Kotlin or Python as primary proficiency, with comfort contributing to both.
Experience designing/building/operating shared GenAI infrastructure: LLM routing; vector search and RAG infrastructure; MCP gateway; AI observability and evaluation tooling.
Strong distributed?systems fundamentals: async workflows, idempotency, failure design.
Hands?on production experience with LLM APIs.
AI?security mindset: prompt injection, PII in logs, credential handling.
Agent & harness engineering fluency, with concrete evidence of building/operating this kind of tooling, not just using it.
Comfortable with the client's current daily tools: Claude Code and GitHub Copilot.
