Job description

  • Design and build scalable backend services in Python for AI and agent platforms
  • Architect systems that handle high concurrency, large volumes of data, and low-latency requirements
  • Build and operate microservices deployed on Kubernetes
  • Design systems with reliability, fault tolerance, and observability as core principles
  • Plan for horizontal scalability to support rapid growth and increasing usage
  • Work on asynchronous processing, distributed workflows, and event-driven architectures
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define platform capabilities that support AI use cases
  • Continuously improve system performance, reliability, and cost efficiency

Requirements

  • Strong proficiency in Python with experience building production-grade systems
  • Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and core computer science fundamentals
  • Experience designing and building distributed systems at scale
  • Hands-on experience with concurrency, multithreading, or asynchronous programming
  • Experience with microservices architecture and API design
  • Practical experience with Kubernetes and containerized deployments
  • Ability to design systems that account for failure scenarios, scaling challenges, and performance trade-offs, * Experience with AWS or similar cloud platforms
  • Familiarity with event-driven systems such as Kafka or pub/sub architectures
