 * 3+ years of dedicated professional experience building and shipping production software at a recognized, top-tier organization.
 * Production experience in at least one of Python, Java, Rust, C#, or C++, plus working proficiency in a second language.
 * Hands-on experience across the stack: backend services and APIs, a modern front-end framework (React or equivalent), relational or document databases, and cloud deployment.

 * Integrate pre-release model APIs into working software, including tool interfaces, evaluation harnesses, and telemetry.
 * Diagnose and document model and integration failure modes, translating engineering observations into clear written feedback for the research team.
 * Prototype quickly against shifting requirements, delivering working increments with limited up-front specification.
 * Collaborate with the engineering manager and other engineers to maintain consistency in code quality, architecture, and technical documentation.
