• Embrace and experiment with AI tools to optimize workflows and explore new approaches to problem-solving

What You Bring

• 3+ years of experience in backend application development
• Strong skills in Python (or strong interest in learning it)
• Solid understanding of microservices architectures and relational databases (ideally PostgreSQL)
• Experience with cloud environments and containerization tools (e.g., AWS, Docker)
• Familiarity with DevOps practices and CI/CD pipelines
• Comfortable using AI tools to assist with coding, documentation, content generation, or task automation

Technologies We Use

• You aspire to write clean, maintainable, and high-quality code
