Lead technical delivery of the full-stack platform — frontend, backend, data infrastructure, AI-integrated workflows
Set architecture patterns, connect the pieces, and ensure the team ships reliably
Bring operational fluency to system design — partner with program leadership and operational teams to understand workflows, identify gaps, and translate that into software that transforms how work gets done
Design and build the data layer — production schemas that track every field from raw document extraction through derivation and normalization, with full audit trail
Integrate AI/ML workflows — structured LLM output, model serving, provenance tracking, evaluation infrastructure, and feedback loops that drive continuous improvement

8+ years of software engineering experience with progressive technical leadership
Deep database design — relational schema architecture, migrations, indexing, SQL fluency
PostgreSQL preferred
Full-stack development — strong backend (Python/FastAPI or equivalent), frontend (React, NextJS preferred, or equivalent)
AI/ML integration experience — you build the production systems around models: serving endpoints, workflow orchestration, structured LLM output, confidence scoring
Document processing or OCR pipelines — layout analysis, structured text extraction, document understanding
Workflow system design — claim/lock patterns, status transitions, multi-stage review
Cross-functional and distributed team leadership
Cloud platform experience — GCP preferred (Cloud SQL, Cloud Run, BigQuery). AWS or Azure transfers
Bachelor’s degree in CS or related field, or equivalent experience
Preferred qualifications: Agentic AI experience — designing or building multi-step AI workflows where models plan, execute, and evaluate autonomously
UI component libraries and state management — MaterialUI (or similar design system), Redux, Zustand, or equivalent
Containerization — Docker, Kubernetes, or similar
Observability — OpenTelemetry, structured logging, drift detection
LLM orchestration or RAG architecture — LangChain, vector databases, or similar
