In this role, you will combine strong software engineering expertise with modern AI-assisted development practices. You will work on building autonomous agents, integrating AI capabilities into development workflows, and enabling engineering teams to leverage AI tools effectively and responsibly.

You will play a key role in experimenting with emerging technologies, rapidly delivering proof-of-concepts, and helping establish best practices for AI-native software engineering across the organization.

Core skills you'll bring

• 8+ years of experience in software development using technologies such as Python, JavaScript, or similar programming languages
• Full-stack development experience is a plus
• Ability to rapidly prototype and deliver proof-of-concepts using AI-assisted development workflows
• Experience with LLM APIs such as OpenAI and Anthropic
• Experience with agent frameworks such as LangGraph, CrewAI, PydanticAI, or similar
• Experience working with Model Context Protocol (MCP)
• Experience structuring codebases and documentation for AI agent consumption, including markdown descriptors, skills definitions, folder structures, and tool-call schemas
• Experience managing LLM-related costs through model selection, caching strategies, and token budgeting
• Familiarity with RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) architectures and vector databases
• Strong understanding of modern software engineering principles and development practices
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
• Ability to work independently while contributing effectively within a team environment

Nice-to-have

• Experience building internal engineering tools and developer platforms
• Experience introducing AI-native practices into software development teams
• Experience with cloud environments and CI/CD platforms

The impact you'll create

• Leverage modern AI development tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and similar solutions to improve software delivery processes
• Apply AI-native engineering practices, including context management, spec-driven development, and reusable skills-based workflows
• Review, validate, and improve AI-generated code and agent outputs to ensure correctness, security, maintainability, and production readiness
• Evaluate emerging AI tools, frameworks, and methodologies and contribute to the organization's technology radar
• Design, develop, and maintain autonomous agents supporting Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) activities
• Integrate agents with platforms such as Jira, GitHub, and CI/CD systems through MCP
• Perform context engineering by organizing project knowledge, documentation, and code structures to optimize AI agent effectiveness
• Create documentation, workflow guides, and best practices for AI-assisted development
• Train and support engineering teams in adopting AI-native development workflows
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of engineering productivity through responsible and effective AI adoption
