Introduction
We are looking for a Backend Developer to join our expert team for a long-term project.
Task
- Own and deliver well-defined stories independently, with a clear grasp of team architecture, frameworks, and tools.
- Actively contribute to code reviews, testing practices, and maintain service stability.
- Support and guide junior engineers (SE-I), fostering collaboration, knowledge sharing, and constructive feedback.
- Maintain healthy development flow by adhering to Agile processes and driving iterative enhancements.
- Use AI tools to accelerate coding, debugging, testing, research, and code reviews, always validating outputs and applying judgment.
- Understand core LLM concepts (e.g., tokens, context length, hallucinations), recognize safe vs. unsafe use cases, and flag ethical, privacy, or cost concerns
Requirements
- 3–5 years of professional software engineering experience.
- Familiar with core AI concepts (tokens, context length, embeddings, hallucinations), understands high-level LLM behavior, and recognizes safe vs. unsafe use cases (privacy, security, fairness).
- AI Tooling & Practices: Uses AI to boost productivity (e.g., test scenarios, architecture drafts, research), skilled in prompt engineering (instruction vs. few-shot), and evaluates AI outputs responsibly (bias, cost, ethics).
- Backend Proficiency: Builds RESTful APIs with Node.js/TypeScript, works with Docker/container workflows, employs Git for version control, and has hands-on experience with SQL databases (e.g., PostgreSQL).
- Cloud & infrastructure basics: Hands-on with AWS services; familiarity with infrastructure as code (CDK, Terraform) is a plus.
- CI/CD mindset: Experience or interest in CI/CD pipeline setup and exploring AI-assisted DevOps tooling.
- Collaboration & communication: Comfortable discussing architectural decisions, documenting designs (potentially with AI assistance), and presenting technical ideas clearly.
