AI Solutions Engineer

Job description

About the Role You're the backbone of delivery. As an AI Solutions Engineer, you'll own complex features end-to-end—from design through production—and produce work that sets the standard for the rest of the team. You'll build intelligent agents, agentic workflows, and Foundation Layer capabilities that multiple solutions depend on. This role sits between Junior Engineers and the Lead. You deliver independently on hard problems, contribute meaningfully to architecture decisions, and make the engineers around you better through code review and informal mentoring. The Lead sets technical direction; you execute it at a high level and push back when something doesn't make sense. We expect you to be self-directed. You'll take ambiguous requirements and turn them into working software. You'll make sound trade-off decisions. You'll know when to build something reusable and when to ship something specific. If you want deep technical ownership without the overhead of formal leadership, this is your role. Responsibilities Design & Deliver Own complex features and services end-to-end—design, build, test, deploy, monitor Build intelligent agents, conversational interfaces, and agentic workflows Develop Foundation Layer services—reusable AI capabilities exposed as REST APIs and MCP servers Design and implement integrations between AI capabilities and enterprise systems Make sound technical decisions independently, escalating when appropriate Troubleshoot complex issues across the full stack—prompts, orchestration, APIs, infrastructure Architecture & Technical Quality Contribute to architecture decisions and advocate for good design Identify opportunities to extract reusable capabilities from solution-specific work Write code that others can maintain—clean, well-tested, well-documented Drive quality improvements: better test coverage, better patterns, better tooling Evaluate new technologies and recommend adoption when they provide clear value Team Contribution Mentor junior engineers through pairing, code review, and coaching Conduct thorough, constructive code reviews that raise team quality Contribute to technical interviews and hiring decisions Share knowledge through documentation, design discussions, and informal teaching Propose and drive improvements to team processes and engineering practices Stakeholder Collaboration Translate business requirements into technical designs with appropriate trade-offs Provide accurate estimates and communicate risks proactively Partner with QA and Analysts to ensure quality and completeness Represent engineering perspectives in cross-functional discussions Qualifications Required 3–6 years of software engineering experience with demonstrated ability to deliver complex work independently Strong programming fundamentals in Python and/or TypeScript Experience designing and building APIs, services, or distributed systems Solid understanding of cloud platforms (Azure preferred, AWS/GCP acceptable) Track record of writing well-tested, production-quality code Experience with code review—both giving feedback that improves code and receiving it constructively Ability to take ambiguous requirements and deliver working solutions Preferred Experience building AI/ML applications, conversational interfaces, or intelligent automation Familiarity with LLM concepts: prompt engineering, RAG patterns, function calling, evaluation Experience with Microsoft Power Platform (Power Automate, Copilot Studio) Background in Azure AI services, OpenAI APIs, or similar LLM platforms Understanding of orchestration frameworks (Semantic Kernel, LangChain, or similar) Experience in staffing, HR tech, or workforce management Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines Technology Stack Languages: Python, TypeScript Platforms: Azure (Container Apps, Functions, AI Services), Microsoft 365 Agent Development: Copilot Studio, Power Automate, custom orchestration Data: REST APIs, Dataverse, SQL, Snowflake AI/ML: Large Language Models, prompt engineering, RAG patterns, MCP Tools: Git, GitHub, CI/CD pipelines, Docker We don't expect expertise in everything. We expect strong fundamentals and the ability to learn quickly. What We're NOT Looking For Configuration specialists who rely on drag-and-drop tools instead of writing code Engineers who deliver "good enough" and move on without considering maintainability Senior-by-title engineers who still need close supervision on design decisions People who treat AI as magic rather than engineering—we build, test, and iterate What Makes You Stand Out You write code you'd be comfortable handing to someone else to maintain You know when to build for reuse and when to ship something purpose-built You push back on bad ideas respectfully, including your own You make junior engineers better by working alongside them You take ownership of problems, not just tasks You've debugged something truly painful and came out the other side with a better system Career Growth This role sits in the middle of our engineering career track: Junior → Senior → Lead → Architect From here, you'll move toward the Lead role—taking on technical direction, formal mentoring, and broader architecture ownership. The path to Lead is about demonstrating consistent technical judgment, the ability to drive projects independently, and the willingness to make other engineers better. As a workplace, we focus on relationships – with each other, our clients and our candidates - in fact serving others is one of our core values. We support open communication and recognize that giving constructive criticism can be even harder than receiving it. We appreciate the fearless and the passionate, who force us to be better.
