About the job: This role sits at the center of that buildout. You’ll ship near-term product features while helping us make the right architectural decisions for what’s coming. We need someone who can execute and see around corners someone who understands both the product experience and the platform mechanics underneath it. Key Responsibilities Build and ship AI features using our PHP/MySQL/React/Node stack with OpenAI API integration. Extend Astro Core chatbot capabilities new read/write actions, graph generation, analysis outputs. Help improve the external MCP connector schema, authentication, capability surface.

Familiarity with designing MCP (Model Context Protocol) — understanding of how LLM-native integrations differ from traditional REST. Ability to reason about multi-tenant access controls: how AI features should behave differently across customer tiers. Understanding of agent architecture patterns: tool registries, memory types, token pool management, task delegation. Core Stack React and Node: able to build frontend components that surface AI features, including data visualizations. Solid PHP development experience — comfortable extending a production codebase, not just greenfield.
