AI platform for academic authors
We are looking for a Python / FastAPI developer for a project — an AI platform for academic authors and scientific journals. We help authors publish in the right journals and help editorial teams maintain indexing in Scopus.
The product is already designed, the team is assembled, and development is actively ongoing. There is a lead developer responsible for the system's foundation (FastAPI, PostgreSQL, browsing agent, Stripe), so we are not looking for an architect — we need a strong performer who can quickly get involved in the work, take clear tasks, and deliver results. All tasks are isolated, and there will be no blockers.
What you will need to do:
The work is structured in the format of isolated milestone tasks, each of which is submitted and paid separately.
Main tasks:
M1 — PDF templates + email delivery
HTML templates for PDF reports
WeasyPrint or ReportLab
Resend delivery
retry logic
automatic file deletion 24 hours after delivery
M2 — AI Topic Generator
FastAPI endpoint
integration of OpenAI / Claude API
LLM call
optionally: parsing aims & scope of the journal through browsing agent
M3 — Article Readiness
LLM analysis of the article annotation
checklist scoring (0–100%)
JSON result for each item
PDF report
M4 — Article Brief Generator
URL of the journal → browsing agent → LLM
generation of personalized article brief
working with RAG and instructional files
Stack
– Python / FastAPI — main backend
– LLM API: OpenAI or Anthropic (Claude) — direct calls and RAG
– WeasyPrint or ReportLab — PDF generation
– Resend — email delivery
– PostgreSQL — read the existing schema, do not design
– Linux / Hetzner VPS — deployment and testing
– Git / GitHub
It would be a plus
– Experience with browsing agents (Playwright, Puppeteer, or similar)
– Experience with RAG (pgvector, Pinecone, or similar)
– Familiarity with Stripe (not mandatory)
Who we are looking for
We do not need an architect or generalist.
We are looking for a Middle Python Backend Developer with experience in FastAPI + LLM, who:
can take a clear technical task and independently deliver the task to completion
has experience working with FastAPI in production
has worked with OpenAI / Claude API or other LLM integrations
understands backend logic and API integrations
writes clean code (there will be code review from the lead developer)
does not require constant micromanagement
does not disappear after the first week of work
communicates honestly if something is unclear
Ideally, if there is experience with:
PDF generation
email delivery systems
browsing agents
RAG systems
production AI tools

196 Hello, I can connect to isolated milestone tasks in your FastAPI stack.
I have practical experience with backend workflow, LLM endpoint, PDF generation, and delivering reports to users. For your tasks, I see separate blocks: PDF templates via WeasyPrint/ReportLab, retry logic for delivery, auto-cleaning of files, topic generator via LLM, checklist scoring with JSON/PDF report.
I work carefully alongside the lead developer: first, I agree on the API contract, then I create a small working module, tests, edge cases, and a brief documentation for launching.

2116 20 0 ітаю,
Прочитав детально — Middle Python Backend Dev для milestone-задач M1–M4, з готовим lead developer і архітектурою. Це мій профіль 1:1.
Стек, з яким працюю щоденно: FastAPI + Pydantic v2 + SQLAlchemy/asyncpg + PostgreSQL, LLM-інтеграції з Anthropic (Claude) і OpenAI з prompt caching, RAG поверх pgvector, browsing-агенти через Playwright, deploy на Hetzner + Docker. Я свій side-проєкт тримаю саме на цьому стеку — Claude API + prompt caching + FastAPI + SQLite, з MCP-сервером для управління.
По кожному milestone коротко:
- M1 PDF + email: WeasyPrint надійніше за ReportLab для довгих документів, Resend — гарний вибір. Auto-delete через 24 год — APScheduler або сам Resend (вони підтримують через API). Retry — tenacity з exponential backoff.
- M2 Topic Generator: FastAPI endpoint + Claude streaming, optional browsing через Playwright або через ваш існуючий browsing agent.
… - M3 Article Readiness: structured output (Anthropic tool-use або OpenAI function calling), JSON schema на чек-лісті, PDF звіт через ту ж M1-інфраструктуру.
- M4 Article Brief: browsing agent → витяг aims & scope → RAG retrieval поверх instruction files → LLM generation.
Як працюю: чисто беру милстоун, уточнюю питання якщо щось у ТЗ неоднозначне, доводжу до passing tests + code review від lead, після прийняття переходжу до наступного. Не зникаю, комунікую через будь-який канал (Slack/Discord/Telegram).
Готовий до короткого діалогу і пробного M1 — це найшвидший спосіб перевірити сумісність.

