The selected candidate will serve as an AI-Native Software Engineer, at times acting as a FDE, partnering closely with Business co builders, and architects.

We are looking for an individual who excels at understanding customer problems, framing opportunities, and collaborating with technical and non-technical teams to deliver meaningful solutions. Success in this role requires strong critical thinking, sound judgment, curiosity, communication skills, and the ability to influence without formal authority. More than technical expertise alone, we value individuals who demonstrate ownership, learning agility, customer focus, creativity, and a passion for solving business problems.

This role is responsible for understanding the why, what, and desired outcomes behind a solution before determining the how. The ideal candidate can navigate ambiguity, ask thoughtful questions, challenge assumptions constructively, and guide teams toward the right solutions.

  • Rapidly prototype, validate, and refine solutions with Business cobuilders, and business users, providing technical recommendations and accelerating the path from idea to production-ready solution.
  • Enable AI-native engineering by establishing and evolving engineering guardrails, governance models, reusable patterns, and agentic workflows that support rapid experimentation while maintaining security, reliability, and architectural integrity.
  • Leverage AI-native development tools and AI agents throughout the software development lifecycle, guiding agent execution, evaluating outcomes, and transforming prototypes into scalable, resilient, cost-effective, and production-ready solutions.
  • Evaluate and select right AI models based on business needs, performance, scalability, and cost considerations.
  • Perform architecture assessments and drive performance optimization, resiliency improvements, reduce technical debt, cost efficiency, and fault tolerance.
  • Design, build, and evolve APIs, microservices, and integration patterns using AI-assisted engineering practices, ensuring solutions are reusable, scalable, and aligned with enterprise architecture standards.
  • Utilize AI-powered development capabilities to accelerate cloud-native solution delivery on AWS.
