• Own prototypes, products, and features end-to-end, from conception and design through deployment and monitoring.

Core Requirements

• Expert proficiency in Python for backend systems and JavaScript for backend and frontend development, using modern frameworks to build, ship, and maintain reliable, high-quality software.
• Strong understanding of large language models and diffusion models, including training and inference trade-offs, with the ability to apply that knowledge to practical, scalable, customer-facing products.
• Experience working in lean, high-velocity product teams, taking ownership of features from initial concept and lightweight prototyping through delivery, with a clear focus on customer value.
• Clear and effective communicator and collaborator, able to work closely with product, design, and engineering partners to deliver impactful solutions.
• Comfortable with asynchronous work across a distributed team.

Bonus Qualifications
