Integrate with platform APIs, develop multimodal pipelines, and implement automated testing and evaluation pipelines for reliable AI solutions. ## Job description Aghanim is an integrated commerce, liveops automation, community engagement, and payments platform for video games. Mobile games have traditionally depended on app stores for distribution, payments, and player relationships. We believe there is a better way. Aghanim helps game studios build direct relationships with players, sell directly, and build their future on their own terms. Today, more than 100 games worldwide are already building this future with Aghanim. Our team brings together people across Los Angeles, New York, Seoul, Beijing, London, Lisbon, Belgrade and other locations around the globe, with deep expertise in gaming, fintech and technology. We move quickly, keep communication direct, and focus on getting things done. We believe the best people thrive when they have autonomy, ownership, and a stake in the company's success. We’re looking for two Senior Full-Stack AI Engineers to help us develop Newton, Aghanim’s AI product for partners. Newton is already a working product with an established architecture. Your role is to ship features across the backend and frontend, build new agent capabilities, and own the engineering quality of what you deliver. You’ll work closely with product and design to understand what partners need, translate specifications into reliable software, and challenge requirements when something does not add up. Product direction, design, and infrastructure have dedicated owners, so your focus is engineering execution. ## Key Responsibilities - Deliver features from specifications and designs to production, covering database schemas, APIs, agent capabilities, React interfaces, tests, and deployment. - Build agent tools and skills, integrate with Aghanim’s Dashboard API, and access analytical data through the data gateway. - Version and test prompts, tools, and skills; evaluate answer quality and manage runtime costs and failure handling. - Design modules and API contracts within the existing architecture, proposing improvements when implementation reveals gaps. Tech stack: TypeScript, React, Cloudflare Workers, Durable Objects, AI Gateway, Cloudflare OS agent core, Postgres (Supabase), Cube.js, BigQuery, Vitest. Newton currently runs on Claude, with configurable model selection. Required Qualifications - Strong production experience across both backend and frontend with TypeScript, React, SQL, Postgres, and API design. - A track record of shipping features quickly while maintaining code quality and reliability. - Hands-on experience with production LLM applications, including agents, tool calling, structured outputs, and quality evaluation. - Ability to understand product needs, challenge unclear requirements, and work independently within an established architecture. - Daily use of AI coding agents, with a clear approach to reviewing, testing, and validating their output. Important: Commercial experience is required; personal projects alone are not sufficient. ## Preferred Qualifications - Experience with Cloudflare Workers, Durable Objects, or AI Gateway. - Familiarity with Supabase, Cube.js, or BigQuery. - Experience building products for games, monetization, or B2B dashboards. ## Why Join Us - World-class team – work alongside experienced professionals from around the globe who have built products used by millions of players - High growth, high impact – be part of a fast-growing company where ideas turn into products and reach customers in days, not months - Autonomy and ownership – we trust people to make decisions, take initiative, and drive results - Modern tools and technology – use AI, automation, and modern tools as part of your everyday work - Equity – participate in the company's growth and long-term success ## About Aghanim ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Aghanim provides an integrated direct-to-consumer commerce, payments, community engagement, and liveops automation platform for mobile game developers. - **Entity Type**: Private (Seed stage) - **Headquarters**: Los Angeles, California, United States (also registered in Newark, Delaware) - **Founded**: 2023 - **Founders**: Constantin Andry, Konstantin Golubitsky, Albert Tugushev (former CEO, CTO, and engineer of Xsolla Labs respectively) ## Core Business - Primary industry: Mobile gaming (fintech & commerce enablement) - Target customers: B2B — mobile game developers and publishers - Mission: “We help game developers achieve financial and creative independence by providing the solutions they need to launch, run, and grow their businesses.” ## Products & Services - **Commerce Engine**: Monetization tools for virtual goods, currency packs, lootboxes, passes, subscriptions — all hosted on the web outside the app store. - **Merchant of Record (MoR)**: Handles payment processing, global taxation, fraud/chargeback management, and compliance (sales, delivery, returns). - **Marketing & Retention Suite**: Email, browser, and in-app push notifications; segmentation & LiveOps automation; predictive analytics; affiliate/referral programs. - **Community Engagement**: Web-based metagame experiences – news, events, leaderboards, guides, chat, giveaways, and incentives. - **Payouts**: Revenue share and instant payouts for developers. - **Fraud Detection**: Integrated with Sift for best-in-class protection. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed (last reported funding is Seed) - **Key Metric**: Total funding raised – **$1.52M** (Seed VC, announced February 2024 with additional round in August 2024) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Bessemer Venture Partners, QED Investors, Point72 Ventures, a16z Speedrun, Andreessen Horowitz, J.P. Morgan (primary operating bank), Adyen (payment processing partner), Sift (fraud prevention) - **Growth Signals**: - Launched public platform access in August 2024. - Hired Conor McLaughlin as CRO and Valentina Sevodina as COO in early 2026. - Monthly web traffic ~2.2M visits with +1785% yearly growth (as of mid-2025). - Partnerships with Adyen, J.P. Morgan, and Sift indicate strong enterprise traction. - Advisory board includes former gaming/payments leaders. ## Competitive Advantages - **Founding team pedigree**: Ex-Xsolla leadership (the company that scaled to $200M+ in revenue) – deep domain expertise in gaming payments. - **All-in-one platform**: Combines commerce, payments, community, retention, and fraud – reducing the need for multiple vendors. - **Web-first DTC model**: Enables mobile game developers to bypass app store commissions (15–30%) and own the player relationship directly. - **Global compliance built-in**: Handles tax, fraud, and chargebacks across 200+ territories. ## Strategic Focus - Expand developer adoption of direct-to-consumer monetization. - Deepen integrations with mobile game engines and analytics tools. - Build out the liveops and community engagement features to increase player LTV. - Grow the partner ecosystem (payments, fraud, analytics) to offer a turnkey solution. - Scale team from its current ~8 employees to support rapid customer growth. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Fast-moving, lean startup with flat structure; founders are hands-on and previously built a global company (Xsolla). - **Remote/Hybrid**: Headquarters in Los Angeles (Woodland Hills area) with additional offices in New York City and Lisbon. Roles likely hybrid/remote-friendly depending on function. - **Engineering Culture**: Heavy focus on payments infrastructure, data engineering, and platform scalability. Team includes engineers from Xsolla, Microsoft, and Liftoff. - **Growth Trajectory**: Joining at very early stage (Seed) with significant funding from top VCs – high potential for ownership and impact. - **Notable Perks**: Not explicitly stated, but typical for seed-stage fintech/gaming startups – equity, flexible hours, and direct exposure to founders. ## Sources 1.
