• At least 6 months of hands-on experience developing and deploying production solutions using Anthropic Claude models
• At least 6 months of experience applying prompt engineering, context engineering, structured outputs and related techniques to improve the performance, reliability and usability of AI solutions
• 3+ years of hands-on full-stack development experience using at least one back-end language such as Python, Java, .NET, Go, or Node.js and at least one modern front-end framework such as React, Angular, or Vue.js.
• 2+ years of experience in a client-facing development role, including 2+ years building and consuming Representational State Transfer (REST) and/or GraphQL application programming interfaces.
• Experience with at least one major cloud platform, including Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform, and one year of hands-on experience integrating Anthropic Claude application programming interfaces into software applications in a commercial setting.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, Mathematics, or another technical field, or equivalent professional experience.
• Ability to travel 50%, on average, based on the work you do and the clients and industries/sectors you serve.
• Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship, now or at any time in the future.

Preferred:

• Experience with Docker and Kubernetes.
• Experience with continuous integration/continuous deployment pipelines and DevOps practices.
• Experience working in an Agile/Scrum environment using tools such as Jira or Linear.
• Contributions to open-source projects or a portfolio demonstrating software development work.
• Industry-recognized cloud certifications such as AWS Certified Developer, Azure Developer Associate, or Google Cloud Professional Developer.
• Experience using Claude Cowork to support enterprise workflows, automation, research or other knowledge-work cases
• Hands-on experience using Claude through one of more of the following: Azure AI Foundry, Amazon Bedrock, Google Vertex AI, or the native Anthropic API
