Résumé du poste

GetVocal AI in Paris is seeking a Senior AI Software Engineer to design and build production-grade, real-time backend systems powering our conversational AI platform. You will own low-latency services, event-driven pipelines, and AI agent orchestration to scale with production traffic.

The role blends AI engineering, backend systems, and distributed real-time architecture, requiring strong Python, FastAPI, Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud experience.

Qualifications

• Expert-level Python skills and strong experience building production backend systems.
• Advanced knowledge of Python asynchronous programming, including asyncio, concurrency, and multiprocessing.
• Strong experience with FastAPI and API architecture.
• Experience building low-latency, high-throughput, or real-time systems in production.
• Strong understanding of distributed and event-driven system design.

Responsabilités

• Design, build, and operate production-grade backend systems powering our conversational AI platform
• Build low-latency, high-throughput services using Python, FastAPI, and asynchronous programming
• Develop real-time, event-driven systems using WebSockets, streaming technologies, queues, and parallel processing
• Design distributed architectures that remain reliable and responsive under significant production traffic
• Build and improve AI agent orchestration systems and LLM-powered applications
• Integrate LLM APIs, AI frameworks, communication infrastructure, and external AI providers into the platform
• Use technologies such as Redis and caching layers to improve latency, throughput, and system efficiency
• Profile production systems, identify performance bottlenecks, and optimise critical execution paths
• Improve system resilience, fault tolerance, observability, and production debugging capabilities
• Write comprehensive unit, integration, and load tests
• Design clean, modular, and maintainable architectures that can evolve as the product scales
• Work closely with AI, product, and engineering teams to translate agent capabilities into reliable production systems
• Use AI coding tools to accelerate development, debugging, testing, refactoring, and technical exploration
• Review and validate AI-generated code for architectural flaws, hallucinations, security issues, and maintainability risks
• Write a significant amount of production code while improving the overall engineering quality of the platform
