Who We Are
At Bluehost, we believe all small businesses deserve the opportunity to succeed online. Our mission is to give small businesses the confidence to think big.We'rethe all-in-one platform for small businesses to grow online with powerful simplicity, premium performance, smarttoolsand human support.
This role is a part ofBluehost's innovation team, the group building the AI-native backbone of our platform while the rest of the business scales around us.You'lldesign async, production-grade backend systems that treat AI as a first-class citizen: multi-agent orchestration, retrieval-augmented generation, and provider-agnostic LLM integration, all woven into products millions of small businesses depend on. We want a truego-getterwho can take an idea from whiteboard to production without waiting to be told how.
What You'll Do & How You'll Make Your Mark
Design and scale async REST/WebSocket APIs in Python (FastAPIor similar), using dependency injection, type hints, and clean, vertical-slice architecture
Implement multi-agent workflows (sequential, concurrent, and handoff patterns) to route work among specialized LLM agents
Integrate multiple LLM providers behind a provider-agnostic layer, enabling A/B testing and cost-aware routing rather than hard-coding a single vendor
Build andmaintainRetrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines against vector stores such aspgvector, Chroma, or a managed vector search service
Design schemas and evolve data models (SQLAlchemy/SQLModel-style ORM plus migrations) that support both traditional application logic and AI-driven features
Instrument services with structured logs, distributed tracing, and cost/latency metrics, holding a real bar for p95 response time under production load
Maintain end-to-end CI/CD ownership, lint, type-check, test, package, and deploy, so releases are boring and safe
Champion AIacross the delivery lifecycle, not just code generation, and set the guardrails the team works inside: how generated code gets reviewed, how provenance and licensing are checked, and what customer data may enter a prompt
Move ideas from concept to production fast, with real ownership over architecture and outcomes, not just tickets
Who You Are & What You'll Need to Succeed
5+ years building production backend systems in Python, with real async I/O experience
Hands-on experience designing and scaling REST or async APIs, including dependency injection and clean service architecture
Practical experience integrating LLM APIs (OpenAI, Gemini, or similar) and building AI-readiness into backend systems from the ground up
Real experiencewith vector databases and RAG-style retrieval architectures, not just reading about them
Strong relational database skills: schema design, query optimization, and migration discipline
AI-augmented delivery: you use AI across the delivery lifecycle, not just code generation, and can say which models suit which problems and where youdon'tuse them. You review AI-generated code knowing its failure modes, and you have set the guardrails others work inside — review expectations for generated code, provenance and licensing checks, and clear boundaries for what customer data enters a prompt and what a security or compliance review will ask for.
End-to-end CI/CD ownership, from build and test through packaging and deployment
A self-starting,go-gettermindset: comfortable with ambiguity, fast iteration, and owning a problem until it'sactually solved
Bonus: experience with multi-agent orchestration frameworks (Semantic Kernel,LangChain, or similar) and LLM cost/observability tooling
