Turing.com review by full-stack developer from Colombia

"I feel like I’m Cristiano Ronaldo and Turing is my manager."

- Hernan, Fullstack Developer from Colombia

In his Turing.com review, Hernan, a highly-skilled full-stack developer from Bogota, Colombia, said he learnt the importance of spending quality time with friends and family. He also mentioned his love for football, electric guitars and spending time with his son.

Life before Turing jobs

With over 11 years of experience, Hernan has worked with several developer teams and product owners as a full-stack developer as well as a database administrator.

How did he learn about Turing US software jobs?

A loving father, Hernan was set on finding a job where he could spend more time with his son without any economic or professional compromise. Scanning the internet, he came across Turing. “I found [Turing] online. I gave the test, went through their vetting process, and was hired for one of their customers,” he says.

“The process was very short and convenient. The tests are designed to let only experienced and highly skilled developers in. I chose seven other tech stacks apart from my expertise. I would suggest everyone applying to Turing to try that too. It’s a lot of fun. Haha,” he exclaims.

How has his journey with Turing.com been so far?

Remote work offers an unmatched opportunity to optimize and manage time the way you see fit. For exceptional developers like Hernan, these benefits were holistic.

“I noticed that I spend more of my free time in ways I’d consider quality time: time spent with my family, with friends, working on things that are important to me, hobbies like playing electric guitar and football,” he says.

“Once I became a Turing developer, I saw a radical change in terms of growth, financial health, and personal life too. The payments are on time, and I always felt very secure and happy with my salary,” the Colombian developer remarks.

What's his take on Turing developers?

Turing is not just a work-space, it's an international family, always looking out for one another. Talking more about his experience, Hernan recalls, ”My Turing manager is very sweet. He always makes sure that I am happy with the work and lifestyle. I have the luxury of planning my own routine. I can take care of my baby son who is always just one door away. I get to be a part of his every moment.”

“I love what Turing is doing: hiring world-class developers and giving them the opportunity to work with amazing tech leaders on huge projects from their homes. I’ve got many meaningful interactions in my daily life, within and outside of work. That too while working on interesting projects from home, collaborating with people from all over the globe,” he mentions.

What's the final verdict?

Summing up his experience at Turing, Hernan observes: “There is complete transparency in their whole process. Without Turing, finding an opportunity to work for such US companies would have been really tough.”

“I feel like I am Cristiano Ronaldo and Turing is my manager. I don’t have to send CVs to companies, Turing finds the best opportunities for me. I have someone whom I can trust, who will never let me down, and will always try to give me the best career options,” he concludes.

If you’re a highly skilled developer, join Hernan today and enjoy a better quality of life while working with a world-class company. Go Boundaryless with Turing.

Senior Fullstack Engineer - Backend Heavy

Job Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Full Stack Engineer with a strong focus on backend architecture and expertise in artificial intelligence (AI) to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have 5-7 years of experience in designing, developing, and maintaining robust  full-stack applications, with deep expertise in Python, data structures, and backend database interactions, API design, authentication systems, and AI-driven technologies. You will play a critical role in architecting scalable, secure, and high-performance systems, integrating AI capabilities such as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), vector databases, large language model (LLM) APIs, and more to power our innovative solutions.

Key Responsibilities

● Design and implement scalable backend architectures for full-stack applications using Python and related frameworks (e.g., Django, Flask, FastAPI).
●  Develop and optimize complex data structures and algorithms to ensure efficient data processing and storage.
●  Architect and manage interactions with relational and non-relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB) and vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate) to support application and AI functionality.
●  Design, develop, and maintain secure, efficient, and well-documented RESTful APIs and GraphQL endpoints, integrating AI-driven features such as RAG and LLM APIs.
●  Implement robust authentication and authorization mechanisms (e.g., OAuth, JWT, SSO) to ensure system security.
●  Collaborate with frontend developers to integrate backend services and AI-powered features with user interfaces, ensuring seamless end-to-end functionality.
●  Develop and integrate AI solutions, including RAG pipelines, LLM API integrations (e.g., OpenAI, Hugging Face), and vector database queries for enhanced data retrieval and processing.
●  Perform data labeling, classification, and model training for AI-driven applications, ensuring high-quality datasets and model performance.
● Conduct red teaming exercises to evaluate and improve the security and robustness of AI systems and backend infrastructure.
●  Write clean, maintainable, and testable code, adhering to best practices and coding standards.
●  Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines to automate testing, deployment, and monitoring of backend and AI-driven applications, ensuring rapid and reliable delivery.
●  Optimize application and AI model performance, troubleshoot issues, and ensure high availability and reliability.
●  Mentor junior engineers, conduct code reviews, and contribute to architectural decisions, including AI strategy.
●  Stay updated on industry trends, emerging AI technologies, and backend development practices to recommend improvements and innovations.

Qualifications

● Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
●  5-7 years of professional experience in full-stack development, with a strong emphasis on backend systems.
●  Expertise in Python and its ecosystems (e.g., Django, Flask, FastAPI) for building scalable applications.
●  Strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software design principles.
●  Extensive experience with database management, including SQL (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL), NoSQL (e.g., MongoDB, Redis), and vector databases (e.g., FAISS, Quadrant, Pinecone, Weaviate).  
●  Solid understanding of embeddings and how these work with vector databases
●  Proven ability to design and implement secure APIs (REST, GraphQL) and authentication systems (OAuth, JWT, etc.).
●  Experience with AI technologies, including RAG, LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Hugging Face), vector databases, and model training/classification.
●  Familiarity with data labeling, preprocessing, and red teaming for AI model development and evaluation.
●  Knowledge of frontend technologies (e.g., JavaScript, React, Vue.js) to collaborate effectively with frontend teams.
●  Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and containerization (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) is a plus.
●  Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
●  Excellent communication skills and a passion for mentoring and knowledge sharing.


Preffered Skills

● Experience with microservices architecture and distributed systems.
●  Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices.
●  Familiarity with testing frameworks (e.g., pytest, unittest) and writing automated tests for both backend and AI components.
●  Understanding of AI security best practices, including red teaming and compliance standards (e.g., GDPR, OWASP).
●  Good understanding of AI techniques (e.g. (CoT, reasoning, MCP)
●  Contributions to open-source AI or backend projects or a strong portfolio showcasing relevant work.
●  Experience with frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar for building AI driven applications.
