What You'll Do:

We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Software Engineer (LLM/Prompt-Context Engineer) with a strong full stack Python background to design, develop, and integrate intelligent systems focused on large language models (LLMs), prompt engineering, and advanced context management. In this role, you will play a critical part in architecting context-rich AI solutions, crafting effective prompts, and ensuring seamless agent interactions using frameworks like LangGraph.

  • Prompt & Context Engineering:
    Design, optimize, and evaluate prompts for LLMs to achieve precise, reliable, and contextually relevant outputs across a variety of use cases.
  • Context Management:
    Architect and implement dynamic context management strategies, including session memory, retrieval-augmented generation, and user personalization, to enhance agent performance.
  • LLM Integration:
    Integrate, fine-tune, and orchestrate LLMs within Python-based applications, leveraging APIs and custom pipelines for scalable deployment.
  • LangGraph & Agent Flows:
    Build and manage complex conversational and agent workflows using the LangGraph framework to support multi-agent or multi-step solutions.
  • Full stack Development:
    Develop robust backend services, APIs, and (optionally) front-end interfaces to enable end-to-end AI-powered applications.
  • Collaboration:
    Work closely with product, data science, and engineering teams to define requirements, run prompt experiments, and iterate quickly on solutions.
  • Evaluation & Optimization:
    Implement testing, monitoring, and evaluation pipelines to continuously improve prompt effectiveness and context handling.

What You'll Need:

  • Deep experience with fullstack Python development (FastAPI, Flask, Django; SQL/NoSQL databases).
  • Demonstrated expertise in prompt engineering for LLMs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, open-source LLMs).
  • Strong understanding of context engineering, including session management, vector search, and knowledge retrieval strategies.
  • Hands-on experience integrating AI agents and LLMs into production systems.
  • Proficient with conversational flow frameworks such as LangGraph.
  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure, containerization (Docker), and CI/CD practices.
  • Solid understanding of PostgreSQL or other relational databases, including fundamentals of database design and querying.
  • Exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.

Preferred:

  • Experience evaluating and fine-tuning LLMs or working with RAG architectures.
  • Background in information retrieval, search, or knowledge management systems.
  • Contributions to open-source LLM, agent, or prompt engineering projects.
