Develop and improve desktop applications, APIs, and supporting services
Build modular, extensible systems that make it easier to introduce new capabilities as products evolve
Explore practical integrations for AI technologies, including LLMs and intelligent agents
Design clear contracts for plugins, manifests, registries, SDKs, public APIs, and internal interfaces where they are truly needed
Protect dependency direction, data ownership, public contracts, and package boundaries
Identify architectural drift, cycles, leaky abstractions, and coupling risks, then propose practical fixes
Write short technical proposals, architecture notes, invariants, and decision records before meaningful changes
Improve developer tools, workflows, scaffolding, lint rules, tests, ratchets, and CI checks so the team can build and deliver with confidence
Work effectively with both human teammates and AI coding agents by keeping code, docs, and project layout predictable
Minimum Qualifications
BS or MS in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
Experience with AWS or similar cloud
5+ years building and maintaining large, long-lived software applications. We value having lived with your design decisions over time more than having started many greenfield projects
Strong TypeScript skills and solid software engineering fundamentals
Experience designing and working with complex applications, APIs, or distributed systems
Experience with Electron or comparable desktop application architecture
Python experience, especially where Python integrates with a larger application or service layer
Strong fundamentals in software design: separation of concerns, dependency management, API design, contract design, versioning, and incremental evolution
Good problem-solving skills, sound engineering judgment, and an appreciation for clean, maintainable code
Comfort writing tests and using automation to enforce architectural conventions
Strong written communication: proposals, architecture decision records, design notes, and developer-facing docs
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with AI-powered applications, LLMs, RAG, AI agents, recommendation systems, or personalization systems
Experience with Agentic Framework such as : LangGraph, LangChain, or comparable orchestration frameworks
Experience building SDKs, plugin systems, extension registries, or marketplace-like systems
Experience with Electron main/renderer boundaries, IPC, preload scripts, context isolation, packaging, and cross-platform desktop concerns
Experience designing local service boundaries between TypeScript/Electron and Python
Experience with cloud services, APIs, or distributed systems.
Experience creating internal tooling, code generators, lint rules, dependency checks, or architectural CI gates
Experience maintaining public or semi-public APIs over multiple versions
Experience using AI-assisted development tools and workflows
The Ideal Candidate
You see structure before code: you know where a feature belongs, what boundary it crosses, and whether it needs a module, service, plugin, library, package, or application-layer change
You design with judgment: you know when an abstraction is useful, when it is too heavy, and how to protect contracts, invariants, ownership, and documented intent over time
You have lived with your own design decisions across large, long-lived systems and understand the cost of coupling, unclear ownership, and architectural drift
You value small, focused changes, explicit contracts, clear documentation, clean code, and codebases that both teammates and AI agents can navigate safely
You are pragmatic and collaborative: you can follow existing patterns for a quick fix, name real technical debt when you see it, and stay curious about AI and unfamiliar technologies
