- Build and maintain backend services using Python-based frameworks (e.g. FastAPI, Flask)
- Develop and maintain frontend interfaces using modern JavaScript frameworks (e.g. React)
- Manage application deployments using Docker, Linux-based servers, and cloud or self-hosted environments
- Develop and maintain document processing and automation pipelines
- Debug and resolve issues across the full stack — frontend, backend, and AI layers
- Collaborate directly with the team lead on architecture decisions and feature delivery
- Maintain technical documentation for systems and processes
