- Required: 3+ years building production backend systems, ideally in Python or TypeScript/Node
- Comfort with distributed systems, queues, and event-driven architectures
- Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS or GCP), relational databases, and modern observability tooling
- Strong product instinct and ownership mindset—you can scope, ship, and iterate independently
- Nice to have: Experience with LLM agents, voice systems (telephony, ASR/TTS), browser automation, or regulated healthcare environments
COMPENSATION & DETAILS
- Salary: $70,000–$100,000 USD, depending on experience
