Primary Responsibilities

• Build production software - Design and implement scalable backend services, APIs, and data pipelines with a focus on reliability, performance, and maintainability
  
• Develop agentic systems - Create autonomous agents that leverage LLMs to reason, use tools, and orchestrate complex multi-step workflows
  
• Architect for scale - Design systems that handle real-time AI inference, conversation state, and tool execution with proper error handling and recovery
  
• Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models that drive product features, improve user engagement, and enhance decision-making processes
  
• Collaborate cross-functionally - Partner with Product, Design, and Engineering teams to define requirements and deliver AI-powered features.
  
• Maintain engineering excellence - Write clean, well-tested code; conduct thorough code reviews; champion best practices across the team
  
• Stay current - Evaluate emerging agentic frameworks, patterns, and tools; prototype new approaches to solve real problems
