Python Developer

Overview

We are hiring a Mid-to-Senior Full Stack Developer to build and extend an Agentic AI platform with strong focus on LLM workflows, orchestration, and backend systems. This role requires a highly independent engineer who can quickly understand existing codebases and deliver production-quality enhancements with minimal guidance.

Core Hiring Bar (Non-Negotiable)

• Ability to independently read, understand, and modify moderately complex Python modules (~300+ lines)
• Comfortable filling knowledge gaps through documentation and reasoning (not dependent on AI-assisted coding tools)
• Demonstrated ability to interpret existing systems and implement changes with minimal onboarding

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and enhance backend services and agentic workflows for the AI platform
• Build stateful, multi-step LLM pipelines and orchestration logic
• Design, optimize, and maintain retrieval and scoring systems
• Debug production issues using logs, traces, and system behavior
• Collaborate across teams to deliver scalable and reliable AI-driven solutions
• Implement incremental changes with strong testing and validation practices

Technical Requirements

Python (Senior Level)

• Writes clean, idiomatic Python using: 

• Type hints, dataclasses, Pydantic

• Generators and context managers

• Strong understanding of: 

• Async/await and concurrency models

• Proficient in Python standard libraries (e.g., pathlib, json, re, collections)

• Able to modify existing complex systems independently

Backend Development (FastAPI)

• Experience building and extending FastAPI services

• Strong understanding of: 

• Request lifecycle

• Dependency injection and middleware

• Multi-worker deployments and shared state (e.g., Redis)

• Able to diagnose issues using logs and traces (minimal debugger reliance)

LLM Engineering (Applied)

• Experience building production-grade LLM workflows

• Strong in: 

• Deterministic prompt design (structured outputs, low/no temperature)
