Senior AI Solutions Engineer

Astek

Canada · Hybrid Full-time Senior CA$100k – CA$115k/yr 3d ago

About the role

What we will accomplish together

You will join a technology environment where AI is moving fast—but production delivery matters more than experimentation.

Your role is to turn AI ambition into real, scalable, production-ready solutions by building reusable frameworks, reference architectures, and engineering patterns that unblock teams and accelerate delivery.

This is not a one-off application role.

You are here to multiply impact across teams, not just ship a single solution.

Your mission (should you choose to accept it)

As a Senior AI Solutions Engineer, you operate at the intersection of software engineering, applied AI, and platform thinking.

Your success is measured by:

  • How many teams you enable
  • How quickly AI solutions reach production
  • How broadly your frameworks and patterns are adopted

You build real systems, not demos—and you design them to last.

Your day-to-day responsibilities

  • Design and deliver production-grade AI-enabled applications using modern full-stack and cloud-native architectures
  • Build reusable AI frameworks and reference implementations (RAG, document processing, agent/workflow patterns)
  • Integrate AI capabilities into enterprise platforms with strong engineering discipline
  • Apply AI-first delivery practices to reduce friction and accelerate outcomes
  • Implement applied GenAI patterns: prompt/tool orchestration, agentic workflows, evaluation, and guardrails
  • Design model-agnostic solutions resilient to rapid AI ecosystem change
  • Own engineering excellence: CI/CD, automated testing, observability, monitoring
  • Mentor engineers and lead architecture/design reviews
  • Partner with stakeholders to deliver shippable, production-ready milestones

Your future team

You will work with globally distributed, agile engineering teams responsible for mission-critical, high-volume platforms operating at scale, where resilience, security, and governance are non-negotiable.

Your tech stack

  • Languages: Java and/or Python
  • Backend: APIs, distributed services, event-driven architectures
  • AI / GenAI: RAG, LLM orchestration, agents, prompt design, evaluation & guardrails
  • Cloud: Azure (preferred)
  • DevOps: CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, telemetry, monitoring
  • Data & Messaging: Vector databases, embeddings, Kafka or high-throughput messaging systems

You are

  • A builder with an AI-first mindset, focused on scale and reuse
  • Experienced (6+ years) in delivering and operating production full-stack systems
  • Strong in system design, scalability, resiliency, and security
  • Hands-on with real GenAI applications in production, not just POCs
  • Comfortable in regulated or enterprise environments
  • Able to simplify complexity and raise the engineering bar across teams
  • A clear technical communicator who influences through impact, not hierarchy

Why join Astek

  • Up to 4 weeks of vacation + 5 personal days
  • Comprehensive group insurance (telemedicine + Employee Assistance Program)
  • Public transit reimbursement
  • Mobile phone plan reimbursement
  • Professional order membership reimbursement
  • Annual sports & wellness allowance
  • Annual IT equipment allowance
  • Referral bonus program
  • Regular social activities (team events, 5@7s, team buildings…)
