Your mission

• You develop and operate core services of our Sovereign AI Cloud based on Python and FastAPI. This includes, among other things, our OpenAI-compatible LLM inference gateway and our conversational AI platform.
• You contribute to our shared platform library for authentication, authorization, and multi-tenancy, creating the foundation for secure and scalable products.
• You build solutions using modern technologies such as PostgreSQL, Redis, and asynchronous Python, ensuring sustainable and robust data architectures.
• You are responsible for the quality, stability, and observability of your services through automated testing, monitoring, and logging solutions.
• You support the entire software lifecycle, from architecture and implementation to deployment and the operation of production systems.
• You work closely with our product, platform, and engineering teams and actively contribute your ideas to the further development of our AI platform.
• You leverage modern development practices such as CI/CD, GitOps, and Kubernetes-based deployments to deliver software efficiently and securely.
