Job description

We are looking for a Forward Deployment and a Core Engineer with experience in Python and AWS who wants to work on complex systems, scale production solutions, and be part of a company building the autonomous engine that transforms raw data into financial truth.

What You’ll Do

• Architect the Core: Design and evolve high-performance Python services.
• Cloud Native: Build and deploy robust infrastructure on AWS using modern patterns (CDK, Lambda, DynamoDB, Timestream).
• AI Integration: Work at the frontier of LLM-based agents, integrating generative AI into production workflows.
• Ownership: Move past "tasks" to participate in architecture decisions from day one.
• Raise the Bar: Champion technical excellence and mentor the team through clean code and best practices.

Your Profile

• Python Expert: You’ve mastered FastAPI or Flask and know how to write maintainable, scalable code.
• AWS Fluent: You don't just "use" the cloud; you understand how to orchestrate it.
• Product Thinker: You have an obsession with solving real-world problems, not just moving tickets.
• Madrid Based (or willing to relocate)

Nice to Have

• Experience with LLMs or Generative AI pipelines.
• You understand the "Day 2" challenges of AI (monitoring, cost, latency).
• You use Cursor or similar AI-assisted tools to supercharge your workflow.

Why Join Us?

• Impact: You are building not maintaining.
• Zero Noise: We hate bureaucracy. We value high autonomy, deep focus, and technical excellence.
• Top-Tier Tech: A high-level environment with a clear vision and ownership of your domain.
• Growth: Real, rapid opportunities to scale with a company that is defining the "Autonomous Finance" category.
