You will work on a secured data management service that will allow the storage and usage of financial data with the highest standard of privacy. You will engage with a group of sr developers to deliver front end and backend solutions with GenAI-assisted software development builder tools and workflows to generate & optimize code, build tests, serve APIs, automate ML and Stats training and development pipelines and build orchestrations to serve with continuous evaluation and model training.

Key job responsibilities
You will utilize GenAI-assisted software development on a daily basis that integrates with artificial intelligence tools like Amazon Q Developer into builder workflows to generate & optimize code, build tests, explain unfamiliar code, and learn new languages or APIs, effectively boosting your team’s productivity and code quality. Throughout the software development lifecycle, you will deploy AI tools, agents, use Model Context Protocol (MCP) and large language models (LLMs) to assist in multiple phases - from requirements analysis to coding and testing.

We are looking for individuals who thrive in a collaborative environment where they will have a high level of independence, autonomy, and ownership in what they deliver. The right candidate will wear many hats and work in a highly collaborative environment that is more startup than big company.
