Job Description
What You’ll Do

- Containerize applications with Docker and help establish modern CI/CD pipelines for automated testing and deployment
- Help migrate existing applications off legacy Windows Server/IIS infrastructure to modern, containerized deployments

- Contribute to architecture decisions and help shape the team’s technical direction as we modernize

- Hands-on experience with Docker and containerized application deployment
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps Pipelines, GitLab CI, or similar)
- Comfort working in Linux environments for deployment and server administration
- Comfort working across multiple languages and frameworks without a strong preference for one stack
- Demonstrated ability to independently take a project from concept to production

Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with FastAPI, React (Vite), or modern Python web frameworks

- Experience with Git and Azure DevOps for version control
- Deeper AI/ML experience: fine-tuning models, vector databases (FAISS, pgvector), anomaly detection, or document classification
What We’re Looking For (Mindset)
- Builder instinct – You’d rather ship something real than debate architecture endlessly
- Pragmatism – You pick the right tool for the job, even if it’s not the trendiest
- Domain curiosity – You care about why the tool matters to the person using it, not just the code
- Self-direction – On a 3-person team, there’s no room to wait for someone to hand you tickets
- Full-ownership mentality – You’re comfortable being the person who deploys, monitors, and fixes your own work
