What You’ll Do
Design and Build
- Develop reliable, high-performance software components and services that support our AI-driven platform.
- Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code following modern design and development best practices.
- Learn and apply scalable, cloud-based engineering patterns (e.g., microservices, APIs, distributed systems).
- Stay curious about new tools, technologies, and AI trends — and bring those ideas to the team.
Collaboration
- Work closely with AI engineers, backend and frontend developers, designers, and product managers to turn product ideas into real features.
- Participate in design discussions and code reviews to share knowledge and improve team quality.
- Communicate your progress and challenges clearly, helping the team stay aligned.
- Learn from senior engineers and contribute to a culture of teamwork and learning.
Operational Excellence
- Help ensure that new features integrate smoothly into the platform and perform reliably in production.
- Contribute to setting up monitoring, testing, and automation tools to improve quality and performance.
- Learn and follow DevOps practices that make development, deployment, and maintenance faster and safer.
Requirements
Experience
- Around 2–5 years of experience designing, building, or maintaining software systems — ideally in a cloud-based environment.
- Familiarity with containers (like Docker) and orchestration tools (like Kubernetes) is a big plus.
- Experience using infrastructure-as-code tools (such as Terraform or CloudFormation) to manage and deploy cloud resources is helpful.
- Exposure to AI, ML, or data-driven systems is a strong bonus — curiosity and willingness to learn in this area are highly valued.
Development Lifecycle
- Hands-on experience across the software development lifecycle — from designing and prototyping to building, testing, deploying, and supporting real-world applications.
- Some experience with enterprise-scale or data-centric systems is preferred, especially those involving AI/ML components.
- Comfortable using version control (like Git), writing tests, and working in modern DevOps or agile environments.
Technical Skills
- Solid programming skills in at least one or more of the following languages: Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Go, or C++.
- Understanding of cloud technologies, APIs, and modern frameworks for backend or frontend development.
- (Nice to have) Experience or interest in AI/ML tools and frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, LangChain, or LlamaIndex — or exposure to LLMs and AI agents.
- A growth mindset — you’re curious, eager to learn, and open to exploring new technologies. You enjoy solving problems, experimenting, and collaborating with others to build great products.
At JazzX AI, you have the opportunity to join the foundational team that is pushing the boundaries of what’s possible to create an autonomous intelligence driven future.
