Role Overview:
As a Full Stack Software Engineer, you will be a pivotal force in developing, deploying, and maintaining the end-to-end infrastructure for our advanced AI systems. This includes designing robust backend services, building intuitive and high-performance user interfaces, and ensuring the seamless integration of LLM-based AI Agents. Your expertise will bridge the gap between frontend user experience, backend scalability, and core AI infrastructure, directly impacting system efficiency, reliability, and user-facing capabilities.
What You'll Do:
- Architect, develop, and maintain scalable full-stack components, including both frontend applications (using modern frameworks like React/Vue/Angular) and robust backend services (leveraging Python/Go/Node.js).
- Design and implement APIs and data pipelines that facilitate the smooth deployment and interaction of sophisticated AI Agents and large-scale data processing workflows.
- Contribute to the development of core AI agent frameworks, focusing on features like tool integration, memory systems, and planning/orchestration modules.
- Develop and implement AI Agent evaluation methodologies and tooling to rigorously test, benchmark, and monitor agent performance, reliability, and safety in production.
- Manage and optimize cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure) to ensure high availability, cost-efficiency, and scalability for both the application layer and the underlying AI compute resources.
- Participate actively in design discussions, code reviews, and cross-team collaboration to deliver high-quality, production-grade solutions across the entire stack.
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
- 3+ years of experience building and maintaining full-stack software infrastructure, with proven expertise in both frontend and backend development.
