Requirements
- •5+ years of professional software engineering experience with end-to-end ownership in a full-stack role.
- •Strong hands-on experience with Python and/or Node.js on the backend and React + TypeScript on the frontend.
- •Deep understanding of front-end state management — how to structure, scope, and evolve state as complexity grows. Familiarity with patterns like React Query / TanStack Query for server state.
- •Experience designing and working with relational data models (PostgreSQL).
- •Comfort operating in a cloud environment (GCP or similar) and deploying containerized services (Docker; Kubernetes familiarity a plus).
- •Proven experience integrating AI/ML systems into production products — especially LLMs, retrieval-augmented workflows, or agentic systems.
- •Strong product instincts: you think about UX, performance, and correctness, not just implementation.
- •Ability to reason about complex systems and make them simpler, more reliable, and easier to work with.
What You'll Do
- •Own full-stack features end-to-end — from database models and APIs to frontend integration and UX correctness.
- •Design and extend backend systems that power complex agent orchestration — subagents, skills, knowledge base retrieval, parallel execution, and long-running workflows.
- •Build and evolve REST APIs that are stable, well-typed, and easy for the frontend and agents to consume.
- •Integrate and debug LLM-powered workflows — prompts, tools, retrieval, evaluation loops — with a strong focus on reliability and observability.
- •Ensure frontend and backend systems interoperate cleanly: tight contracts, predictable data flow, and minimal friction.
- •Improve performance, resilience, and security across the stack as usage and complexity grow.
- •Use coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) as force multipliers to move faster and push quality higher.
- •Collaborate closely with product and design to turn ambiguous ideas into shipped, production-grade features.
- •Raise the technical bar through thoughtful code reviews, architectural discussions, and mentorship of junior engineers.
Nice to Have
- •Prior experience at an early-stage startup or as a founder.
- •Background working on AI-powered or data-intensive products.
