Required qualifications

• Strong Python in production with FastAPI or a comparable framework
• Real PostgreSQL depth including schema design, indexing, query performance, and migrations

• Data-integrity instincts
• Ability to debug across application, database, network, and cloud service layers
• Fluent use of AI tools such as Claude, Claude Code, or Cowork
• Comfort with ambiguity and ownership
• Clear technical writing

Nice to have

• Serving or integrating model inference in a production path
• Annotation, labelling, or any human-in-the-loop review system
• Clients that must tolerate unreliable connectivity and reconcile cleanly afterwards
