What We’re Looking For Strong backend engineering fundamentals (Python preferred) Experience building and operating production systems Comfort with APIs, data modeling, and microservices Experience integrating third-party systems or working client-facing Cloud experience (AWS, GCP, or similar) Product mindset and high ownership mentality Bonus if you have: Experience working with LLMs or AI-powered systems Experience with RAG or structured output generation Exposure to container orchestration (Kubernetes) Who Thrives in This Role Engineers who enjoy solving messy real-world problems Builders who like autonomy and ownership People comfortable speaking to stakeholders Developers who prefer impact over bureaucracy This is a high-intensity, high-ownership environment.