3067 11 0 1 Hello!
I am interested in your project. I work with Python and FastAPI in production, and I also have experience integrating LLM (OpenAI / Claude), building backend APIs, and AI logic for application systems.
I have worked on tasks related to LLM text analysis, generating structured results (JSON/PDF), integrating external APIs, email delivery, and automating backend processes. I have also worked with RAG approaches and agent scenarios (including browsing/data extraction logic).
I am comfortable with the stack: FastAPI, PostgreSQL, LLM API, PDF generation, Resend, deployment on Linux.
I am ready to quickly engage in milestone format tasks and work in a team process with code review.
…
I can start with the upcoming tasks.

650 2 0 Hello!
Your stack matches our profile: FastAPI, Claude/OpenAI API, Playwright, PostgreSQL. I have experience with each of the milestones you described.
Regarding the tasks:
M1 — PDF + email: I have done PDF generation using ReportLab, delivery with retry logic, auto-cleaning of files — a standard task.
M2/M3 — LLM integration: I have worked with Claude API and OpenAI, JSON-structured output, scoring systems — I understand how to build this correctly.
…
M4 — browsing agent + RAG: I have experience with Playwright for parsing dynamic pages, familiar with the RAG approach.
The format of isolated milestone tasks is convenient — I take the task, submit the result, without unnecessary micromanagement.
I am ready to discuss the details for each!

937 5 0 1 Hello! I am Volodymyr, the founder of the engineering agency Vaysed. The AI platform project for academic authors is a great initiative. The specifics of working with scientific articles, strict journal requirements, and indexing in Scopus are very familiar to me due to my ongoing work with academic research for university practical tasks. I fully understand the pains of authors and the importance of precise LLM analysis of annotations.
I am ready to quickly integrate into your team as a strong performer. I am most comfortable with a work format that includes clear isolated milestone tasks under the guidance of your lead developer, where there is already a ready PostgreSQL schema and an architectural foundation laid on FastAPI.
Regarding the main milestones:
For **M1**, I will implement PDF report generation through WeasyPrint (it is more flexible in working with HTML/CSS templates), set up integration with Resend for email delivery with reliable retry logic, and a mechanism for background file deletion after 24 hours.
In **M2 and M3**, I have extensive practical experience with direct calls to OpenAI and Claude API, particularly with setting up strict JSON responses for checklist scoring. We will extract the aims & scope of the journal through Playwright — a powerful tool that I regularly use for creating browsing agents and parsing.
For **M4**, I will set up a pipeline where the browsing agent will retrieve context via URL, and the LLM will work through a RAG architecture to generate a personalized article brief according to your instructional files.
My main working tool is the Linux OS (Fedora), so working with your Hetzner VPS, deployment, and testing will happen completely naturally and without delays. I write clean code that easily passes code review, work autonomously, always communicate honestly about statuses, and do not disappear during work.
You can evaluate my engineering approach and implemented cases on the agency's website: https://vaysed.me/. Message me privately so we can discuss the details of the first milestone (M1) and start working promptly!

716 4 0 The most important thing here is not to "invent a system from scratch," but to quickly and stably integrate individual AI modules into an already prepared backend ecosystem. This is the format in which I work most effectively: I take isolated tasks, quickly dive into the codebase, and bring the milestone to a production-ready result without delays and constant support. I have practical experience with FastAPI, integrations with OpenAI/Claude API, PDF generation, API orchestration, and backend logic for AI products. I understand the specifics of working with LLM: retries, structured JSON responses, prompt control, stability of results, rate limits, handling edge cases, and optimizing inference costs. I am also well-acquainted with approaches to RAG, asynchronous task processing, and integrations with external services. I write code in a structured manner, with proper decomposition, logging, and clear API logic, so passing code review will not be a problem. If needed, I can provide examples of relevant work upon request.
Work plan:
1. Analyze the current backend structure, PostgreSQL schemas, API flow, and milestone requirements.
2. Implement M1: PDF report generation via WeasyPrint or ReportLab, email delivery via Resend, retry mechanism, cleanup of temporary files.
3. Implement M2: FastAPI endpoint for AI Topic Generator, integration with OpenAI/Claude API, structured output, error handling, and optional parsing via browsing agent.
4. Implement M3: AI analysis of abstract/article readiness, checklist scoring, formation of JSON responses and PDF report.
5. Implement M4: pipeline journal URL → browsing agent → LLM → article brief generation with support for RAG and instruction files.
… 6. Test endpoints, check stability of AI calls, logging, and optimize response flow.
7. Integrate into the team's Git workflow, prepare for code review, and deploy on Linux/Hetzner VPS.

