• Build background services and integrations that connect our systems with each other, with shop-floor hardware, and with outside tools
• Use AI-assisted development in your daily work, and help build AI tools for the business, such as local LLM and RAG systems built on company documents
• Diagnose and resolve technical issues, identify performance bottlenecks, and implement bug fixes to maintain reliable software and services
• Maintain the platform our applications run on: servers, containers, networking, security, and databases
