- Participate in architecture and design discussions; influence technical direction as you grow into the role
- Write clean, tested, maintainable code and participate in code reviews
- Collaborate closely with engineering lead, DevOps, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into shipped software
- Help maintain and improve developer practices: CI/CD, testing, documentation, and operational excellence
Required
- 5-8 years of professional full-stack software engineering experience
- Strong proficiency with React (or comparable modern frontend framework) and Python (Django, FastAPI, or similar)
- Solid understanding of REST APIs, relational databases, and modern web application architecture
- Familiarity with containerized deployments (Docker)
- Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS/Azure) and CI/CD workflows (GitHub Actions or equivalent)
- Excellent written and verbal communication; comfortable working across time zones and with non-technical stakeholders
- Curiosity about AI/ML and a genuine interest in building AI-powered products
Strongly Preferred
- Experience integrating with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar) in production
- Familiarity with one or more of: agent orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, LangChain), vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate), or RAG architectures

- Experience with workflow automation platforms (n8n, Zapier, Temporal, or similar)
Nice to Have
