This is a high-ownership role for someone who enjoys building quickly, operating with minimal structure, and seeing their work drive immediate impact.

- Use LLMs and AI tooling pragmatically to accelerate development and enhance functionality
- Design system architectures, APIs, and async workflows
- Integrate tools with CRM, email, telephony, and internal data systems
- Own deployment, monitoring, and iteration of tools as they scale
About You
- Strong fluency in Python
- Strong backend engineering and systems design skills
- Experience building internal tools, workflow automations, or platform utilities
