We are seeking a highly skilledย Senior Software Engineer โ Backendย to design, build, and scale next-generation AI platform services that power enterprise-grade intelligent applications. This role is ideal for engineers with strong expertise inย Java, cloud-native microservices, distributed systems, and AI platform architecture, along with hands-on experience integrating Large Language Models (LLMs), agent orchestration frameworks, and modern backend technologies.
As a senior member of the engineering team, you will own the development of scalable backend services, AI gateways, and orchestration frameworks while collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver secure, reliable, and high-performance solutions. The role demands strong technical leadership, excellent problem-solving skills, and a passion for building production-ready AI-powered platforms.
Requirements
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain production-grade backend services for AI platforms, including LLM gateways, model integration services, and agent orchestration frameworks.
- Build scalable cloud-native microservices using Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, and modern distributed system design principles.
- Architect and implement AI gateway capabilities such as multi-provider model routing, intelligent failover, token management, cost optimization, request logging, and observability.
- Develop infrastructure supporting Model Context Protocol (MCP), tool integration, and intelligent agent workflows.
- Design and implement multi-step AI reasoning workflows, tool orchestration, guardrails, and human-in-the-loop processes for enterprise AI applications.
- Take end-to-end ownership of critical backend components, ensuring scalability, security, reliability, and maintainability.
- Diagnose and resolve complex performance bottlenecks across backend services, AI inference layers, and distributed architectures.
- Collaborate with Product, AI/ML, QA, UX, and Engineering teams to design and deliver high-quality software solutions.
