  • Scalable Systems Builder: Demonstrated experience architecting and delivering high-availability services and distributed systems, leveraging patterns for reliability, performance, and security.
  • Cloud-Native Engineering: Deep familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure), including hands-on experience with serverless technologies (e.g., AWS Lambda), infrastructure-as-code, and automated deployment pipelines.
  • Data Fluency: Solid experience with both SQL and NoSQL databases; knowledge of vector databases and embedding/search technologies is a big plus.
  • AI Platform Integration: Experience integrating with modern AI services (OpenAI, Hugging Face, etc.), and enthusiasm for collaborating with ML/AI specialists to bring LLMs, RAG, and conversational AI capabilities into production.
  • SRE / Reliability Focus: Strong understanding of operational excellence–monitoring, observability, incident response, and designing for system resiliency at scale.
  • Results-Oriented Delivery: A track record of shipping consumer-facing features at scale, collaborating closely with both product and engineering teams.

Forward-Thinking Problem Solver: Eager to explore new technologies, solving complex problems using both solid engineering fundamentals and innovative approaches.
