This person will influence and execute the technical strategy for Responsible AI and roadmap for products, making decisions on technologies that are robust and scalable.

Your Mission

The Principal Software Engineer is responsible for developing and implementing artificial intelligence solutions to solve complex problems. This involves knowledge and familiarity with AI frameworks and platforms like Google Vertex, Hugging face, Microsoft Azure, PyTorch, Karas, Amazon Sagemaker etc. 

Development 

• The primary responsibilities include designing and implementing machine learning models and algorithms, analyzing data, developing and testing new AI systems. 
• Analyzing large amounts of complex data to identify patterns and trends and improve predictive capabilities. 
• Developing and testing algorithms and statistical models to enhance AI performance. 
• Designing and developing software applications, tools, and platforms that support AI systems. 
• Build quality directly into the engineering processes and solutions through automated testing and test-driven development. 

Collaboration 

• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to identify and solve complex problems. 
• Work with Product Owners to translate the roadmap features into management components/tasks, estimate timings and resources, suggest solutions, and identify possible risk.
• Lead and participate in the architectural design of features early in the development cycle.
• Support the team to ensure all committed stories for the sprint are completed per the sprint goal.

Code Review 

• Conduct peer reviews to improve code quality.
• Help junior developers follow development testing, exploratory testing, AI testing and/or test automation.

Support 

• Own your code in production, responding to incidents as they occur and participating in retros to determine how to be better in the future. 
• Work towards reducing total number of defects in the module/product to industry standards by catching and fixing issues early in development.
• Resolve all critical and high-priority security defects in-sprint, or by the guidelines set by the SecOps team.

Lead 

• Help build high-performing teams, grow and mentor the technical skills within the team and create development opportunities for them.
