Responsibilities
• Architect and maintain Python-based services using FastAPI for internal and customer-facing AI use cases • Build and scale secure, well-structured API endpoints that interface with LLMs, vector stores, and agentic tools • Implement orchestration logic and tool chaining for advanced agent workflows • Optimize service performance and latency across AI infrastructure layers • Collaborate with frontend, AI, and devops teams to ensure system-wide reliability and observability • Set up robust test coverage and CI pipelines for backend services • Contribute to our modular architecture for tool-based reasoning agents • Stay current with emerging trends in AI engineering, LLM integrations, and scalable backend systems • To succeed in this role, you’ll need deep full-stack development expertise, a strong understanding of modern architecture patterns, and a bias toward building modular, maintainable systems.
Benefits
• CA$215K – CA$250K • Project Completion bonuses • TextLayer helps enterprises and funded startups deploy advanced AI systems without rewriting their infrastructure. We work with organizations across fintech, healthtech, and other sectors to bridge the gap between AI potential and practical implementation. • Our approach combines deep technical expertise with proven frameworks like TextLayer Core to accelerate development and ensure production-ready results. From bespoke AI workflows to agentic systems, we help clients adopt AI that actually works in their existing tech stacks. • We're on a mission to help address the implementation gap that over 85% of enterprise clients experience in adding AI to their operations and products. We're looking for sharp, curious people who want to meaningfully shape how we build, operate, and deliver. • If you're excited to work on foundational AI infrastructure, solve complex problems for diverse clients, and help define what agentic software looks like in practice, we'd love to meet you.
