Job Description
We’re not adding AI features. We’re rebuilding what’s possible. Gecko builds software that helps the world’s leading universities connect with their students. We’ve facilitated over 200 million interactions across well over 150 institutions globally, and right now, we’re at one of the most exciting points in our history, building Gecko AI, an intelligence layer that will change how institutions operate at scale.

Your backend fundamentals are strong and you know how to reason through complex systems, make sensible trade-offs, and
