About SocialSweep

SocialSweep is the search engine for your network. We turn fragmented relationship data across platforms into a unified, intelligent search experience. By combining structured data, AI-generated insights, and hybrid search (semantic + lexical), we help users instantly surface the right people, opportunities, and connections.

Why you shouldn't work here – Radical Transparency from our CEO

What Applying Looks Like

We keep it transparent and efficient. Here's what to expect:

  • 1-min intro video (Loom, Vidyard, or Google Drive – share your link below)
  • Application review
  • 15-minute intro call
  • Strengths assessment – how you learn and do
  • Hiring Manager interview – values and culture fit
  • Paid test project – work with us, like you're already on the team
  • Final call with our CEO
  • Offer – if we're both excited, we move forward fast

What You'll Work On

You'll be a core engineer building and scaling our AI-powered search platform. Our system ingests relationship data, enriches it with AI, and enables fast, high-relevance retrieval using a hybrid BM25 + vector search approach.

Core System Flow

Ingest and normalize data from multiple integrated systems

Enrich connections with AI-generated summaries

Generate embeddings from summaries using OpenAI

Store vectors in Weaviate

Execute hybrid search (BM25 + semantic, weighted ~0.75 semantic)

Interpret user queries (intent detection, inclusive vs exclusive filters)

Run vector search → hydrate results via Postgres

Return ranked, explainable results to the user

Responsibilities

Design and implement scalable backend services using Node.js, Express, and TypeORM

Build and optimize hybrid search pipelines using Weaviate

Implement AI workflows using OpenAI (summarization, embeddings, query interpretation)

Develop query-understanding and intent-parsing logic

Optimize relevance, ranking, and performance of search results

Build and maintain APIs consumed by an Angular frontend

Work with PostgreSQL for transactional and relational data

Deploy and operate services within the GCP ecosystem

Collaborate closely with product to iterate quickly on search quality and UX

Tech Stack

Frontend: Angular

Backend: Node.js, Express

ORM: TypeORM

Database: PostgreSQL

Search / Vector DB: Weaviate

AI: OpenAI (summaries, embeddings, query interpretation)

Cloud: Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of experience as a backend or full-stack engineer
  • Strong proficiency in Node.js and API design
  • Experience with search systems, ranking, or information retrieval
  • Hands-on experience with vector databases or semantic search
  • Solid understanding of relational databases and query optimization
  • Familiarity with GCP services (Cloud Run, GKE, Pub/Sub, BigQuery, etc.)
  • Comfortable working in fast-moving, early-stage startup environments
  • Strong systems thinking and ability to reason about tradeoffs in search relevance

Nice to Have

Experience with hybrid search (BM25 + vector)

Background in NLP, ML, or AI-powered products

Experience interpreting natural-language queries

Prior work on developer platforms, CRMs, or data aggregation products
