-  Assist with MCP development, Databricks workflows, and Databricks Genie Spaces use cases.
-  Partner with technical team members and business stakeholders to understand requirements and translate them into working solutions.
-  Help create user-friendly applications and interfaces for AI agents and tools.
Perform testing, debugging, documentation, troubleshooting, and post-deployment support.

-  Basic understanding of software development fundamentals such as debugging, testing, version control, documentation, and maintainable coding practices.
-  Ability to learn quickly and work with guidance from senior technical team members.
-  Strong communication and collaboration skills.
-  Advanced English communication skills.

What should we offer?

-  Opportunity to join a growing AI engineering team focused on practical enterprise AI solutions.
-  Exposure to modern AI technologies, LLM applications, agents, automation, chatbot/RAG solutions, and enterprise integrations.
-  A hybrid role based in Obispado, Monterrey, with most work expected to be remote and office presence as needed.
