  • Strong knowledge of data modeling, performance optimization, and scalable system design.

  • Familiarity with machine learning including LLMs.

  • Experience building Frontends with React.JS.

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills across technical and non-technical teams.

Bonus Points

  • Experience managing infrastructure as code (Terraform, Pulumi, etc.).

  • Experience working with CAD software.

  • Background in computer graphics, simulation, or physics-based systems.

  • Experience building or working with Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs).

  • Experience deploying or integrating machine learning systems into production environments.

  • Familiarity with Kubernetes-based production environments.

Our Tech Stack

  • Google Cloud, AWS
