Who this is a fit for
- Has 5+ years of experience delivering production backend systems with at least 3 years focused on Python and service-oriented architectures.
- Demonstrates practical experience using LLM coding assistants in their daily workflow and remains eager to experiment with the latest models like Sonnet and GPT-4.
- Possesses strong relational database expertise (PostgreSQL/SQLAlchemy) and a background in operating software within AWS or Kubernetes environments.
Why this role is remarkable
- Work at the frontier of Agentic AI where your code doesn't just analyze data but automatically fixes broken records across Snowflake, Databricks, and SAP.
- Led by a serial tech entrepreneur and ex-BCG Digital Ventures engineering lead, offering a high-growth environment with zero bureaucracy and steep learning curves.