1872 9 0 Good day.
The task is clear. We need a Middle Python/FastAPI developer for the team to work on isolated milestone tasks involving LLM, PDF generation, browsing agents, and RAG.
The stack is exactly what we use. FastAPI daily, OpenAI and Anthropic in production, Resend for email, PostgreSQL with pgvector for RAG, Playwright for browsing. These are tools we constantly work with, not ones we are learning for the project.
Relevant case: BrandSync AI, a production SaaS with a GPT-4 pipeline through Redis and queues. Architecturally similar to your tasks: AI content analysis, JSON results based on checklists, generation of personalized documents. Another project, Winbix.AI, is an AI agent platform with RAG and browsing.
Regarding milestones:
…
M1 (PDF + email). WeasyPrint for templates with full CSS, Resend with webhook handling for retries, scheduler for auto-deletion.
M2 (Topic Generator). FastAPI endpoint with LLM-call, structured output through function calling, optional browsing via Playwright.
M3 (Article Readiness). LLM analysis with structured output based on a checklist, JSON schema for each item, PDF report.
M4 (Article Brief). Browsing agent via Playwright for the journal, RAG through pgvector, generation of a brief with instructional files as system prompts.
The format of isolated milestones with separate payments is suitable. We work with a clear technical specification, and we accept code reviews from the lead developer calmly, applying feedback quickly.
We are ready to take one milestone as a test. If the collaboration and code quality are satisfactory, we will continue with the rest.
Portfolio: quentar.space/en/startups
I await your message in private.

726 9 1 Hello! I have reviewed your project and am ready to start working. I can guarantee excellent results in a short time.

843 4 0 1 Hello. I have thoroughly reviewed the project description and milestones. The format of isolated tasks with a clear technical specification and a well-understood project foundation suits me perfectly. I have strong experience working with the backend on FastAPI and writing clean asynchronous code that will easily pass code review from your lead. I constantly work with OpenAI and Claude API, particularly for complex parsing, generating structured JSON responses, and scoring texts, which perfectly addresses tasks M2 and M3. I am also familiar with implementing PDF generation through WeasyPrint, followed by sending via Resend, and I handle the logic for retries and file cleanup using built-in background tasks in FastAPI without putting extra load on the system. I know how to work with parsers and RAG systems for report generation and understand how to properly feed the model context. Could you please let me know if you are already using a specific vector database for the fourth milestone with RAG, such as pgvector, or will I need to implement this solution myself as part of the task?

Проект виглядае як вакансія, будь ласка перекваліфікуйте з проектної роботи.

Вітаю
Проект виглядає реалістичним і гарно обмеженим.
Але я би запропонував наступне:
1. Почати з M2 — AI Topic Generator2. Потім M3 — Article Readiness без PDF
3. Потім додати PDF generation
4. Потім email delivery
5. Потім M4, тому що browsing + RAG найбільш ризиковані
6. На останок - найбрудніша за дрібницями: M1, тому що PDF/email/cleanup/retry зазвичай вимагають багато акуратної обв'язки.Проект нормальний, але опис трохи "продає". Реальна складність залежатиме від того, наскільки вже готова база:
FastAPI структура
PostgreSQL моделі
browsing agent
RAG
background tasks
PDF шаблони
LLM prompts
acсeptance criteria
Головне - чи є готові ТЗ на кожен milestone з прикладами входу/виходу та критеріями приймання.
Без цього можна швидко застрягти не в коді, а в питаннях на кшталт: "а такий brief вважається хорошим чи ні?"
