Build and use AI agents to accelerate engineering workflows — requirement analysis, code generation, code review, testing
Collaborate directly with PM, CS, and international engineering teams in English
Requirements
What We're Looking For
5+ years of software engineering experience, with strong backend development skills (language agnostic — .NET, Java, Go, Python, Node.js all acceptable)
Experience designing APIs, data models, and async workflows for multi-tenant SaaS systems
Proven ability to debug and resolve complex issues across multiple services, queues, and databases in production
Actively uses AI coding agents (Cursor, Copilot, Claude, or similar) as a core part of daily development workflow
Experience with AI agent architectures, tool calling, MCP, or LLM-based workflow orchestration is a strong plus
