The Vision 

We aren't just looking for someone who can write code; we are looking for a software artisan who views AI as their primary superpower. At our core, we are rebuilding a massive-scale product that manages 20 years of scientific legacy—manuscripts, journals, and complex user data. 

We believe that in the era of AI, the "how" of coding is evolving. We need an Engineer who can pilot AI tools to handle the heavy lifting while focusing their human intellect on problem-solving, architectural integrity, and business value. 

The Role: What You’ll Do 

• AI-Driven Development: Use Cursor AI and LLMs to accelerate development, refactor legacy logic, and maintain high code quality. 
• Full-Stack Ownership: Build and maintain robust backend services in C#.NET and modern, reactive front-ends using Vue.js (3) and TypeScript. 
• Collaborative Design: Work within a 2-week Scrum cycle, participating in daily CI/CD deployments and proactive monitoring via New Relic. 
• The "Human" Element: Spend your time refining business requirements, asking the "why" behind features, and ensuring we are solving the right problems for our customers.
