Software Development
AI Engineer (Applied/Software), Backend Developer, Software Architect
WHAT YOU'LL DO Core Platform Development
Implement AI platform components — including model serving layers, retrieval infrastructure, prompt management, and output evaluation services — under the guidance of Senior and Staff engineers
Develop and maintain APIs that product teams use to integrate AI capabilities into their applications
Build observability and monitoring into platform services to track output quality, latency, cost, and system health
Contribute to design discussions and provide input on trade-offs between simplicity, reliability, and scalability
Work with product engineering teams to understand how they want to use AI capabilities and translate requirements into platform features
Participate in technical design sessions and code reviews with product teams building on the AI platform
Help identify patterns where multiple product teams are solving the same AI integration problem and consolidate that work
Contribute to documentation, reference implementations, and runbooks that help product teams adopt AI platform services
Participate in defining and enforcing integration standards — API contracts, error handling patterns, cost attribution
Mentor junior engineers (Engineer I) and help them grow their understanding of AI systems and platform design
Implement evaluation and monitoring pipelines that give teams visibility into AI output quality and model behavior
Contribute to content safety standards and compliance guardrails appropriate for a regulated financial services environment
Help design systems that properly handle PII, maintain audit trails, and meet data residency requirements in AI pipelines
3–5 years of professional software engineering experience
Strong proficiency in backend engineering using Python, C#/.NET, Java, or Node.js
Solid understanding of algorithms, data structures, and system design principles
Hands‑on experience integrating large language models or ML models into production applications
Working knowledge of retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG) concepts, vector databases, and embedding pipelines
Experience building or contributing to shared services or platform components
Familiarity with cloud‑managed AI services (AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, or equivalent)
Experience with APIs, asynchronous processing, and event‑driven architectures
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent professional experience
Experience with LLM frameworks (Lang Chain, Llama Index, etc.) or prompt engineering
Familiarity with vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, or similar)
Knowledge of containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
Experience with observability tools and designing monitoring for ML/AI systems
Prior work in regulated industries with data handling, compliance or audit requirements
Experience with fintech, banking or other financial services environments
Active daily use of AI‑assisted development tools and understanding of their benefits and limitations
In‑depth knowledge of one or more programming languages (Python, C#, Java, Node.js, etc.)
Strong understanding of RESTful API design and web service architecture
Proficiency with SQL and relational databases
Experience with version control (Git) and CI/CD pipelines
Ability to write well‑tested, maintainable code and participate effectively in code reviews
As an AI Platform Engineer II, you'll deepen your expertise in AI systems and platform design. You'll take on increasingly complex components within the AI platform, participate more actively in architectural decisions with guidance from Senior engineers, and develop a strong understanding of how AI capabilities are reliably integrated across products. Your path toward Senior Engineer (L3) involves demonstrating the ability to lead the design and implementation of significant platform components, mentor engineers effectively, and think strategically about system‑wide tradeoffs and long-term maintainability.
