The Principal AI Development Engineer joins the GTO team as a strategic leader and primary architect for the organization's AI transformation. This role involves leading high-impact initiatives from conception to production, defining the technical roadmap for agentic systems, and serving as the lead technical liaison between GTO and business units. The engineer will build agentic workflows, RAG architectures, and complex orchestrations while integrating fullstack development with AI logic. Key technologies include Python, LangGraph, CrewAI, and vector databases such as Pinecone, Weaviate, or Milvus. Additionally, the role requires expertise in Kubernetes, Docker, GitHub, and Test-Driven Development to deploy non-deterministic software at scale. The work focuses on bridging IT infrastructure with core design engineering business units by developing scalable agentic solutions for a diverse mix of hardware and software assets.

What you'll do

  • Architect and lead the end-to-end development of large-scale agentic AI systems for global business units.
  • Define the long-term technical roadmap for AI orchestration and agentic frameworks like LangGraph.
  • Translate complex engineering challenges from various business units into scalable, next-generation AI solutions.
  • Integrate production-grade fullstack development with advanced AI logic to build non-deterministic software at scale.
  • Partner with infrastructure teams to optimize the deployment of AI models and vector databases in Kubernetes environments.
  • Conduct formal design reviews and mentor senior staff to improve overall team technical capabilities.
  • Communicate complex AI roadmaps and project statuses clearly to both technical squads and executive stakeholders.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field is required; Master's or PhD preferred.
  • Minimum of 12 years of software engineering experience leading and delivering complex, large-scale projects.
  • Expert-level experience building agentic workflows, RAG architectures, and complex orchestration using tools like LangGraph or CrewAI.
  • Deep hands-on experience in fullstack development with mastery of Python and modern enterprise-grade languages.
  • Expert knowledge of vector databases such as Pinecone, Weaviate, or Milvus to scale data systems.
  • High proficiency in Kubernetes, Docker, and modern CI/CD patterns for production-ready AI deployments.
  • Expertise in version control, Test-Driven Development (TDD), and automated testing tailored for AI outputs.
  • Proven ability to conduct peer evaluations and formal design reviews to drive architectural excellence.
