  • Deep knowledge of Python and at least one other backend programming language - bonus for C or Rust.
  • Strong experience in enterprise-level software development and delivering robust software to a large user base.
  • Demonstrated proficiency in core software development practices, including: version control, code review, testing, continuous integration, build systems and release pipelines
  • Experience working with Machine Learning tools or frameworks.
  • Proficiency in building scalable APIs (REST, GraphQL, or gRPC).
  • Hands-on experience with Docker and containerized workflows

Nice to Have

  • Experience working with AI/LLMs in production systems.
  • Familiarity with compilers or static analysis tools.
  • Experience with workflow orchestration, message queues (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ, Redis, Celery), or state machine design.
  • Exposure to cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
  • Familiarity with tools like PromptFlow or other workflow automation systems.

Health care plan with 100% premium coverage, including medical, dental, and vision.

  • 401k with 5% matching.
