About the role

About the Engagement

This role is part of a pilot delivery model focused on high-impact, fast-paced engineering using senior individual contributors. The objective is to test a new approach where experienced engineers leverage AI tools and modern architectures to deliver faster and higher-quality outcomes.

The Opportunity

We are looking for highly experienced Staff Software Engineers (10–15+ years) who can own end-to-end delivery, from problem definition through architecture, build, and deployment.

This role requires a blend of strong technical depth and consulting capability, working closely with stakeholders to translate ambiguous problems into working solutions.

What You’ll Do

End-to-End Delivery

  • Own the full lifecycle: scoping, architecture, development, deployment, and iteration
  • Build production-grade applications across frontend, backend, and data layers
  • Deliver solutions quickly using AI-assisted development workflows

Architecture & System Design

  • Design scalable, modern architectures across APIs, cloud, and data platforms
  • Translate business problems into technical solutions
  • Make independent architectural decisions in ambiguous environments

AI & Agentic Systems

  • Build and deploy agentic systems (beyond chatbots)
  • Design multi-agent workflows, tool usage, and orchestration patterns
  • Implement guardrails, evaluation frameworks, and monitoring for AI systems

Engineering Excellence

  • Develop reusable components, frameworks, and accelerators
  • Contribute to improving development standards and practices
  • Rapidly prototype and deliver working solutions for stakeholders

What You Need

Must-Have

  • 10–15+ years of software engineering experience
  • Strong full-stack skills (React, Node.js or .NET, APIs, databases)
  • Experience with cloud platforms (Azure or equivalent)
  • Hands-on experience using AI development tools (e.g., Copilot, Claude, Cursor)
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently
  • Experience building complex systems, integrations, or scalable applications

Nice to Have

  • Experience with agentic systems or AI-based architectures
  • Integration platform experience (e.g., MuleSoft or similar)
  • Exposure to data platforms (e.g., Databricks, Spark)
  • Consulting or client-facing experience
  • Experience building reusable tools or frameworks

Accessibility & Accommodation

We are committed to building an inclusive and accessible workplace.
