Job Description
Role Summary
We have a capable engineering team working on a complex legacy-to-Python migration and multiple customer-facing platforms. We don''t need another developer — we need someone whose primary job is to make the entire team 3-5x faster by building AI-powered automation across every phase of the SDLC: requirements extraction, code generation, testing, defect analysis, and release. This person doesn''t just use AI — they architect AI-driven engineering workflows that multiply the output of every developer on the team.
Additional Skills & Qualifications
