AI Engineer

Job Description

Insight Global is looking for an AI engineer to support a remote team who is working on a complex legacy-to-Python migration and multiple customer-facing platforms. We don't need another developer — we need someone whose primary job is to make the entire team 3-5x faster by building AI-powered automation across every phase of the SDLC: requirements extraction, code generation, testing, defect analysis, and release.

This person doesn't just use AI — they architect AI-driven engineering workflows that multiply the output of every developer on the team.

Environment Python, Java/Spring Boot, Elasticsearch, Azure (AKS, Cosmos DB), Git Hub, Jira, HPCC/ECL (legacy) | Git Hub Copilot, Claude, SDD, AI-DLC | Agile, 2-week sprints

Pay Rate: 50-60/hr. determined by the hiring manager during the interview process

• AI Agent Development & Orchestration: #1 differentiator. Proven experience building multi-step AI agent workflows for engineering tasks — chaining code analysis ? generation ? validation ? feedback. Git Hub Copilot, Claude, Lang Chain, custom agents, or equivalent.
• SDLC Automation & Dev Ops:
  Track record of automating significant portions of the delivery lifecycle — CI/CD, automated testing, code quality gates, release automation (Git Hub Actions).
• Python (strong proficiency):
  Primary codebase is Python — data processing, JSON transformations, modular architecture. Must build tooling and review/generate code at scale.
• Automated Testing Frameworks: AI-augmented regression suites, diff/comparison tooling, scenario-based test generation, golden-file validation. pytest, CI integration.
• Advanced Prompt Engineering:
  Complex multi-step prompts for code generation, legacy code analysis, business rule extraction. Knows how to structure context, manage token limits, and validate AI outputs.

• Legacy code analysis — Parsing unfamiliar proprietary languages to extract business logic via AI
• Java / Spring Boot — Secondary platforms are Java-based
• Elasticsearch, Azure / AKS / Cosmos DB — Platform technologies
• Healthcare data / MDM domain

• AI-native thinker — Every manual process is an automation opportunity. AI is the primary development engine, not a side tool.
• Force multiplier — Measures success by how much faster they make the entire team, not by their own code output
• Builder of systems — Creates reusable tooling, agent templates, and playbooks the whole team adopts
• Pragmatic and fast — Ships working automation in days, not weeks. Iterates rapidly.
