● Write well designed, testable and efficient code
● Ensure designs are in compliance with specifications
● Prepare and produce releases of software components
● Support continuous improvements by investigating new technologies and alternatives and presenting them for architectural review AI / Intelligent Systems Responsibilities
● Integrate AI/LLM-based capabilities into backend systems (e.g., APIs, data pipelines, internal tools)
● Design reliable orchestration flows for AI components (prompt pipelines, tool usage, fallback logic)
● Implement observability for AI systems (latency, cost, error rates, unsafe outputs)
● Ensure proper governance: validation, policy enforcement, and safe handling of AIgenerated outputs
● Work with structured and unstructured data sources to support AI-driven features
● Collaborate on designing systems where AI is a component of a larger architecture, not a standalone solution
