About the role

  • Design, build and own backend services and workflows that automate complex, multi-step processes
  • Implement reliable orchestration for long-running workflows, including state management, retries and recovery
  • Integrate unstructured data assessment into automation flows, including document analysis and external system interaction
  • Build and maintain headless and API-driven interactions with third-party tools where direct integration is limited
  • Design retrieval and context assembly flows that balance accuracy, performance and cost
  • Define and enforce clear boundaries for automated actions, validation and human intervention
  • Own application-layer integration with automation, including status, progress, confidence and recovery surfaces
  • Implement user-facing flows for initiating, monitoring, validating and overriding automated behavior
  • Ensure failures, retries and partial execution are visible and understandable to users
  • Design explainability and audit views that reflect real system behavior
  • Ensure automated workflows are observable, testable and auditable end to end
  • Optimize services for performance and cost as usage scales, with explicit focus on reducing cost to serve
  • Contribute to shared platform patterns for automation, messaging, caching, memory and state management
  • Work closely with Product, Data, Design and Security teams to ensure automation aligns with business outcomes and trust requirements
  • Continuously identify opportunities to replace manual operational work with safe, scalable automation

Requirements

  • Full professional fluency in English (written and spoken) is mandatory
  • Strong experience building production backend systems, not prototypes
  • Experience designing application behavior on top of asynchronous and long-running processes
  • Experience working with unstructured data such as documents, web content or semi-structured records
  • Experience building systems where automation replaces manual operational effort at scale
  • Understanding of retrieval, context assembly and information extraction pipelines
  • Experience managing state, memory and context across long-running workflows
  • Familiarity with caching strategies, message queues and asynchronous processing patterns
  • Ability to reason about system behavior under load, partial failure and retry conditions
  • Experience designing user-facing systems that reflect underlying system state accurately
  • Strong understanding of cost, performance and reliability trade-offs
  • Awareness of how architectural decisions impact cost to serve
  • Comfort working across backend, automation and application layers
  • Ability to collaborate closely with product, design, data and security teams
  • Clear communication and a bias toward pragmatic, maintainable solutions
Benefits
  • Competitive salary
  • Flexible working hours
  • Professional development budget
