  • Positive 'can-do' mindset, able to work independently and within a team
  • Hands-on experience with LLM APIs, including a practical, highly-skeptical understanding of token costs, caching, context windows, and model failure points
  • You know how to build the right context for a task, including memory systems, session storage, and vector databases
  • You understand where LLMs fail and how to design around those failure points
  • You've used traces or observability tooling to diagnose and improve agent behavior
  • A systems-level background that touches reliability, observability, or platform engineering, with a strong preference for writing narrow, deterministic code over building hypothetical abstractions
