Software Engineer Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience, with 2+ years of professional software engineering experience.
• 2+ years working with Python and Flask or Django, plus strong RESTful API and SQL/relational database experience.
• Hands-on experience with the Anthropic SDK/API and Claude Console is a must-have.
• Comfortable building and debugging agentic loops (tool-call cycles, multi-turn agents, error recovery, self-verification) with sound judgment on when multi-agent orchestration is warranted.
• Some DevOps exposure (Docker, CI/CD, AWS/Azure), familiarity with testing libraries (pytest, jest), and strong communication skills for explaining AI behavior and tradeoffs to non-technical stakeholders.

• Develop RESTful APIs in Python and React/TypeScript front ends to support AI features.
• Own DevOps for AI services — CI/CD, Docker, cloud deployment (AWS/Azure), and monitoring/observability for agent runs.
• Design automated test frameworks covering both deterministic code and non-deterministic AI outputs, and maintain technical documentation on architecture and agent behavior.
