Senior Software Engineer (Python)

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience.
  
• Deep expertise in Node.js/TypeScript, strong proficiency in frontend and React.
  
• Proven DevOps/Platform chops: Docker, Terraform, CI/CD (GitHub Actions or similar), monitoring/metrics/logging (Grafana/Prometheus/OpenTelemetry, CloudWatch).
  
• Strong systems thinking: concurrency, backpressure, caching, idempotency, failure isolation.
  
• Experience shipping and operating large-scale distributed systems; comfortable with on-call rotations.
  
• Startup DNA: bias to action, crisp communication, collaborative and low-ego.
  

• Design, build, and maintain production features and services in Node.js (TypeScript) and Go, with clean contracts to the React Typescript front-end.
  
• Work on AWS deployment and operations: ECS/Fargate, EKS, ECR, RDS, DynamoDB, S3, CloudFront, SQS/SNS, IAM; infrastructure as code (Terraform).
  
• Establish and run CI/CD and release management for daily production deployments; improve rollbacks, canaries, and testing.
  
• Own performance and reliability for web sockets, eventing, and API throughput at scale; set SLOs and build dashboards/alerts.
  
• Partner with the Conversational AI team to productionize LLM-driven features (latency budgets, fallbacks, evaluation hooks).
  
• Collaborate tightly with Product and Customer teams to translate enterprise workflows into robust, secure software.

• Senior/Staff engineers from high-growth SaaS (platform/backend focus).
  
• Candidates who’ve owned CI/CD + IaC + production reliability at scale.
  
• Comfortable moving from design doc → PR → on-call.
  Not the Persona
  
•  
• Engineers who have not worked with production grade applications at scale.
  
• Engineers who vibe code everything and blindly trusts AI agents.
  
• Engineers who dislike fast release cadences.
