• Proven experience designing and building RESTful APIs within a microservices architecture.
• Solid understanding of authentication, authorization, and security best practices.
• Experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or similar cloud providers, and CI/CD practices; Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) a plus.
• Familiarity with AI tools for productivity (Claude, ChatGPT, or similar).
• Self-starter who can operate with autonomy in a fast-paced, startup environment.
• Must be located in the Raleigh, NC area.

Preferred Skills

• Experience building AI-powered features or internal tooling, such as LLM integrations, agents, or retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
• Experience designing AI system architecture, including model selection, context and prompt design, and evaluation.
• Experience training, fine-tuning, or deploying models with Google Vertex AI or similar AI/ML platforms.
• Containerization and orchestration experience (Docker, Kubernetes).

What We Offer
