Cast & Crew is looking to drive the architecture and development of their AI-powered, next-generation unified payroll platform, solving complex problems at the intersection of AI, automation, and payroll compliance, especially in domains involving union labor rules, pay scales, and compliance-heavy workflows.
Requirements
- Advanced proficiency in .NET Core, C, and microservices architecture.
- Proven experience with AI/ML and NLP integration in production systems.
- Hands-on experience building IDP-based workflows using AWS Textract, GCP Document AI, or similar platforms.
- Expertise in messaging systems (Kafka, AWS SQS), REST/gRPC APIs, and system observability.
- Deep knowledge of SQL and NoSQL technologies such as PostgreSQL and DynamoDB.
- Experience working with Redis, Elasticsearch, and scalable cloud-native infrastructure.
- Solid front-end understanding with React and integration best practices.
Responsibilities
- Architect scalable, event-driven microservices using .NET Core and AWS.
- Design resilient backend systems and services focused on high throughput, fault tolerance, and low latency.
- Build and optimize data pipelines using PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, Redis, and Elasticsearch.
- Implement AI/ML and NLP models to power smart payroll features.
- Integrate Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) pipelines to extract structured data from labor union contracts, including pay rules, deduction rules, and scale rates.
- Write production-grade code and frameworks in C, React, and AWS infrastructure.
- Contribute to DevOps automation, CI/CD pipelines, and observability tooling.
Other
- Strong communication and documentation skills, with the ability to work independently in a collaborative environment.
- Experience with payroll, finance, or labor compliance systems.
- Familiarity with domain-driven design (DDD), rule engines, and contract ingestion.
- Prior involvement in designing systems to ingest and apply union labor contracts and rate sheets.
- Entertainment/media tech experience is a plus.
