• Build production-grade systems using webhooks, retry logic, queues, structured logs, real-time alerts, and recovery processes.

• Create operational dashboards, runbooks, and structured documentation with version control.

• Strong proficiency in monitoring frameworks, idempotent workflow design, logging, retries, and error handling.
• Excellent documentation and communication skills — flow screenshots + short Loom walkthrough encouraged.
Nice-to-have
• Basic scripting in JavaScript or Python; knowledge of Stripe + LLM-powered tool integrations.
• Experience with clinical, medical, or regulated dataset workflows.
Benefits
Compensation & performance bonuses
Retainer: USD $1,000–$1,500 per month depending on scope and SLAs.
Performance incentive: USD $500 per month for KPI over-performance.
Payment & contractor terms
