At Curio Wellness we empower people to thrive by adapting plant nature to human nature. We are committed to transforming the conversation around cannabis, fostering a deeper understanding of its benefits, and ensuring that every product we offer meets the highest standards.
Be bold. Be exceptional. Be well.
We are looking for a Junior Full Stack & DevOps Engineer to help build, integrate, and operate the data platforms, internal applications, and cloud infrastructure that power Curio’s analytics, automation, and AI capabilities. This is a hands-on growth role for an early-career engineer who enjoys working across the stack and is excited to build deep skills in DevOps and cloud operations. You will write application and pipeline code, and you will also help keep our build, deployment, and monitoring systems running reliably—learning alongside senior engineers who will mentor you throughout. We are an AI-forward engineering team in two senses. We use AI tools every day to write, review, and ship code faster, and we build AI and LLM-powered capabilities into the products and platforms we deliver. We are looking for someone who is genuinely excited to work this way and to help shape how Curio puts AI to work. You will contribute to: Full stack application and API development Data pipeline and integration support CI/CD, cloud infrastructure, and deployment automation Monitoring, observability, and operational reliability AI-augmented engineering and AI/LLM-powered features
