Role summary

We are seeking a hands-on Software Engineer with proven experience deploying enterprise-grade Generative AI solutions to join our Advanced Analytics & Research – GenAI team. The GenAI team has a dual mandate: we own and deliver specific high-value GenAI features for the platform while also serving as the center of excellence that guides product teams across the organization in adopting GenAI responsibly and effectively. In this role, you will balance building our team's owned AI capabilities with rotating across product engineering teams to provide expert guidance, hands-on support, and governance oversight.

The Challenge

GenAI technology evolves faster than any single team can track. Without active governance, teams will inevitably diverge—choosing different models, building redundant components, and missing opportunities to adopt emerging best practices. Our team ensures the organization benefits from rapid AI advancement while maintaining architectural consistency and reusability across all product teams.

What you’ll do

• Build owned AI capabilities (40-50% of time): Work within the GenAI team to design, develop, and operate specific GenAI features and shared services that are owned by our team. Contribute to our product roadmap, participate in sprint ceremonies, and deliver production-grade AI capabilities that serve as reference implementations for the broader organization.

• Embed & govern with product teams (40-50% of time): Rotate across product engineering teams as the technical representative of our team and AI steering committee, joining each squad for 1–3 sprints (typically working with 4–6 teams per year). You'll ensure proposed solutions align with enterprise architectural standards, leverage shared patterns and services our team has developed, and incorporate latest GenAI best practices. You'll review designs for compliance, identify reuse opportunities, prevent redundant builds, and guide teams toward approaches that support long-term maintainability and cross-team consistency.

• Architect production-grade solutions: Design and implement LLM patterns (e.g., RAG, finetuning, function/tool calling, agent workflows). Select models/services (e.g., Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Vertex AI) and integrate with existing microservices and data platforms.

• Data & retrieval: Build high quality retrieval pipelines (document chunking, metadata strategy, hybrid search) and manage vector stores for accuracy, coverage, and freshness.

• Quality, safety & governance: Establish evaluation pipelines (automatic and human-in-the-loop), prompt/version management, guardrails, incident playbooks, and Responsible AI controls (privacy, bias, safety).

• Performance & cost optimization: Instrument telemetry, monitor latency/quality, apply caching/streaming/batching, and manage token budgets to meet SLAs and reduce spend.

• Maintain technology radar: Stay current with the rapidly evolving GenAI landscape, evaluate new models/frameworks/patterns, and work with the steering committee to update enterprise standards. Ensure teams benefit from latest advancements without architectural chaos.

• Enable & upskill: Create reusable reference architectures, prompt libraries, SDKs/components (e.g., Semantic Kernel or LangChain), and run workshops/pairing sessions to elevate team capability.

What Success Looks Like

You will be successful when you consistently deliver high-quality features for our team's roadmap, when product teams you've worked with can independently maintain and evolve compliant AI features, when your reusable patterns are adopted across 3+ teams, and when architectural reviews show consistent alignment with enterprise standards across all GenAI implementations.

Team Context

You will join a team of software engineers and data scientists who collectively serve as the organization's GenAI center of excellence. The team owns specific platform AI capabilities while also providing governance, reusable services, and embedded consulting support to product engineering teams across the company. You will collaborate closely with teammates who may be embedded with other teams or working on our owned roadmap.

Qualifications

• Experience: 5+ years building ML/AI or data intensive software; demonstrated experience of delivering LLM solutions in an enterprise grade software (not just prototypes).

• Engineering: Strong coding in Python and one of TypeScript/Java; API/microservices, CI/CD, testing, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes).

• Cloud & data: Experience with Azure/AWS/GCP, ETL/ELT, data modeling, and data quality practices.

• LLM/GenAI: Practical knowledge of embeddings, prompt engineering, RAG, tool/agent frameworks, evaluation methods.

• Consulting skills: Excellent stakeholder management, facilitation, and change-management; clear written/verbal communication to technical and non-technical audiences.

Nice to have

• Domain knowledge in enterprise SaaS or industrial/energy data would help you understand context faster.

• Frontend integration experience (React) or chat UX design would be valuable for teams building user-facing AI features.

• Renewable energy domain experience would provide immediate credibility with product teams.

• Experiment design and product analytics skills would strengthen your ability to define success metrics for AI features.

Working model

You will balance two modes of work: contributing to your core team's owned AI features and rotating across product teams as an embedded specialist. When embedded, you will serve as your team's representative, ensuring architectural alignment and reusability, and enable sustainable handoffs so product squads can independently maintain compliant AI features after your engagement. You will work closely with your teammates who may be engaged in similar embedded work with other teams, sharing learnings and maintaining consistency in guidance across the organization.
