Lead AI Engineer

This is an opportunity to join a team that is still early enough to have a meaningful impact, but established enough that you’ll be working on production systems rather than experiments.
The person hired will have significant input into architecture decisions, help shape engineering standards, and play a key role in the continued growth of the AI platform.
If you’re an experienced AI engineer who enjoys building, mentoring, and solving complex technical problems, we’d welcome the opportunity to speak with you.

• Developing RAG pipelines, AI assistants, and agent-based applications
• Integrating LLMs with internal systems and business applications
• Building APIs and backend services using Python and FastAPI
• Working within Microsoft Azure to deploy, secure, and manage AI solutions
• Helping establish engineering standards, code quality practices, and architectural guidelines
• Reviewing code and mentoring other developers on the team
• Partnering with business and technical stakeholders to evaluate new use cases and solutions

What We’re Looking For
• 6+ years of software engineering experience
• 3+ years working with AI, machine learning, or enterprise AI solutions
• Strong Python development experience
• Experience building and deploying AI applications in Azure
• Experience with RAG architectures, vector search, and LLM integrations
• Experience with LangChain, LangGraph, or similar agent frameworks
• Ability to lead technical discussions and guide other engineers
• Strong understanding of architecture, scalability, security, and maintainability

Nice to Have
• Experience with MCP (Model Context Protocol)
• Node.js experience
• CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code experience
• Experience integrating with enterprise platforms such as SAP, SharePoint, or Confluence
