Senior Backend Engineer

At Serval, we’re building the AI platform for IT teams. Our goal is to take on legacy players like ServiceNow, a $230+ bn company, by building the platform for AI agents to resolve IT issues instead of humans. Serval “automates the automation,” using a natural language‑to‑code workflow builder and AI agents that discover and deliver automations for tedious IT workflows. Our mission is to free IT departments from the #helpdesk channel by creating the simplest way to automate employee onboarding / offboarding, software access management, and the long tail of employee requests. Long term, our vision extends to developing a universal workflow automation platform for all business functions. Serval was founded by product and engineering leaders from Verkada and is backed by industry‑leading investors like First Round, General Catalyst, Alt Capital, and Box Group.
