## Description

Als Senior Backend Engineer Amsterdam help je organisaties om moderne backendplatformen en GenAI-systemen naar productie te brengen. Je bouwt schaalbare backend services en platformcomponenten rondom foundation models en LLM's, waarbij de focus ligt op orchestration, integrations, APIs, event flows en reliability, niet op het trainen van modellen zelf.

Je werkt aan cloud-native en event-driven architecturen waarin AI-functionaliteit onderdeel wordt van bestaande software ecosystemen. Denk aan backendplatformen met RAG pipelines, enterprise integrations, observability tooling en multi-agent orchestration binnen complexe productieomgevingen.

Projecten zijn langdurig.Je blijft betrokken nadat systemen live gaan en helpt deze verder schalen, verbeteren en operationaliseren. Dit gaat niet om demo's of hype, maar om serieuze backend engineering binnen AI-native platformen.

Groeimogelijkheden

Je krijgt de vrijheid om te groeien in de richting die bij jouw ambitie past: van technisch leiderschap tot public speaking, developer advocacy, alles is hier mogelijk!
