About the role
- Combining deep technical expertise with leadership skills, you will mentor teammates, guide architectural decisions, and ensure the delivery of scalable, high-quality software solutions.
- This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, loves solving complex problems, and is excited about taking ideas from concept to deployment in a domain where AI is transforming a legacy industry.
Responsibilities
- Design, develop, document, and maintain robust prototypes and scalable production systems, with a focus on applied AI/ML, RAG architectures, and agentic workflows.
- Build and improve document ingestion pipelines that form the knowledge foundation of the platform, ensuring data enrichment, accuracy, and compliance with manufacturer standards.
- Participate in and often lead brainstorming sessions, design reviews, code reviews, and architecture evolution discussions, ensuring best practices and long-term technical sustainability.
- Contribute to the analysis of business requirements, prepare design and implementation recommendations, and provide reliable development effort estimates.
- Work collaboratively across Product, Data, Design, and QA teams to drive outcomes aligned with business objectives and the product roadmap.
- Review and provide feedback on the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs, ensuring seamless integration with backend systems and AI capabilities.
- Design workflows that use AI to accelerate the growth of junior talent rather than automating them out of the process.
- Proven track record deploying generative AI, LLMs, RAG architectures, or document ingestion pipelines with data enrichment in a production environment.
- Solid understanding of microservices architecture, API design, and cloud infrastructure.
Requirements
- Experience with React, React Native, or modern frontend frameworks and how they integrate with AI-powered backends.
- Demonstrated ability to mentor junior engineers and influence technical direction without formal authority.
- Experience working in a startup environment is considered a strong asset.
- Experience with agentic workflows, prompt engineering best practices, and AI-first development tooling (e.g., Claude Code or similar) is a strong asset.
- Familiarity with the agriculture, heavy equipment, or dealership domain is a strong asset.
- You've owned things before they were fully defined, and you know the corner you can cut now from the one that costs you in six months.
- You know which results hold up in production and which quietly fall apart once the inputs get messy.
