AI Application Developer

About the Role

The AI Application Developer builds and integrates AI-powered capabilities into enterprise applications and platforms. This role designs and delivers production ready features such as conversational assistants, AI agent workflows, and retrieval augmented generation (RAG) components, working closely with the Solution Architect, Project and Product Manager, and AI engineers.

The role also supports the end to end AI pipeline, including data ingestion and parsing, embedding and indexing, retrieval, prompt and orchestration workflows, evaluation, and continuous improvement through feedback. The initial focus is on the AI in a Box platform, but the role will also support other AI projects across Product Engineering. As priorities evolve, the developer will be assigned to other AI initiatives, including new AI products, automation workflows, and enterprise integrations, while ensuring solutions are secure, maintainable, and ready for deployment.
