We employ a knowledgeable staff of experienced Loan Officers with an operations team that is second to none.

Overview:

We are seeking a skilled Software Engineer with a strong focus on AI systems to join our team. This role centers on designing, building, and maintaining AI-driven services and agentic workflows, with hands-on Anthropic SDK/API experience as a core requirement. The ideal candidate blends prompt engineering skill, comfort building and debugging agentic loops, and solid full-stack fundamentals (Python, TypeScript/React, SQL). This person should think about both software-engineering discipline and AI-system behavior: testing, scaling, and securing AI-backed applications the same way any production system would be. 

Key Responsibilities: 

• Design, build, deploy web applications, AI-driven services and agentic pipelines (tool-use loops, multi-step agents, orchestration) 
• Build and maintain integrations with Anthropic API/SDK (Claude models, tool use, prompt caching, streaming) 
• Write, iterate, and evaluate prompts for reliability, safety, and cost efficiency 
• Develop RESTful APIs (Python) and React/TypeScript front ends around AI features 
• Own DevOps for AI services: CI/CD, containerization (Docker), cloud deploy (AWS/Azure), monitoring/observability for agent runs 
• Write optimized SQL against relational DBs 
• Design automated test frameworks for both deterministic code and non-deterministic AI outputs (eval harnesses, regression suites) 
• Collaborate cross-functional with teams and translate business needs into AI-backed technical solutions 
• Maintain technical docs (architecture, prompt design decisions, agent behavior/limits) 

Skills & Qualifications 

• Bachelor's degree in computer science, related field, or equivalent experience. 
• 2+ years of professional software engineering experience  
• 2+ years of experience working with Python and Flask or Django 
• Must-have: Hands on experience with Anthropic SDK/API and Claude Console 
• Proficiency with Git 
• Strong experience with RESTful API development 
• Hands-on experience with SQL and relational databases (e.g., MySQL, MSSQL, Postgres) 
• Comfortable building and debugging agentic loops (tool-call cycles, multi-turn agents, error recovery, self-verification patterns) 
• Judgment to scope an AI solution appropriately — knows when multi-agent orchestration is overkill versus warranted 
• Some DevOps exposure: Docker, CI/CD, cloud platforms like AWS or Azure 
• Proficiency with Git 
• Familiarity with testing libraries (pytest, jest); LLM eval framework experience a plus 
• Strong debugging skills for complex, partially non-deterministic systems 
• Excellent communication skills: ability to explain AI behavior, limits, and tradeoffs to non-technical stakeholders 
• Stays current with the broader AI landscape — local/open-source models, emerging tooling, and alternatives to hosted APIs — and can speak to tradeoffs (cost, latency, privacy, quality) between running a model locally versus calling a hosted API
