Loxo is Hiring: Distributed Systems Engineer to Build the Future of Enterprise AI SaaS

Location: Remote (US time zones preferred) | Full-time

Are you a distributed systems wizard who dreams of architecting the backbone of a world-changing enterprise AI SaaS platform?

At Loxo, we’re a small, elite team of builders obsessed with creating one of the greatest companies in the world—and we need you to help us scale the unscalable.

We’re not here to follow trends. We’re here to redefine how enterprises leverage AI, and that starts with a rock-solid, planet-scale distributed systems foundation.

You’ll work alongside a tight-knit crew of top-tier engineers, tackling problems that demand creativity, rigor, and a relentless drive to ship excellence.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and build distributed systems that handle massive throughput, low-latency processing, and fault tolerance at scale.
  • Own the architecture of our core infrastructure—think data pipelines, real-time processing, and highly available services.
  • Collaborate with AI and product teams to ensure our systems don’t just keep up, but set the pace for innovation.
  • Solve hard problems: consistency, scalability, and performance in a world where downtime isn’t an option.

Who You Are

  • You’ve built distributed systems from the ground up—bonus if you’ve done it at scale for SaaS or AI workloads.
  • You’re fluent in tools like Kafka, Kubernetes, gRPC, or similar, and you know when to ditch the hype for what actually works.
  • You think in terms of trade-offs, not dogma—CAP theorem debates are your happy place.
  • You’re a doer who thrives in small teams where your impact is massive and bureaucracy is zero.
  • You’re not just good—you’re the person other engineers call when the system’s on fire.

Why Loxo?

Small team, huge ownership: You’ll shape the tech and the company.

Elite peers: Work with people as driven and talented as you are.

Mission that matters: We’re building AI that transforms enterprises, not just another widget.

No BS: We move fast, cut the fluff, and reward results.

100% remote work. We trust our team and don't micromanage or have bureaucracy.

Competitive comp and benefits—because world-class talent deserves world-class rewards and coworkers to do world-class things with. If you’re ready to build something legendary apply to this link here.

Loxo: Where the best come to build the future.
