Day To Day You Will:: Leverage AI tooling like Copilot to accelerate delivery, while critically reviewing and hardening the infrastructure, pipelines, and code it produces.

About You:: Strong proficiency in Python and TypeScript/JavaScript, fluent enough to read, reason about, and verify code deeply, including what AI generates.
Proven experience building and running production systems end-to-end, with hands-on CI/CD, cloud, and security foundations that let you direct and validate AI-generated work, not just produce it.
Strong cloud and AI engineering fundamentals, especially Azure, deploying and operating hosted model services (e.g. Azure AI Foundry / Azure OpenAI) reliably and cost-effectively.
Keeps code maintainable and well-tested, whether hand-written or AI-generated, so a growing codebase stays safe to build on.
