Design, build, and operate scalable backend services and APIs that ingest, transform, retrieve, and serve context to agents and product applications.
Own batch and real-time data flows, including event ingestion, transformation, indexing, storage, and low-latency serving.
Develop reusable capabilities for agent context, including connectors, context assembly, memory and state interfaces, metadata and provenance, authorization-aware retrieval, and evaluation signals.
Define data models, schemas, and contracts, and implement validation, lineage, freshness checks, and observability as upstream systems evolve.
Select storage and retrieval patterns across operational databases, data warehouses and lakes, search systems, caches, and graph or vector technologies based on access patterns.
Establish SLIs and SLOs, monitor latency and correctness, plan capacity, manage costs, and design graceful failure and recovery paths.
Translate ambiguous context needs into durable platform abstractions and lead technical designs through implementation, rollout, measurement, and adoption.
Improve engineering velocity through well-designed SDKs, tools, documentation, deployment patterns, and paved paths.
Mentor engineers and raise the bar for backend architecture, data quality, operational excellence, and the responsible use of context.
8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including ownership of production backend or distributed systems at meaningful scale.
Strong programming skills in at least one modern language, such as Go, Python, Java, or Rust, along with proficiency in SQL and data modeling.
Experience designing and operating APIs, asynchronous workflows, and data-intensive systems with demanding reliability, scalability, latency, and data-quality requirements.
Experience with modern data infrastructure, including streaming or messaging systems, batch processing, operational databases, and cloud-based data platforms.
Sound technical judgment regarding data consistency, schema evolution, privacy and access control, failure handling, performance, and cost.
Experience with AWS, Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform or CloudFormation, CI/CD, and modern software delivery practices.
Ability to lead ambiguous technical problems from architecture through adoption, delivering incrementally and improving systems based on evidence.
