AI & Platform Software Engineer - Remote -Contract

Title : AI & Platform Software Engineer

Remote

Type: Contract

 

Job Description :

 

Responsibilities

• Design, build, test, and operate production capabilities hands-on, with documentation and evidence by default.
• Leverage GenAI capabilities in your own engineering workflow — coding assistants, agent-based automation, AI-assisted testing and debugging — to accelerate delivery, including SDLC automation opportunities.
• Work within the bank’s SDLC gates, security standards, and separation-of-duties model; produce the artifacts and evidence each gate requires.
• Partner across governance, architecture, cybersecurity, and application teams; communicate clearly with technical and business audiences.
• Pair for capability transfer — FTEs with contractor counterparts, contractors with FTE track owners — so knowledge stays when engagements end.
• Participate in support rotations for live workloads with incident triage and root-cause discipline.

 

Skills

Must have

• SE III (61 IC): Associate’s + 7 years or Bachelor’s + 5 years systems analysis/application development experience (or combined 9 years).
• SE II (60 IC): Associate’s + 5 years or Bachelor’s + 3 years equivalent experience (or combined 7 years).
• Strong software engineering fundamentals: architecture, API design, integration patterns, secure coding, testing, CI/CD, and operational support.
• Hands-on experience with GenAI models and AI-assisted development workflows (coding assistants, prompt engineering, RAG/context engineering, or agent-based automation).
• Hands-on Azure experience relevant to the target track (e.g., APIM, Entra ID, Key Vault, Azure AI services including Azure AI Foundry, Azure Monitor, IaC tooling) — current stack is Azure AI Foundry + APIM, with the platform designed to extend to additional venues and tools (e.g., AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex, direct provider APIs) without rework.
• Experience delivering and operating production systems in a controlled-change environment.
• Strong communication, collaboration, documentation, and stakeholder engagement skills.

 

Nice to have

• Demonstrated depth in one or more tracks above — candidates are routed by strongest track fit across both organizations.
• Financial services or other highly regulated industry experience; familiarity with audit-evidence expectations.
• Experience with GitLab Duo, Azure AI Foundry, Copilot Studio, Dynatrace, Delphix, or comparable track-relevant tooling.
• Certifications or demonstrated training in cloud engineering, AI engineering, DevOps, SRE, or related disciplines.
