AI Software Engineer, Senior

Overview AI Software Engineer, Senior – you will design, develop, and deliver production AI applications that leverage generative AI, large language models (LLMs), and autonomous workflows. Your work will solve real‑world problems while ensuring scalability, reliability, security, and safety. Responsibilities Design and develop production AI applications that integrate foundation models, retrieval systems, external tools, and enterprise data sources. Architect modular and reusable AI components for prompting, retrieval, orchestration, tool execution, memory, and evaluation. Build AI applications that leverage structured outputs, embeddings, retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG), long‑context reasoning, and agentic workflows where appropriate. Develop data pipelines for ingesting, transforming, indexing, and refreshing structured and unstructured data used by AI applications. Implement evaluation frameworks to measure correctness, robustness, safety, and mission outcomes using both automated and human evaluation techniques. Optimize AI applications for latency, reliability, scalability, and operational cost through experimentation, benchmarking, and continuous improvement. Apply asynchronous programming and event‑driven design patterns to support long‑running workflows and distributed AI applications. Incorporate observability, monitoring, guardrails, access controls, and responsible AI practices throughout the application lifecycle. Deploy AI services securely on AWS or equivalent cloud platforms using Docker, Kubernetes, serverless, or other cloud‑native deployment patterns. Apply modern software engineering practices, including automated testing, CI/CD, prompt and workflow versioning, and safe rollout of AI updates. Leverage AI‑assisted development tools to accelerate implementation while maintaining engineering rigor, maintainability, and code quality. Collaborate with clients and cross‑functional teams to identify high‑value AI opportunities, rapidly prototype solutions, and transition successful concepts into production. Present technical solutions to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders. Qualifications 3+ years of professional software engineering experience. 2+ years of experience developing AI or machine‑learning solutions in a professional environment. Hands‑on experience building production AI applications using Python. Experience designing and implementing generative AI applications using large language models. Experience building retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG) solutions and integrating AI systems with enterprise data. Experience with AI orchestration frameworks such as LangChain. Experience developing AI applications that interact with external tools, APIs, or enterprise systems, and evaluating and improving AI application quality through testing, experimentation, or benchmarking. Experience deploying cloud‑native applications using cloud platforms such as AWS. Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technology field. Secret clearance is required; applicants selected will be subject to a security investigation. Nice to Have Experience building AI applications that incorporate autonomous or agentic workflows. Experience with multimodal AI applications involving text, images, audio, or documents. Experience designing AI evaluation, observability, or safety frameworks. Experience deploying portable, edge, or offline‑capable AI applications. Experience developing user interfaces that enable effective interaction with AI applications. Experience delivering technical solutions in client‑facing environments. Experience using AI‑assisted software development tools to improve engineering productivity. Master’s degree in Computer Science, AI, or a related technical field. Benefits Full‑time employees receive a comprehensive benefits package including health, life, disability, financial, and retirement benefits, paid leave, professional development, tuition assistance, work‑life programs, and dependent care. Part‑time employees working at least 20 hours per week may be eligible for select offerings. #J-18808-Ljbffr
