New York, United States

About

Paperpile runs on data at scale, with a literature database of 250M+ academic papers and a growing body of user data accumulated over more than a decade. You'll work across the systems that ingest, process, store, and serve this data reliably: building pipelines, optimizing search, handling PDFs at scale, and exposing clean APIs.
Requirements
Strong backend engineering background with experience building and operating data-heavy systems in production.
Experience deploying and operating services on AWS.
Experience designing and maintaining data ingestion pipelines handling messy, heterogeneous sources. Comfortable with web scraping and working with third‑party data sources and APIs.
Familiarity with Node.js and TypeScript. It’s fine if you come from a different background, such as Java or Python, but you should be comfortable working in this environment.
High standards for data quality. You think carefully about correctness, deduplication.
