Our client is building sophisticated, enterprise-grade software platforms deployed directly into customer cloud environments — and they are looking for an experienced, battle-tested Software Engineer who knows how to harness AI without becoming dependent on it. This is not a “vibe coding” environment. They are seeking an engineer who uses AI as a high-leverage productivity tool while remaining the ultimate authority on architecture, correctness, security, scalability, and operational integrity.

You’ll join a high-calibre engineering team building complex, multi-tenant systems where quality, governance, and operational excellence are non-negotiable.

This role is ideal for a deeply technical engineer who enjoys ownership, autonomy, and solving hard infrastructure and systems problems at scale. You’ll own features end-to-end — from initial architecture through to deployment in customer cloud environments — while helping shape engineering standards across the platform. AI-assisted tooling is embraced as part of the development lifecycle, but always within a governed, human-led engineering culture.

Key Responsibilities

  • End-to-End Feature Ownership: Take ownership of features from design and implementation through to production deployment.
  • Use AI-assisted tooling to accelerate delivery while ensuring every output meets high standards for maintainability, security, and performance.
