What you'll work on
The event-driven ingestion pipeline: S3 uploads → Lambda processors → Postgres, with idempotent processing, stale-work reaping, and back-pressure at scale.
The AI enrichment and researcher system – orchestrating LLM-backed agents, handling contradictions, and keeping cost and latency in check.
The public REST API (Hono), its typed schemas, and the generated clients that consume it.
Authentication, SSO/SAML federation, and multi-tenant identity and authorization.
Data modeling and schema evolution you can ship without downtime.
6+ years building and operating production backend systems, ideally distributed or event-driven on a major cloud (AWS a strong plus).
Deep SQL and relational data modeling – you think in terms of indexes, transactions, and safe schema migrations, and you've been burned by a bad one and learned from it.
Strong API design instincts and a bias for typed, contract-first interfaces.
Comfortable owning reliability and observability for the services you build.
Fluent – or eager to become fluent – with agentic coding tools as a force multiplier.
