Job Overview

We are looking for a Senior Full-Stack Developer with strong Python and Generative AI expertise to join our team onsite in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. You will lead the front-end integration of multiple custom AI/LLM models into production-grade applications, while progressively contributing to backend and infrastructure layers in a full-stack capacity.

This is a heavily AI-driven role that demands hands-on experience in deploying and consuming Generative AI models (LLMs, RAG pipelines, data extraction, etc.), API development in Python (FastAPI), on-premise server management, containerization, OpenShift orchestration, and robust CI/CD practices.

Key Responsibilities

• Build responsive, high-performance front-end applications using React.js + Redux, Tailwind CSS, and custom CSS for real-time API/event handling.
• Integrate multiple custom Generative AI models (LLMs, RAG, embeddings, data-extraction pipelines) into the front-end via REST/gRPC/WebSocket APIs.
• Design and develop production APIs in Python (FastAPI + Swagger/OpenAPI) to expose AI models hosted on on-prem servers and local machines.
• Consume and integrate OpenAI APIs, third-party LLMs, and custom fine-tuned models securely and efficiently.
• Containerize applications and AI inference services using Docker; deploy and manage on Red Hat OpenShiftclusters.
• Perform Linux system administration tasks related to Docker, OpenShift, networking, storage, and security in on-prem environments.
• Build, maintain, and optimize CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins (including GitOps practices).
• Manage backend services using Node.js/Express and/or FastAPI; Next.js experience is a strong plus.
• Optimize front-end performance when streaming or rendering AI-generated content (text, images, structured data).
• Troubleshoot full-stack and infrastructure issues across development, staging, and production environments.
• Participate in architecture and deployment strategy discussions for on-prem AI platforms.

Required Qualifications & Skills

• 5–8 years of professional full-stack development experience.
• Expert-level React.js + Redux and Tailwind CSS.
• Strong Python proficiency with deep knowledge of:
• Generative AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), RAG architectures, prompt-to-output pipelines, data extraction, and vector stores.
• Building production APIs using FastAPI + Swagger/OpenAPI.
• Integrating OpenAI APIs and self-hosted/custom LLMs.
• Solid backend experience with Node.js/Express (Next.js is a big plus) and FastAPI.
• Proven experience integrating and deploying AI models in production (on-prem or local environments).
• Advanced Linux administration skills (running Docker/OpenShift commands, troubleshooting containers, networking, security hardening).
• Hands-on expertise in:
• Docker (multi-stage builds, Docker Compose, image optimization).
• Red Hat OpenShift (or Kubernetes) – deployments, operators, routes, persistent storage.
• Jenkins CI/CD pipeline creation and management.
• Strong grasp of infrastructure-as-code, configuration management, and automated deployment strategies.
• Fluent in Arabic (mandatory – daily communication with client teams in Dammam).
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work independently in a fast-paced, evolving environment.

Preferred (Nice-to-Have) Skills

• Next.js (SSR/SSG) and full-stack React frameworks.
• Kubernetes core concepts and migration from OpenShift.
• Monitoring stack: Prometheus, Grafana, EFK/ELK.
• AI model fine-tuning or quantization techniques.
• Security best practices for containerized AI workloads (secrets management, RBAC, network policies).
• Cloud exposure (AWS/GCP/Azure) for hybrid scenarios (not mandatory).

Additional Information

• 8-month full-time onsite contract in Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
• Immediate or short-notice joining preferred.
• Compensation & benefits will be competitive and discussed during interviews.
• Must already have (or be able to obtain quickly) the right to work in Saudi Arabia.
