To make a frictionless checkout experience for all using advanced computer vision.
Role
Who you are
- 8+ years relevant coding experience

- Excellent knowledge of one or more of these languages: Python, Node.js, C++, Go, C#, Java
- Comfortable learning new languages, libraries, and frameworks when the solution calls for it

What the job involves
- We’re looking for a backend infrastructure developer to help us build the software that runs our kiosks and powers the extensive infrastructure behind them
- You’ll work on infrastructure that enables us to develop advanced deep learning solutions that power Mashgin's checkout experience for millions on transactions per month across the world
- This is not a specialized position -- we believe in end-to-end ownership of projects, so you’ll be involved throughout the entire product lifecycle, from idea generation, design, and prototyping to execution, and shipping while contributing to many different parts of the codebase in multiple languages
- Owning major feature development and working directly with the founders on product development from end to end
- Working with a small interdisciplinary team in hardware, software and design to build new versions of products from scratch
- Work on building new features and dreaming up new architecture to solve challenging problems
- Build backend infrastructure to perform scalable training in the cloud
- Rethinking and recreating existing codebases for scale
- Continuously improving and maintaining code that’s already in production
Our take
Touted as the “world’s fastest” self-checkout system, Mashgin is an AI and computer vision-powered touchless checkout system that cuts down transaction times to as little as ten seconds.
Mashgin’s smart kiosks use cameras to create a three-dimensional picture of objects, unfettered by packaging or placement, increasing retail rate for companies and cutting down queues for consumers. Whilst the market for smart self-service has become increasingly crowded over the last decade, Mashgin set themselves apart by being the most vetted computer-vision based self checkout system in the space.
The company is already profitable and its products have been used in convenience stores, cafeterias, sports arenas and hospitals. Having attracted significant funding, Mashgin is focused on growing its team, accelerating expansion, and scaling internationally.

Company values
- Hacker - Mashgin like to iterate quickly, getting things out in the world. This holds true for the non-engineers as well —there's nothing like real-world data to make a product better.
- Humility - Mashgin is a small team tackling a large problem — no task is below you when accomplishing things together. They respect each other, and everyone feels they are an integral part of the team.
- Flexibility - Even with specialized roles, Mashgin is all generalist at heart. They like to wear multiple hats and give everyone the opportunity to step outside their comfort zone and work on something they're not familiar with.
- Passion - Mashgin is proud of its work and impact. They don’t just solve challenging computer vision problems, they create practical, real-world products that people use every day — one of the few products that really "wows" people when they use it. To our customers, what we do is magic.
