Backend Engineering

• Design and develop APIs for frontend and system integrations
• Implement multi-turn conversation state management

What Success Looks Like

• First 30 days: System understood, baseline metrics established, key improvements identified
• Mid engagement: Enhanced pipeline in staging with measurable uplift and stable APIs
• Delivery: Production-ready solution with strong performance and clean handover

Essential Experience

• Proven experience building and deploying RAG systems in production
• Strong understanding of the end-to-end retrieval stack (embeddings, vector DBs, BM25, reranking)
• Production-level Python engineering (clean, testable, maintainable code)
• Experience working within defined architecture frameworks
• Ability to work autonomously in a consulting/contract environment
• Strong focus on balancing quality, latency, and cost
• Mindset of instrumentation before optimisation

Highly Regarded

• Experience with multi-turn conversational AI systems
• Familiarity with RAG evaluation frameworks (RAGAS, TruLens, etc.)
• Exposure to enterprise knowledge platforms or higher education environments
• Experience with integration/automation tooling (e.g. n8n, Make)
