## About the role

You'll build the core of Cekura: the simulation engines, evaluation systems, self-improvement loops, and observability pipelines our customers rely on to ship voice agents with confidence.

## What they're looking for

- A strong generalist engineer excited to work across systems and AI, not someone looking to stay in one lane
- You've built and operated production systems and care about reliability, latency, and correctness
- Fluent in Python and comfortable picking up whatever the problem needs
- Strong instincts about LLMs: where they fail, how to evaluate them, how to build reliable systems on unreliable models
- You like ambiguity, move fast, and raise the bar for the people around you
- You've read the first section of this JD twice and you're still here
