• Design and implement conversational flows, dialogue state, and fallback handling.
• Integrate bots with LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar) for natural language responses.
• Connect bots to backend services, databases, CRMs, and third-party APIs.
• Handle webhooks, rate limits, and platform-specific message formats.
• Evaluate AI-generated bot code and refactor it for correctness, reliability, and graceful error handling.
• Implement logging, monitoring, and recovery so bots stay healthy in production.

Requirements

• At least 3 years of relevant experience in backend or bot development.
• Strong foundation in bot development, messaging platform integrations, and building reliable conversational workflows.
• Ability to design and maintain production-ready bots.
• Work confidently with APIs, webhooks, and backend services.
• Ability to refine AI-assisted output into stable, user-friendly experiences.
• Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to work independently.

• Strong command of Python or Node.js for backend bot logic.
• Solid experience with REST APIs, webhooks, OAuth, and async request handling.
• Experience with relational or NoSQL databases for storing conversation state and user data.
• Familiarity with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic) and prompt design for conversational use is a strong plus.
• Understanding of platform-specific limits, message templates, and approval flows.
• Experience with hosting and deployment (Docker, serverless, VPS, or PaaS).
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to bot reliability.
• Self-directed work ethic with the ability to design and ship complete bots independently.
• Portfolio or examples of bots you've built.
