• Guide the development of reusable AI capabilities and shared platform components across areas such as agent orchestration, tool use, retrieval-based systems, evaluation frameworks, observability, and guardrails.

• Champion engineering excellence through strong software design, code quality, automated testing, continuous integration, and continuous delivery practices.

• Ensure AI systems are built with measurable quality, production readiness, operational observability, and appropriate safety controls.

• Oversee technical debt and drive continuous improvement across AI platforms, services, and development standards.

• Identify and pursue opportunities to apply AI in ways that accelerate workflows, improve decision-making, and create scalable business impact across the firm.

Business Knowledge

• Engage directly with business stakeholders, product owners, and senior partners to understand priorities, shape solution direction, and align technical decisions to business outcomes.

• Apply strong product and engineering judgment to balance innovation, scalability, risk, and long-term maintainability.

• Translate complex business needs into robust, scalable technical solutions that support both immediate value delivery and broader enterprise adoption.

Qualifications

Required :

• BS or MS in Computer Science or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.

• 8+ years of progressive software engineering experience developing applications in object-oriented languages such as Java, Python, or JavaScript, including experience leading technical delivery across teams or major initiatives.

• Extensive hands-on experience architecting and delivering cloud-native solutions using AWS or equivalent, containerized microservices, and modern software delivery practices.

• Experience building or leading development of AI-enabled systems, intelligent workflows, or agentic applications in production or near-production environments.

• Strong familiarity with modern AI engineering patterns such as agent orchestration, tool integration, retrieval-based systems, evaluation approaches, monitoring, or guardrails.

• Exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and system design skills, with a proven ability to lead teams through complex technical challenges.

• Strong communication and influence skills, with the ability to work effectively across engineering, product, and business stakeholders.

• Demonstrated commitment to engineering excellence through setting and upholding standards for automated testing, code reviews, observability, and continuous delivery.

• Results-oriented leader with a passion for mentoring others, fostering innovation, and operating effectively in a rapidly evolving technology landscape.

Preferred :
