Location: Columbus, OH, United States

This role requires a strong AI-forward mindset. We are looking for engineers who don't just use AI they think with it, build with it, and know when not to use it.

Job Responsibilities

• Leverage AI-powered coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude) as core tools in daily development workflows writing, reviewing, debugging, and refactoring code with speed and precision
• Validate, critique, and iterate on AI-generated outputs rather than accepting them uncritically; apply sound engineering judgment to AI suggestions
• Continuously evaluate emerging AI tools and techniques, driving adoption where they deliver measurable productivity and quality gains
• Design, build, and deploy enterprise-grade AI solutions including Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, agentic AI systems, and LLM-powered workflows
• Architect AI systems with production-level concerns: scalability, cost management, latency, data privacy, hallucination mitigation, and observability
• Design, build, and deploy agentic solutions with enterprise grade identity, guardrails, tracing etc.
• Execute creative software solutions, design, development, and technical troubleshooting with the ability to think beyond routine or conventional approaches. Develop secure, high-quality production code and review and debug code written by others
• Apply strong systems thinking understand how components connect end-to-end, where failures occur, and how changes propagate across distributed systems
• Identify opportunities to eliminate or automate remediation of recurring issues to improve overall operational stability
• Lead evaluation sessions with external vendors, startups, and internal teams to probe architectural designs, technical credentials, and applicability within existing systems
• Influence stakeholders and drive alignment across teams without direct authority, and own outcomes end-to-end take accountability when things go well and when they don't

Required Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

• Formal training or certification in software engineering concepts and 5+ years of applied experience
• Demonstrated fluency with AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor) not just familiarity, but daily integrated use
• Hands-on experience building AI/ML-powered features or products  RAG systems, AI agents, prompt engineering, or LLM integration in production or near-production environments
• 3+ years of hands-on experience with AWS cloud services
• Proficiency in Python programming
• Experience with Django or another web backend framework
• Experience with React or another modern UI framework
• Strong experience with Terraform and infrastructure-as-code principles
• Solid understanding of system design, data structures, and algorithms
• Demonstrated adaptability ability to operate effectively in fast-changing, ambiguous environments and deliver at speed
• Strong problem-solving skills with a structured, evidence-based approach to decision-making

Preferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

• Experience with AI orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Google ADK, or similar)
• Experience with vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector, Chroma, or similar) and embedding models
• Understanding of LLM evaluation, guardrails, and responsible AI practices (accuracy, cost, bias, data privacy)
• Exposure to Data Engineering tools and platforms, especially Databricks
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices
• Knowledge of other cloud platforms (Azure, GCP) is a plus
