Description

You will drive the design, delivery, and evolution of modern web applications, APIs, and system integrations, using AI to accelerate development and ship intelligent product features. This role blends engineering leadership (architecture, standards, mentoring, reviews) with building secure, scalable integrations across internal and external systems. You will also integrate LLM and AI services (chat, document processing, summarization, search, workflow automation) while ensuring AI-generated output is validated for quality and security.
