Artificial Intelligence Engineer, IgniteTech (Remote) - $100,000/year USD

The software development sector is undergoing rapid transformation, fueled by the need to accelerate development timelines, minimize human error, and improve code quality. These improvements are essential because they directly impact faster product delivery and increased customer satisfaction. Historically, the average time for software deployment has been hindered by conventional coding methods, with approximately 30% of projects running over schedule due to inefficiencies and errors.

IgniteTech is spearheading this transformation by incorporating advanced GenAI technologies to reshape software architecture and development practices. Rather than focusing on incremental gains, this position provides the exciting opportunity to drive critical AI-powered initiatives. You will be positioned at the leading edge of AI integration, not merely to improve but to fundamentally transform software development processes and results, delivering substantial gains in efficiency and competitive advantage at a strategic level.

This position is tailored for individuals motivated to operate at the forefront of technology and innovation. It is not simply an operational or task-focused role; it is a strategic position involving substantial research and development, prototyping, and the deployment of AI in building next-generation software solutions. The ideal candidates are those who possess not only strong capabilities in AI and software architecture but also a visionary mindset for applying technology to drive business innovation.

In this capacity, you will guide our team in developing the architectural frameworks and strategies that embed AI into our software solutions. This role is central to our mission, and your contributions will directly affect the productivity and quality of our outputs. We encourage you to apply if you are committed to expanding the limits of technology and motivated to deliver measurable impact in the software industry.

What You Will Be Doing

• Architect the foundational frameworks for AI-powered systems that automate intricate elements of software development, including architecture generation, dependency management, and sophisticated predictive coding.
• Engage deeply with the latest advancements in AI and software engineering through R&D activities, conference participation, and collaboration with academic and professional networks. When emerging AI technologies are released, we must be among the earliest to understand and evaluate them.
  
  

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Routine Code Maintenance: Regularly updating or debugging existing software code to address minor issues or enhance functionality.
• Standard Software Development: Basic coding or software development activities that involve implementing straightforward features or functionalities without AI integration.
  
  

Artificial Intelligence Engineer Key Responsibilities

• Apply your engineering expertise to drive a substantial increase in development speed, reduction in human error, and improvement in code quality, resulting in faster time-to-market for software products and enhanced customer satisfaction.
  
  

Basic Requirements

• A minimum of 3 years of experience as a full-stack software developer (you must possess both front-end and back-end coding expertise)
• Experience using GenAI code assistants extensively (e.g., Github Copilot, Cursor.sh, v0.dev)
• Prior experience successfully implementing Generative AI products/projects/solutions/tools
• Prior experience leveraging different LLMs (e.g., GPT, Claude, Mistral) to solve business problems
• An understanding of when and why to select specific LLM models for different tasks
• Demonstrated understanding and prior application of the Model Context Protocol (MCP)
