You will lead technical initiatives, define architectural standards, and mentor junior engineers, while working across the full stack from application code to AI integration and cloud infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities

• Application Development: Architect and lead the development of scalable, production-grade web applications, primarily using Python (FastAPI) for the backend and React, Next.js, or Vue for the frontend, while remaining adaptable to other technologies based on project scope and requirements
• Define and enforce coding standards, design patterns, and architectural best practices across the engineering team to ensure maintainability and scalability
• Lead code reviews, provide technical feedback to junior engineers, and actively contribute to building a high-quality engineering culture
• Collaborate with stakeholders and product teams to translate business requirements into robust technical solutions, owning features end-to-end
• AI & LLM Integration: Design and implement complex AI-powered features by integrating LLM APIs and services using frameworks such as LangChain or equivalent, with a focus on reliability and performance in production
• Own the architecture of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, including document processing, vectorization, semantic search, and query optimization for large-scale enterprise use cases
• Design, implement, and maintain Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations to connect AI models with external tools, APIs, and data sources, enabling context-aware and extensible AI solutions
• Design and maintain robust REST API integrations with third-party AI services and enterprise SaaS platforms, ensuring data integrity and performance at scale
• Implement LLM observability and monitoring strategies to ensure transparency, reliability, and continuous improvement of AI features in production environments
• Deployment & DevOps: Lead the containerization and cloud deployment of applications, preferably on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) using GKE and Artifact Registry, while remaining open to other cloud environments based on project requirements
• Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or equivalent tools, applying GitOps principles and automated deployment workflows to ensure reliable and repeatable releases
• Own the reliability and performance of production environments, proactively identifying bottlenecks and driving resolution of infrastructure and application issues

Qualifications

• 4 to 6 years of experience in software engineering and AI development, with a proven track record of delivering production-grade web applications and AI-powered systems
• Strong proficiency in Python and a backend framework (preferably FastAPI), with solid experience in a modern frontend framework such as React, Next.js, or Vue
• Deep understanding of LLMs, RAG architectures, and production-grade AI service integration (e.g., OpenAI, Gemini, LangChain or equivalent), including observability and performance monitoring
• Proven experience designing and implementing Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations to connect AI models with external tools, APIs, and enterprise data sources
• Hands-on experience with Docker and cloud deployment on at least one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, GCP, or equivalent), with familiarity with container orchestration and artifact management services
• Proven experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or similar tools, with strong command of GitOps workflows and branching strategies
• Demonstrated ability to lead technical initiatives, mentor junior engineers, and collaborate effectively with product teams and non-technical stakeholders
• Experience integrating AI outputs into analytical workflows, dashboards, or data pipelines in a client delivery context
• Bachelor s or Master s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field
• Preferred

Skills

• Experience with agentic AI frameworks such as LangGraph or similar orchestration tools for building multi-step AI workflows
• Knowledge of advanced prompt engineering, vector database management, and embedding model optimization for production environments
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform or Pulumi
• Relevant certifications such as Google Cloud Professional Developer or similar cloud and AI credentials
• What we offer: A competitive compensation and benefits package
• The opportunity to lead AI and technology initiatives with real global impact
• A dynamic and supportive work environment that values leadership, innovation, and your contributions
• Continuous learning and professional development opportunities to propel your career forward in AI and software engineering
