As a remote-first organization, they offer exceptional flexibility, a 30-day annual leave policy (including company-wide shutdown days), and a dedicated budget for your choice of AI coding assistants and frontier models like GPT-4 and Claude. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have a proven track record of shipping production-grade software in cloud-native environments (AWS/GCP/Azure). * Are experienced with prompt engineering and building applications powered by LLMs or agentic frameworks. * Thrive in high-autonomy environments where you define the scope of ambiguous projects. * Already use observability tools and want to automate incident response and system troubleshooting.
