- Strong ability to work with APIs, design efficient application workflows, and integrate frontend-backend components.
- Demonstrated commitment to maintainable, high-quality code through best practices such as testing, documentation, clean design principles, and the ability to instill these in others.
- Familiarity with emerging technologies in AI/ML and their practical applications.
- Excellent communication and soft skills: a people’s person with the ability to collaborate with experts from diverse professional backgrounds, both in-person and through online resources.
- Strong organizational, problem-solving, and time-management skills with a keen eye for detail.
- Perfect command of English.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in frontend and backend development, with varying levels of seniority.
- Proficiency in TypeScript, Python, Lit, and frameworks such as Flask or FastAPI.
- Hands-on experience with Web Components, Docker, Git, and CI/CD pipelines.
- Familiarity with Core Web Vitals, Lighthouse, DevTools, and Unix systems.
- Strong skills in debugging, testing, and performance optimization, including QA technologies with Python (e.g., pytest, Selenium) and JavaScript (e.g., Jest, Cypress) for E2E, integration, and unit testing.
- Nice to have: Experience with React, Next.js, server-side rendering (SSR), or static site generation (SSG).
- Familiarity with developing on and with LLMs, including tools and frameworks such as HuggingFace Transformers, OpenAI APIs, vector databases, and model-serving platforms.
- Experience with distributed computing frameworks and concepts, such as Ray, Apache Spark, or distributed training/inference across GPUs and nodes.
- Hands-on experience in algorithm development and optimization, including designing scalable and robust class structures for frontend, backend, AI/ML, and QA applications.
- Proven track record of working with cross-functional teams, collaborating with diverse experts both in-person and remotely to deliver innovative solutions.
