Job description
Our client is building an AI workspace for document-heavy industries. The platform automates complex workflows, extracts high-value insights from unstructured documents, and enables enterprise teams to make faster, better decisions at scale.

- Lead technical design across critical product areas, balancing speed, quality, and long-term maintainability
- Work closely with product and commercial teams to translate real customer problems into robust technical solutions
- Set engineering standards and mentor senior engineers through architecture reviews and technical guidance
- Leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) to accelerate delivery
- Drive continuous improvement in system reliability, performance, and security
What Weâre Looking For
- Proven experience operating at Staff or Principal level in high-growth or technically demanding environments
- Deep expertise in Python and backend system design
- Strong track record of owning business-critical systems from concept through production and scale
- Experience building and maintaining high-quality APIs and integrations
- Practical experience applying AI/LLM-based systems in real production environments
- Excellent architectural judgment and the ability to make high-impact technical decisions
- Clear, confident communicator who can influence across engineering, product, and leadership
- Strong product intuition and commercial awareness
Nice to Have
- Experience with agentic workflows, orchestration, or complex AI pipelines
- Past experience in real estate, law, or finance
- Experience designing modular or distributed systems
- Open-source contributions or visible technical leadership
If youâre looking to build something extraordinary, then apply today.
