Async AI Job Queue

Build a queue where users submit long AI tasks — document analysis, batch summarization — and poll for results. Handle failures, retries, dead letters, and status webhooks.

You will learn to:

• Understand the job queue pattern and when to use async processing
• Set up and connect Celery with Redis as a message broker
• Build APIs for job submission, status polling, and result retrieval
• Implement automatic retries with exponential backoff for failed tasks
• Diagnose and handle edge cases: stale running jobs, partial failures
