The Role

We are looking for an experienced Python Developer to play a pivotal role in our engineering team. This position is essential for bridging prototypes and R&D advancements—primarily developed in Python—with our existing production platform.

You will be responsible for integrating the latest AI features in collaboration with the backend team, which maintains and develops backend services in Scala on an AWS infrastructure, ensuring robustness and performance at scale.

You will play a key role in designing, developing, and optimizing systems that handle the integration of large volumes of unstructured data (comments, conversations, reviews, etc.) from various CX sources, feeding our AI solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Python Back-end Development: Design, develop, and maintain robust, high-performance, and scalable backend services (including REST APIs and microservices).
• Data & AI Pipelines: Work on critical data enrichment pipelines for our models, including the integration of proprietary models and large language models (LLMs).
• System Architecture & Design: Actively participate in discussions on system design, software architecture, data structures, and technology choices. Your expertise will be valued from the earliest stages.
• R&D Collaboration: Work closely with the Applied Research team to transform prototypes and proofs of concept (PoCs) into features ready for integration into the platform.

Required Qualifications

• Education: Bachelor’s degree or higher in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Experience: 3–5 years in a similar role as a Back-end Developer, Software Engineer, or AI/Data Pipeline Engineer.
• Python Expertise: Proven expertise in Python and associated backend development frameworks.
• Architecture: Strong understanding of API design principles and microservice architecture.
• Data: Significant experience designing and optimizing data structures.

Assets / Nice-to-Have

• AI/Agent-based Applications: Experience developing or maintaining applications that integrate AI components, including familiarity with agent-based architectures.
• AI in Development (AIOps/DevOps): Interest or openness to using AI directly in the development process (coding assistance, code review, testing, etc.). We are looking for a curious individual who can help transform and optimize our internal practices.
• Cloud Infrastructure: Good knowledge and hands-on experience with AWS infrastructure (EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS, etc.).
• Functional Programming: Curiosity or interest in functional programming. Most of our critical backend services are developed in Scala, and interest in these paradigms is highly valued.
