Full-Stack Applied AI Engineer

The Role

We are looking for a Senior Full-Stack AI Engineer who can own delivery, not just execute tickets. This role is for someone who:

• Can take ambiguous requirements and turn them into working systems
• Is comfortable being the most senior engineer on a stream
• Moves fast without sacrificing production quality
• Has shipped real AI features—not demos

What You'll Do

You'll work closely with a VBT strategist and other senior engineers to design, build, and harden AI-enabled products for real clients. This is hands-on delivery work. No ivory-tower architecture. No babysitting juniors. You build, decide, and ship.

• Own end-to-end delivery: Design and build full-stack features from UI to backend to deployment.
• Ship real AI systems: Implement RAG, tool-calling, agent workflows, structured prompting, evals, and guardrails.
• Move fast, responsibly: Prototype quickly, then harden for security, reliability, and cost control.
• Use AI as a force multiplier: Work fluently with tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, or Copilot to accelerate delivery while maintaining code quality.
• Make technical calls: Choose patterns, trade-offs, and scope boundaries without waiting for permission.
• Collaborate tightly: Work directly with strategists, clients, and other senior engineers to unblock progress.
• Light DevOps ownership: Configure environments, CI/CD, secrets, and deployments (with support when complexity grows).

What You'll Bring

• 6+ years building production software across front-end and back-end.
• Hands-on Gen-AI experience in real products (not just experiments).
• Strong command of JavaScript/TypeScript.
• Proven experience with modern stacks such as:
• React/Next.js
• Node.js (Nest, Express, or similar)
• SQL databases (Postgres), caches, and vector stores.
• Comfortable designing secure, production-grade systems: auth (RBAC), secrets, auditability, PII-aware data handling.
• Cloud experience (AWS, GCP, Azure, or Vercel) and CI/CD fundamentals.
• Clear communicator who can explain trade-offs to non-engineers.
• Comfortable working embedded with a client team.

Nice to Have

• Experience in retail, hospitality, logistics, healthcare, or regulated environments.
• Prior consulting or agency delivery experience.
