- Engage directly with non-technical users to understand application issues, feedback and enhancement requests.

- Experience developing enhancements and modifying existing applications, rather than working exclusively on greenfield development.
- Experience supporting software or AI applications after they have been deployed into production.
- Strong troubleshooting and root-cause-analysis skills.
- Ability to move comfortably between reviewing code, investigating logs, understanding user-reported behavior and implementing a solution.
- A proactive approach to identifying repetitive issues and determining how they can be automated.

Specific LLM or agent frameworks are not required.
- Python & TypeScript Development: 5+ years of software engineering experience with Python and TypeScript, with the ability to troubleshoot existing code, resolve defects, build enhancements and contribute to AI-driven automation.
