• Hands-on experience working with relational databases, including schema design, indexing, and query performance optimization

• Hands-on experience designing and operating workflow-driven systems (orchestration, retries, timeouts, and state management)

• Experience integrating Machine Learning, Neural Networks or LLMs into enterprise applications and workflows

• Familiarity with OCR, NLP and computer vision technologies

Salary Range:

The anticipated base salary range for this position is between 228,000 PLN and 264,000 PLN annually.
