About the Role:

Our client, a leading financial institution, is seeking a skilled Senior Full Stack Software Engineer to join their Engineering Operations division.

Are you looking for a career move that allows you to take a strategic project from concept to completion? Join our client's team as a Full Stack Engineering Lead, where you'll explore Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs), applying these cutting-edge technologies to drive productivity and operational efficiencies on a large scale.

We are seeking an innovative engineering leader to join our clients Operations Engineering and Architecture team. This team is dedicated to shaping the future of operations technology by reducing process friction, errors, and manual effort. As a key player, you'll guide the technical direction of products and services, establish engineering best practices, and lead cultural change throughout the organization. You'll also have the opportunity to work with Generative AI technologies, embedding their capabilities into our systems through prompt engineering.

This position focuses on the most modern technology and engineering disciplines, including generative AI, cloud computing, security, modern app stacks (Golang, Gatekeeper), open source technologies, and the latest in the Kubernetes ecosystem.

If you are passionate about AI, LLMs, and love programming, this is the perfect opportunity to contribute to building scalable, robust solutions in a fast-paced environment.

Join their innovative team and be part of a groundbreaking project to leverage AI and LLMs to improve productivity and drive operational efficiencies. As a Full Stack Engineering Lead, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our clients technology and driving cultural change within the organization.

Key Responsibilities:

• Contribute to both, engineering and research.
• Take a product-focused approach and build solutions that are robust, scalable, and easy to use
• Work in a fast-paced environment tackling cutting-edge problems by constantly testing and learning
• Pair programming for our products, be lean in your approach and remove bureaucracy where you see it
• Deliver fast, iterating and pivot as you go, rather than defining the perfect solution upfront
• Develop foundational components and mature technology capabilities in AI and LLMs

Required Skills:

• Deep hands on knowledge of Kubernetes, developing backend platforms and engineering solutions that scale 
• Fluency in at least two programming language, with preference for Python, Javascript/Typescript, Golang
• Experience designing control and sandboxing systems for AI research
• Pytorch, TensorFlow experience
• Experience maintaining and/or contributing to bug bounty and responsible disclosure programs
• Understanding of language models and transformers
• Rich understanding of vector stores and search algorithms
• Large-scale ETL development
• Direct engineering experience of high performance, large-scale AI/ML systems
• Have experience supporting fast-paced startup engineering teams
• Have used LangChain and even contributed to the project.
• As Generative AI is a relatively new and growing space, as a result, we ask that you share with us a specific AI engineering projects on LLMs that you're proud of in your application. Ideally these projects should show off complex and clever architectures or a systematic evaluation of an LLM's behavior.
