Job Summary
In this role, you will develop automated solutions for monitoring and enhancing the production pipeline, create reliable alerting systems, and build AI agents that proactively diagnose and resolve issues.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- Our crawlers collect regulatory updates from 80+ sources and push them through an automated pipeline: extraction, embedding, search, classification, consolidation and translation. As we add regions, keeping it healthy has become a job of its own.
- We want an engineer who makes production tell us what's wrong before customers do, fixes what can be fixed automatically, and builds AI agents that diagnose the rest. When an issue does reach a developer, it should arrive with a root cause and a suggested fix.
- Not a ticket-driven ops role: you'll write production Python from week one and own platform reliability alongside a core-team developer.
- Reduziere das Rauschen. Trenne vorübergehende Fehler (Netzwerkaussetzer, Timeouts, Fehler, die beim erneuten Versuch verschwinden) von echten Fehlern und entwickle eine Alarmierung, auf die sich das Team verlassen kann.
- Build agentic incident response: agents that gather Sentry issues, logs, metrics and recent deploys, classify the failure, apply known fixes or open draft PRs, and brief the right developer.
- Monitor the data, not just the infrastructure. A job that succeeds but extracts nothing is still a failure. Track freshness and completeness, e.g. 'every source checked on time', 'every document produced text and embeddings'.
- Make the pipeline self-healing: retries with backoff, idempotent and resumable jobs, deadletter handling, clear escalation when automation gives up.
- Keep agents safe: scoped permissions, audit trails, human approval for risky actions, and measuring how often they're right.
- Continuously audit our Infrastructure and Identify opportunities to make it more efficient and save costs.
- Catch memory, timeout and cost problems across Cloud Run before they become silent OOM kills.
- Add structured logging, metrics, tracing and sensible Sentry grouping, with infrastructure as code and CI/CD.

- Hands-on experience building with LLMs or agents in production, and judgment about when a plain if-statement is better.
