Strong programming skills in Python and familiarity with ML frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, or similar.
Proficiency with at least one backend frameworks and databases (e.g. Postgres/MySQL).
Practical experience through internships or personal projects.

Nice-to-Have:

Familiarity with cloud services (AWS, GCP, Azure) and server management via shell.
Experience with Python backends, FastAPI, and frameworks like LLM (LangChain, Llama Index).
Knowledge of vector databases and advanced database management systems.
Knowledge of 2D graphics editors and SVG (yep, it gets quite nitty gritty).
Experience working within a start-up.

Our Tech Stack:

Frontend: NextJS, Zustand, Tailwind, Prisma
Backend: Python, FastAPI, Llama Index, NestJS for microservices
Database: PostgreSQL
Vector Database: PGVector
LLM: Azure OpenAI

Benefits:

Future equity package to be determined
Fully remote work environment with flexible scheduling (we would love for you to be able to travel every 3 months to meet in person).
Company-provided laptop and a software budget tailored to your needs.
Budget for attending conferences (AI Engineer, Figma Config, WebSummit and more).
Extraordinary quarterly fully-paid trips across Europe, including accommodations and flights, to foster team bonding and creativity (our next trips are to San Francisco and Lisbon) 🌎.
