- Maintain and improve the MCP Toolbox for Databases codebase, focusing on scalability, reliability, and clean architecture
- Expand and maintain robust test suites for asynchronous AI tools and CLI-based systems
- Translate technical concepts and blog content into usable code samples and clear developer documentation
- Build and maintain high-fidelity data applications using QueryData to support internal experimentation and product development
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience working with LLMs or AI systems that integrate external tools or data sources (e.g., MCP, tool-calling, agents)
- Strong proficiency in SQL, including writing and optimizing complex queries
- Hands-on experience with at least one relational or NoSQL database (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, BigQuery, Spanner, MongoDB)
