Who We’re Looking For

We're a small, fast-moving team building an AI platform. You'll be a builder first — shipping full-stack features end to end across our Python backend and React frontend, working hands-on with LLMs. You'll have real ownership from day one, act as a strong second set of eyes in code review, and over time help us harden how we ship (CI/CD, release reliability). This is a hands-on-keyboard role for someone who wants to build, not manage.

What You'll Do

  • Build full-stack features across the product — Python/FastAPI services on the backend, React on the frontend.
  • Design and ship LLM-powered functionality: integrations, prompting/orchestration, evaluation, and the platform plumbing around it.
  • Be a high-trust code reviewer — raise the bar on quality, catch issues early, and help keep the review queue moving.
  • Own your work end to end: scope, build, test, and ship, with strong instincts for what "done and reliable" means.
  • Over time, help own CI/CD and release engineering — gated pipelines, staging, automated checks, rollback — so shipping stays safe and fast as we grow.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Strong full-stack ability with Python and React; comfortable owning a feature from API to UI.
  • Experience building with LLMs / AI products — not just calling an API, but reasoning about reliability, cost, and quality.
  • High ownership and follow-through; you ship and you finish.
  • Background at an established/larger engineering org — you've seen mature engineering process and can bring that discipline to a small team.
  • Security experience or instincts (secrets handling, access control, secure-by-default thinking).
  • CI/CD and release engineering experience — building gated pipelines, automated deploys, staging environments, rollback.
  • 2+ years of technical leadership or mentorship (tech lead, senior IC who's grown others). Note: this remains a hands-on IC role.
  • API testing, observability, or infrastructure-as-code exposure.
