. Candidates should be comfortable working with AI-assisted workflows and continuously evolving their approach as tools and practices advance.
The main challenges you'll face are:
- Enhancing and maintaining high-scale distributed backend systems handling millions of assets
- Solving complex data processing, enrichment, and classification problems at scale
- Maintaining performance, reliability, and engineering rigor in an AI‑assisted development environment
- Design and build scalable backend services and data pipelines for asset discovery, recognition, and enrichment
- Work on distributed systems problems
: concurrency, fault tolerance, and high-throughput processing - Integrate AI and ML capabilities into product workflows
- Contribute to architecture decisions and technical standards
- Use AI-assisted development tools as part of your daily workflow
- Mentor engineers and raise the technical bar
- Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and continuous improvement
