As a Senior AI Developer on the Corporate AI team, you will design and deliver enterprise-grade AI agents to transform data into actionable insights and streamline internal workflows. You will own the full development lifecycle, translating business problems into technical solutions by collaborating directly with stakeholders to define requirements and launch features within set timelines. Your daily work involves building applications using Vertex AI, Anthropic models, and agentic frameworks like LangChain or LlamaIndex. You will implement RAG architectures utilizing vector databases such as Pinecone or Weaviate while ensuring all solutions adhere to enterprise security and compliance standards. The role requires proficiency in Python or Java, advanced prompt engineering, and experience integrating AI with internal tools and APIs. You will also contribute to team-wide coding standards and provide knowledge transfer within a distributed global team.

What you'll do

  • Design, build, and ship enterprise-grade AI agents and applications using Vertex AI, Anthropic, and other cloud-based services.
  • Translate complex business problems into technical requirements by working directly with stakeholders to define actionable use cases.
  • Manage the full development lifecycle including coding, testing, deployment, and iterative performance improvements for AI solutions.
  • Integrate AI agents with internal tools, APIs, and enterprise systems to create seamless automated workflows.
  • Monitor production AI solutions to investigate issues, improve performance, and refine user experience based on metrics.
  • Establish team-wide standards for AI development, including coding patterns, observability, and governance protocols.
  • Provide knowledge transfer and mentoring to help colleagues effectively utilize AI tools and patterns.

What we're looking for

  • 3+ years of senior-level software development experience.
  • 2+ years of experience focused on AI development in an enterprise environment.
  • Strong programming skills in languages used for AI and cloud development such as Python or Java.
  • Hands-on experience building applications with generative AI platforms like Vertex AI, Anthropic, and related SDKs/ADKs.
  • Experience using agentic frameworks such as LangChain or LlamaIndex to build and deploy LLM-powered applications.
  • Experience implementing RAG architectures using vector databases like Vertex AI Vector Search, Pinecone, or Weaviate.
  • Advanced prompt engineering skills to design, test, and optimize prompts for specific outcomes.
  • Experience building internal tools for a corporate team rather than just external products (preferred).
