Senior Full-Stack AI Engineer

Are you passionate about building next-generation software that combines modern full-stack engineering with intelligent AI-driven features?
We're looking for a Senior Full-Stack AI Engineer to help shape how digital products are built and experienced in a fast-moving, real-world business context.

About the Role

In this position, you'll be part of a cross-functional squad focused on developing AI-enhanced web applications.
You'll work across the stack – from integrating large language models (LLMs) into production systems to designing frontends that make AI interactions intuitive and trustworthy.
Rather than writing code line-by-line, you'll orchestrate modern AI systems that augment the engineering process itself and create real user impact.

What You'll Do

• Integrate large language models (LLMs) such as OpenAI, Claude, or Gemini into production features that solve real user problems.

• Build AI pipelines using frameworks like LangChain or LlamaIndex, designing prompts and workflows for accuracy, scalability, and cost-efficiency.

• Develop intuitive frontends in React/TypeScript that make AI capabilities clear, actionable, and user-friendly.

• Design real-time AI interactions and feedback loops that allow users to refine outputs directly within the interface.

• Build and maintain scalable microservices in Java/Spring Boot to orchestrate AI systems, manage state, and ensure reliability across distributed environments.

• Collaborate closely with product, platform, and AI engineers to translate business requirements into measurable, high-impact features.

• Implement robust error handling, testing, and monitoring strategies for AI-powered features in production.

• Contribute to a culture of experimentation and continuous improvement through code reviews, demos, and knowledge sharing.

What You Bring

• 4–6 years of experience as a Full-Stack Engineer (React + Java/Spring Boot or similar stack).

• Hands-on experience integrating AI/LLMs into production systems (minimum 6 months).

• Familiarity with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or custom AI pipelines.

• Strong understanding of microservices, RESTful APIs, and state management.

• Experience with CI/CD, testing, and agile development practices.

• Excellent communication skills and an outcome-oriented mindset.

• Curiosity for emerging AI engineering technologies and frameworks.

Nice to Have

• Experience in SaaS, InsurTech, PropTech, or other regulated industries.

• Familiarity with vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant).

• Background in computer vision or NLP.

• Contributions to open-source AI/ML projects.

• Knowledge of Kotlin or mobile development.

Why Join

• Build real-world AI-native software used by thousands of professionals.

• Collaborate in outcome-focused squads that value experimentation and learning.

• Work with a modern tech stack – React, TypeScript, Java, Spring Boot, LangChain, LlamaIndex, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini.

• Access to ongoing learning opportunities, conferences, and professional growth in AI engineering.
