Experience:

• 7+ years of professional software engineering experience

Qualification:

• Strong full-stack depth across backend services and product surfaces
• Production experience with Python (FastAPI/Flask)
• Production experience with React + TypeScript

Role Focus:

• Architect and ship production agentic AI applications
• Design and improve retrieval systems
• Build the LLM application layer
• Ship learner-facing AI experiences and operator-facing tools
• Build evaluation infrastructure
• Implement AI safety
• Own production reliability for AI systems
• Improve answer quality, groundedness, latency, and cost
• Partner with product, design, data engineering, learning design, and platform/SRE teams

Nice to have:

• Experience shipping AI features for education, assessments, tutoring, grading, or personalized learning
• Experience with at least one AI gateway (Databricks AI Gateway, Portkey, LiteLLM, or similar)
• Production experience with at least one agentic/RAG framework — LangChain (especially ReAct + custom tools), LlamaIndex, or DSPy
• Experience with at least one AI evaluation/observability platform — RAGAS, LangSmith, Arize Phoenix, DeepEval, or similar
• Experience with workflow orchestration (Temporal, Airflow, or similar)

More skills:

Python (FastAPI), Kotlin/Java (Spring Boot), GraphQL (DGS/Apollo), REST, OpenAI (GPT-4 family), Anthropic Claude (via AWS Bedrock), Google Gemini (via Vertex AI), LangChain (ReAct agents, custom tools), Zilliz/Milvus, OpenAI embeddings, Temporal, Redis (ElastiCache), React + TypeScript, Auth0 (JWT + JWKS), AWS (ECS, Lambda, Secrets Manager), Docker, GitLab CI, New Relic, Rootly

Other:

• High ownership of technical design, delivery, and production outcomes
• Fast iteration with strong engineering discipline — testing, observability, documentation, and design reviews
• Close collaboration with product and design to turn ambiguous AI opportunities into shipped capabilities
• Practical use of AI coding tools to move faster without compromising maintainability, security, or quality
