If you love hard technical problems and want to have fun solving them with people you like, you'll fit right in.
What you'll do
- Design, build and own backend services and microservices across the Lumia platform
- Build features that secure how organizations use AI, including LLMs and AI agents
- Help shape our architecture, infrastructure and cloud deployment
- Debug and optimize complex, high-scale systems
•
