Our Client

Our client builds AI agents that automate complex reasoning tasks in the legal industry (think time tracking and billing analysis, case data extraction and correlation analysis, etc.) Their team of data scientists and full-stack developers excels at the rapid development of accurate, explainable, and repeatable AI solutions. Right now, they are seeking a Python Developer to join their team in building cutting-edge AI solutions. You'll work on challenging problems at the intersection of large language models, knowledge engineering, and enterprise software development. This role offers the opportunity to work with emerging AI technologies while delivering practical value to industry clients.

About You

You're a hands-on developer who thrives on solving complex technical challenges and navigating ambiguity. You have strong software engineering fundamentals and experience building production-grade systems. You're excited about the possibilities of AI but grounded in the practical realities of building reliable software. You excel at asking hard questions to uncover true customer challenges and can translate complex requirements into intuitive solutions using simple, composable design patterns. While comfortable working independently, you know when to seek input from the team and how to drive clarity in uncertain situations.
