3+ years building production backend or distributed systems (pre-AI experience required)

Has built AI agents, skills, tools, or MCP (Model Context Protocol) integrations
Python
Proficient for backend development
Secondary Language
Working knowledge of Go, TypeScript, or Rust

Deep experience with AWS/GCP/Azure — cost optimization, compute decisions, not just deployment

LLM Evaluation
Understands how to evaluate LLM outputs and the inherent challenges (non-determinism, quality measurement, regression detection)
