Sr Staff Gen AI Application Engineer
About the role
This position provides IT engineering for the rapid, scalable, and compliant delivery of enterprise software applications and foundational workflows. The hallmark of our team is our ability to build next-generation applications by leveraging agentic AI development tooling using Claude Code to execute against three core pillars: modernizing our legacy portfolio capabilities by engineering new, operationally stable software alternatives; informing SaaS "make vs. buy" decisions at scale by rapidly prototyping bespoke solutions; and driving enterprise upskilling by establishing blueprint patterns for AI-assisted application development. These efforts allow for significant operational efficiency and consumption-focused innovation across GE Aerospace, as well as provide for improved, cutting-edge software services to our global workforce and customers.
