About the role

"I can be myself at work." You are more than a job title.
We want you to feel comfortable doing great work and bringing your best, authentic self to everything you do.
We value your talents, traditions, and uniqueness-and we're committed to fostering a strong sense of belonging in a respectful workplace.

Partner directly with business partners to understand their workflows, scope the highest-value opportunities, and translate ambiguous needs into clear technical specifications.
Design, build, and operate production generative AI applications - copilots, assistants, knowledge-search experiences, and agentic workflows - as reliable, production-grade systems rather than demos.
Architect and implement end-to-end retrieval-augmented generation pipelines, including parsing, ingestion, chunking strategy, embeddings, vector storage, retrieval, and prompt management.
Build agents and agentic workflows that plan and execute multi-step tasks within explicit, auditable boundaries, with guardrails that keep behavior safe and predictable.

Minimum 10+ years of professional software engineering experience, with strong proficiency in Python (or a comparable modern language).
Strong understanding of system design, APIs, distributed-systems concepts, and cloud-native development, with a track record of owning production systems on solid architectural foundations.
Experience implementing security, privacy, and compliance controls in production systems - for example IAM, encryption, audit logging, and data-governance practices, ideally in a regulated environment.

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
