Build scalable APIs with FastAPI (or similar), Python, and modern web tooling
Design and maintain ML model serving infrastructure
Collaborate with ML engineers on training and deployment workflows
Own deployment: Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD pipelines
Build a slick analytics frontend using React or similar

Proven experience scaling cloud-native systems (AWS, microservices, IaC)
Kubernetes + Terraform expertise in production environments
Solid understanding of ML deployment (e.g. PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX)
Frontend skills with React/TypeScript or similar
Bonus: big data / real-time analytics / multi-cloudWhy Join?

Equity with serious upside and rapidly rising valuation — early-stage, high-impact
Work at the cutting edge of ML systems and optimisation
Autonomy and ownership from day one
 Fast growth path — help define both tech and culture
 Close-knit, no-ego team of engineers and researcher
