No flexibility on other technologies. - AI/backend engineering: Deep knowledge of building and productionizing complex AI systems — observability, reliability, quality - English communication: Very strong, given client-facing responsibilities -Client-facing responsibilities begin from onboarding, with full client-facing ownership expected to grow over time Also, they will have on-call duties (now it’s during working hours and weekends, rotation among team members, but later they want to have 24/7 on call, so one person will be on-call for 24 hours (probably) and it will be compensated extra).  Desirable skills (would be a benefit): Any special requirements for the person DM @ElanaRedzel ——— Контакт: @themacko #golang #lookfor #outstaff #x27
