Enterprise - Software Engineer - Python, Kubernetes, REST
for section headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must include only sections with real specific content. Must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam warning, application instructions, referral stuff? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Referral & Inquiries is likely application instruction? It's about referrals, maybe considered application instruction? Probably remove. Also "Please Send Referrals And Inquiries To jobs@eriasventures.com" etc. Remove.
We need to extract sections:
- About the role: Could be the introductory paragraph about company and role description. Use About the role
then
with description. - Responsibilities: The bullet list after "Design and develop Python-based components..." etc. Those are responsibilities. - Requirements: Possibly the "Experience" and "Required Skills" sections? Actually "Experience" and "Required Skills" are qualifications. Could treat "Qualifications" heading for experience/education. "Skills" heading for required skills and desired skills? But we have both Required Skills and Desired Skills. Could combine under Skills? But we need to follow instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Schedule: mention partial telework and hybrid environment (1-2 days per week at office). That's schedule info. So include Schedule section. Pay: salary range $150,000 - $275,000. Benefits: list of benefits. We must not include headings with filler. Ensure each section has content. Let's extract content. About the role: combine first paragraphs: "Erias Ventures was founded to serve its customers with an entrepreneurial mindset. We value creative problem-solving, open communication, and empowering our employees to make decisions and put forth new ideas. Our staff includes technical experts working across multiple disciplines, bringing diverse perspectives to every project. We are seeking engineers who wish to grow their careers and want to become part of a technically strong and growth-oriented company focused on bringing innovative solutions to the difficult mission problems facing our customers. Description We are seeking a Software Engineer focused on AI Integration. You will be responsible for designing, developing, and implementing the agentic platform for our proprietary Data Lake tool, JCRSD. This role is primarily focused on Python-based components and requires strong container orchestration skills to ensure seamless deployment. This role is not focused on training foundational AI models from scratch. Instead, you will take industry best practices, open-source capabilities, and large language models (LLMs), and build a secure, scalable framework that allows our platform to seamlessly leverage AI. You will build Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, reusable AI skills, strict safety guardrails, and coordinate with disparate internal teams to expose their APIs to our autonomous agents. If you are a self-motivated, creative software engineer who loves Python, Kubernetes, and treating AI as a complex software integration problem, we would love to hear from you." We can keep as
. Responsibilities: list items after "Design and develop Python-based components..." until "Other duties as assigned". Let's capture each line: - Design and develop Python-based components for our core agentic platform - Deploy, manage, and scale applications within Kubernetes (K8s) environments efficiently right out of the gate - Build Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and a library of reusable "skills" (function calling/tools) that enable AI agents to safely interact with internal databases, microservices, and external APIs - Collaborate with cross-functional teams to help them expose their Java-based APIs to our AI agents - Implement strict enterprise AI guardrails, ensuring data privacy, sensitive data scrubbing, prompt injection defenses, and output validation to meet stringent security requirements - Maintain an inquisitive nature, responsiveness, and excellent testing skills (including automated testing pipelines for non-deterministic AI outputs) - Possess strong troubleshooting skills and the ability to work under pressure with multiple deadlines in a fast-paced, small-business environment - Seamlessly transition between hands-on execution and team guidance, treating mentorship and team leadership as inherent components of senior-level impact - Other duties as assigned We'll put in
- .
Qualifications: Experience and education: "Nine (9) years experience in Software Engineering, with a strong focus on Python backend development and a Bachelors in related field; seven (7) years relevant experience with Masters in related field; or High School Diploma or equivalent and thirteen (13) years relevant experience." Also "Clearance Must obtain and maintain a U.S. Government Security Clearance, but not required on day one; U.S. Citizenship required." Also maybe "Must be able to work in a hybrid environment, spending an average of 1-2 days per week at our Columbia, MD office." That's schedule though.
We could put Qualifications heading with experience/education/clearance/citizenship.
Skills: Required Skills list and Desired Skills list. Could combine under Skills heading with subheadings? But we cannot add extra headings beyond allowed? Only allowed headings are those listed. Could still include
Skills
and then list required and desired as- maybe with notes. We'll include both.
Benefits: list benefits.
Pay: salary range.
Schedule: mention partial telework and hybrid environment.
Let's craft HTML.
We must not include any markdown fences. Just raw HTML.
Let's write:

Check for any duplicated lines: ensure we didn't include referral etc. Now extract content precisely. About the role paragraph: we need to keep all substantive info. Let's copy the paragraph exactly as in posting but maybe remove "Description" word? The posting says "Description We are seeking a Software Engineer..." It's okay to keep "Description" as part of sentence? Might be redundant. Better to keep the content but we can omit the word "Description" as it's just a label. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Removing "Description" is not substantive; it's just a heading label. It's safe to remove. We'll keep the rest. Let's craft About the role paragraph: "Erias Ventures was founded to serve its customers with an entrepreneurial mindset. We value creative problem-solving, open communication, and empowering our employees to make decisions and put forth new ideas.

Now Responsibilities list as above. Qualifications paragraph: combine experience/education and clearance/citizenship. "Nine (9) years experience in Software Engineering, with a strong focus on Python backend development and a Bachelors in related field; seven (7) years relevant experience with Masters in related field; or High School Diploma or equivalent and thirteen (13) years relevant experience. Must obtain and maintain a U.S. Government Security Clearance, but not required on day one; U.S. Citizenship required." We could also include "Must be able to work in a hybrid environment..." but that's schedule. Skills: Required Skills list from posting: - Kubernetes Proficiency: Demonstrated, hands-on experience deploying and managing containerized workloads in Kubernetes (K8s) - Applied AI Experience: Hands-on experience integrating commercial LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic) or open-source models into production backend applications - AI Concepts: Demonstrated understanding of modern applied AI concepts such as prompt engineering, agents, function-calling/tool-use, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) - Experience in designing enterprise APIs, RESTful web services, and Microservices architecture - Experience with configuration management tools (e.g., Git, CI/CD pipelines, Docker) - Comfortable working on a Linux command line - Demonstrated experience serving as a tech lead, mentor, or manager for engineering teams - Must be able to work in a hybrid environment, spending an average of 1-2 days per week at our Columbia, MD office.
