You’ll join an Enterprise AI Enablement team building AI-native solutions designed to improve customer experiences and empower internal teams through practical, production-ready AI.

• RAG-based solutions and data stores

• LLM and Gemini API integrations

• Agents, MCP servers, connectors and CLIs

• Prompt and context engineering

• CI/CD, containerised deployments and LLMOps

• End-to-end ownership across architecture, development, testing and production

What we’re looking for:

• 7+ years’ software engineering experience within Agile / DevOps environments

• Strong Python experience, with TypeScript exposure highly regarded

• Experience building scalable, production-grade backend systems

• Experience across the full SDLC, including design, build, test and production support

• Strong understanding of CI/CD, Docker, Kubernetes and cloud environments

• Exposure to RAG, MCP, Vertex AI, Google ADK, LangChain, LangGraph or LlamaIndex

• Understanding of LLMOps practices across experimentation, deployment and monitoring

You’ll be working at the forefront of enterprise GenAI adoption, helping deliver both customer-facing AI products and internal productivity solutions.
