AI-Augmented Software Developer

### DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT * Design and implement Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations and agent orchestration layers * Build and maintain AI SDLC pipelines, tooling, and automation logic across the development lifecycle * Implement agentic AI patterns, multi-agent workflows, and intelligent task automation * Work with tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and other AI engineering environments ### RESEARCH & EXPERIMENTATION * Evaluate emerging agentic AI models, frameworks, and toolkits * Build POCs and prototypes to benchmark scalability, reliability, and architecture fit * Propose optimal designs based on hands-on research and clear analysis of trade-offs ### CONSULTING & COLLABORATION * Work with product teams, architects, and clients to define requirements and shape AI SDLC solutions * Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders * Guide clients on AI tool adoption (both greenfield and brownfield) * 3–5+ years as a Software Engineer, including 1 year of extensive AI SDLC experience * Strong practical development experience — JavaScript/TypeScript preferred, but Python, Java, Go, etc. are also acceptable * Hands-on experience implementing: * AI orchestration frameworks * Autonomous agents & multi-agent systems * MCP integrations * Solid understanding of the AI model lifecycle, prompting, evaluation loops, and continuous improvement * Ability to work independently and own end-to-end technical delivery * Consulting experience or strong client-facing communication skills * Curiosity, experimentation mindset, and willingness to build greenfield AI solutions * Experience running POCs, technical evaluations, or benchmarking approaches ### NICE TO HAVE * Experience with vector databases, RAG, and embeddings * Background in backend engineering, MLOps, or system design * Understanding of LLM fine‑tuning or model customization * Experience integrating AI into production-grade applications ### PERSONAL PROFILE * Self-driven engineer with strong programming skills * Consulting mindset with ability to advise clients * Passion for experimenting with cutting-edge AI frameworks * Strong communication skills for cross-functional collaboration * Ability to deliver robust, scalable AI solutions We are looking for a highly skilled **AI-augmented Engineer** with strong engineering experience and deep hands-on exposure to AI SDLC, autonomous agents, multi‑agent systems, and AI orchestration frameworks. This role focuses on designing, building, and optimizing agentic AI systems — from autonomous agents and MCP integrations to complex orchestration layers for both new products and existing long‑running platforms. The ideal candidate combines strong programming skills (JavaScript/TypeScript preferred, but other languages are welcome) with an ability to work independently, evaluate different approaches, and structure efficient AI development workflows. A consulting mindset is essential — you should be able to advise clients, explain trade-offs, and guide them through adopting modern agentic AI practices.
