Job Description

We are looking for a Senior AI Engineer who bridges the gap between cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence and robust Software Engineering. In this role, you won't just build prototypes; you will design, develop, and scale production-grade, secure intelligent systems for a highly demanding corporate environment.

You will act as a Tech Lead, serving as a hands-on guide for backend and AI implementation, ensuring best practices, software reliability, and technical rigor across our generative AI and automation initiatives.

In this role, you will:

  • Act as the Tech Lead for complex AI projects, writing clean, production-ready backend code and moving AI solutions beyond prototypes into scalable architectures;

  • Design and implement cutting-edge Generative AI, LLMs, and Multi-agent systems (particularly advanced enterprise chatbots and decision-support tools) tailored for secure corporate environments;

  • Enforce software engineering best practices, including robust testing (unit, integration, E2E), CI/CD pipelines, and clean code architecture;

  • Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior engineers, fostering a culture of technical growth, reliability, and continuous learning;

  • Stay at the forefront of AI advancements, proactively identifying new tools and techniques to integrate into our stack;

Qualifications

Core Backend & Software Engineering:

  • This is a software engineering-heavy role. You must have a proven track record of developing robust backend systems using Python;

  • Hands-on, practical experience building and optimizing high-performance APIs using FastAPI;

  • Deep understanding of software environments, version control, automated testing frameworks, and architecture best practices;

AI & Generative AI Expertise:

  • Strong conceptual knowledge and practical experience implementing Gen AI, LLMs, Prompt Engineering, and Multi-agent systems;

  • Proven experience developing and deploying advanced chatbots or virtual assistants within complex, highly regulated corporate environments;

  • Solid understanding of model evaluation, integration, and ensuring model reliability/security in production;

Cloud & Infrastructure:

  • Solid experience with public cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure);

  • Familiarity with containerization and orchestration and data pipelines;
