  • Bachelors degree in Computer Science or a related field (Masters degree preferred)
  • Strong proficiency in Python Strong experience in at least one of the following: C++, C#, or Java
  • Proven experience building platforms, frameworks, and APIs (not just applications)

  • Strong understanding of API design, distributed systems, and cloud-native architectures
  • Experience taking systems from design through production deployment and operation

Preferred Qualifications 

  • Experience designing multi-tenant or enterprise AI platforms
  • Familiarity with MLOps or LLMOps concepts (model lifecycle, monitoring, evaluation)
  • Experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
  • Knowledge of authentication, authorization, and secure API design
  • Experience supporting developer platforms or internal tooling

What Were Looking For

  • A platform-first mindset — you enjoy building reusable systems that enable other teams
  • Strong engineering fundamentals and attention to production quality
  • Comfort working across cloud services, APIs, and distributed systems
  • Ability to collaborate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
