🚀 About Us www.fAIshion.AI

At fAIshion, we’re redefining how people shop online through cutting-edge AI — from Virtual Try-On, to Smart Size Recommendations, to Auto-Discount Matching.

We’re a fast-moving startup building a fashion tech platform that is inclusive, intelligent, and delightful. Now we’re looking for a Backend Intern who’s excited about building scalable systems and shipping real impact — fast.

🧠 What You’ll Do

  • Work directly with the founding team to design, build, and maintain backend services and APIs
  • Develop and optimize Python-based microservices that power core features (try-on, sizing, discount logic, etc.)
  • Build and document RESTful APIs to support frontend and third-party integrations
  • Assist in deploying services on AWS (e.g., Lambda, EC2, S3, RDS, CloudWatch)
  • Collaborate with frontend engineers (React-based) to ensure seamless API consumption
  • Contribute to performance tuning, error handling, and logging infrastructure
  • Participate in daily standups and product brainstorming sessions

✅ You Might Be a Fit If You:

  • Are proficient in Python and familiar with frameworks like FastAPI, Flask, or Django
  • Have experience designing or consuming REST APIs
  • Understand basic frontend concepts (React/Next.js) and how backends connect to UIs
  • Have some hands-on experience with AWS services (EC2, Lambda, S3, etc.)
  • Know your way around Git, Docker, and cloud deployment
  • Enjoy working in startup-style environments: fast, messy, full of learning
  • Are self-driven, communicative, and not afraid to ask questions

✨ Bonus Points:

  • Experience with serverless architecture or GraphQL
  • Familiarity with CI/CD tools like GitHub Actions
  • Interest in fashion tech, personalization, or recommender systems
  • Previous internship or side project experience with production deployments

🎁 What You’ll Get

  • Real impact: your code will be in production, powering real users
  • Mentorship from experienced engineers and product builders
  • Flexible hours and remote work
  • A chance to join a fast-growing startup early and shape the future of fashion tech

💡 Potential for return offer or full-time conversion

Equity options available for exceptional candidates
