About the role

- Build and operate backend services, APIs, and data pipelines that ingest, structure, and serve customer context in real time and in batch
- Contribute to the design of the structured memory store and the knowledge and context retrieval layers that agents use
- Implement data quality, lineage, and access-control requirements so context is accurate, governed, and safe to use
- Partner with product, ML, and platform teams to integrate context into AI-powered customer experiences
- Write well-tested, observable, production-ready code, and take part in design reviews, code reviews, and on-call
- Break down ambiguous problems, propose solutions, and deliver features end to end with growing independence
Qualifications
What you’ll bring
- BS/MS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent experience
- 2+ years of professional software engineering experience
- Strong programming skills in Java, Python, or Kotlin (or a similar language), and solid fundamentals in data structures, algorithms, and distributed systems
- Experience building and running services in a cloud environment (AWS preferred)
- Familiarity with data stores and streaming or messaging systems, such as Cassandra, Kafka, Flink, Spark, or graph and search stores
- Comfort with CI/CD, testing, monitoring, and operating production systems
- Clear communication and a collaborative approach
Nice to have
- Exposure to LLMs, RAG, vector or graph retrieval, or agent and context-engineering patterns
- Experience with data governance, lineage, or fine-grained access control
- Experience with event-driven architectures and customer data platforms
