We’re looking for a builder with a backend backbone—someone who can spot an opportunity, sketch a solution, and ship a working service fast. You’ll turn AI ideas into production-grade APIs and microservices, then iterate based on real data and feedback.

You’ll work at the edge of what’s possible with LLMs, RAG pipelines, and vector-based retrieval. The mission: wire up smart systems that automate workflows, elevate productivity, and make AI feel less like magic and more like reliable infrastructure.

• Design, build, and scale backend services and RESTful APIs to power AI-driven features.

• Define KPIs, run experiments, and optimize systems based on metrics and data.
• Collaborate across product, data, and engineering to translate ideas into robust, shippable systems.
• Stay current with the evolving LLM/agent ecosystem and rapidly apply new tools or protocols (e.g., MCP).

• 5+ years of professional software development experience with a strong backend focus.
• Experience with advanced LLM workflows: prompt engineering, inference optimization, fine-tuning, and evaluation.
• Demonstrated experience integrating generative models with external knowledge (via RAG or similar patterns).
• Practical knowledge of embeddings and vector databases (e.g. FAISS, Pinecone).
• Experience building and scaling data pipelines for LLM ingestion and retrieval.
• Strong communication skills, bias for action, and ability to thrive in fast-paced environments.

• Previous work with agent frameworks or context protocols.
• Experience with Agile practices and a habit of staying on top of AI research and tooling.
