Fullstack Engineer JR (Backend + AI) (NW - FS - 20260609)

• Build API endpoints — write DRF serializers and viewsets serving data to a React frontend, working with complex models (JSONFields, custom managers, mixin patterns).

• Extend AI agent capabilities — add new tools to agents; work on context engineering, and retrieval systems.

• Write async task workers — build and debug distributed RQ worker logic covering document parsing (PDF, Excel, PowerPoint) and LLM inference pipelines.

• Improve test coverage — write pytest tests with real database fixtures, mock external APIs, and catch N+1 query issues.

• Ship frontend features — build React/TypeScript components wired to TanStack Query, styled with SCSS Modules; work with rich text, interactive charts, and virtualized tables.

• Debug AI output — diagnose and fix hallucinations and retrieval failures in agent pipelines.

Required

• Solid Python fundamentals — classes, tracebacks, data structures, without over-relying on AI autocomplete.

• Familiarity with web APIs: HTTP methods, JSON serialization, request/response cycles.

• Comfort with Git: branching, rebasing, resolving merge conflicts.

• Experience with at least one relational database: SQL queries and basic schema design.

• Comfortable working with AI-based tools like Cursor, Claude Code, etc.

• Genuine curiosity about AI/ML — LLM API usage, a RAG pipeline, or serious experimentation beyond chatting with ChatGPT.

• Ability to debug AI-generated code — shipping broken AI output is worse than writing it yourself.

Nice to Have

• Django or Flask experience.

• React/TypeScript exposure, even from a personal project.

• Familiarity with Docker and containerized development.

• Experience with vector databases, embeddings, or LLM orchestration (LangChain, LangGraph, etc.).

• A deployed project you can demo — valued more than GPA.
