• Guide and mentor 1-3 developers through code reviews, planning, and technical guidance.

• Make technical and architecture decisions and explain them clearly to product and leadership teams.

• Set up and maintain testing, CI/CD, logging, and monitoring.

• Monitor the production system and handle technical issues and incidents.

• Track AI performance, response quality, speed, and usage costs.

• Improve prompts and AI logic as models and requirements change.

• Follow secure coding practices and protect customer and personal data.

• Continue developing new features and improvements after the product goes live.

Required Skills

• 7+ years of professional software development experience.

• 1-2+ years of experience building and supporting AI/LLM features in production.

• Strong experience with Python and backend API development.

• Strong knowledge of PostgreSQL, database design, SQL, indexing, and performance tuning.

• Good experience with React and TypeScript.

• Strong understanding of LLMs, prompt design, tool/function calling, retries, rate limits, and handling incorrect AI responses.

• Experience using AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Copilot.

• Experience leading or mentoring developers while continuing to code hands-on.

• Experience supporting production applications, including monitoring, incident handling, and root-cause analysis.

• Good written and spoken English.

Preferred Skills

• Experience with RAG, embeddings, and pgvector.

• Experience with LangGraph, Claude Agent SDK, or MCP.

• Experience with LLM testing, monitoring, and cost management.

• Knowledge of Microsoft Azure, Docker, and CI/CD.
