Backend Responsibilities (Primary)

Build new agent tools/actions using AWS Bedrock Agent Action Groups (Lambda-backed tools).

Design and implement forecasting input pipelines: ingestion, transformations, feature prep, aggregation, and validation.

Implement business logic and data transformation layers with strong test coverage.

Ensure robust error handling, retries, idempotency, and clear observability (logs/metrics/traces).

Secure tool interfaces (IAM policies, scoped permissions, secrets management) for safe function/tool calling.

Implement async workflows for long-running/high-throughput work (queues/events).

Nice-to-Have

OpenMetadata (or strong metadata/lineage management experience).

Experience building LLM products (tool orchestration, guardrails, evals).

Forecasting/time-series familiarity (helpful, not required).
