AI Software Engineer   $100,000 USD/year

Description

Ready to revolutionize the future of software development? At IgniteTech, we're not just keeping pace with the AI revolution - we're leading it. In an industry where 30% of projects still miss their deadlines due to traditional development constraints, we're charting a bold new course with cutting-edge GenAI technologies.

This isn't your typical software engineering role. As our AI Software Engineer, you'll be the architect of transformation, wielding the latest AI innovations to reshape how software is conceived, developed, and deployed. We're looking for a visionary who sees beyond conventional coding paradigms and is ready to pioneer the next generation of AI-powered development tools.

If you're energized by the prospect of conducting groundbreaking R&D, crafting revolutionary prototypes, and fundamentally changing how software is built, we want to talk to you. This strategic position puts you at the intersection of AI innovation and practical software development, where your decisions will ripple through the entire industry.

What you will be doing

Your mission will be twofold:

  • Pioneer the next generation of AI-driven development systems by architecting sophisticated automation frameworks that handle everything from initial system design to intelligent code generation and dependency orchestration.
  • Stay at the bleeding edge of technological advancement through intensive R&D, thought leadership in professional forums, and active participation in the global AI and software engineering community. Your radar will be constantly scanning for emerging AI breakthroughs that could transform our development landscape.

What you will NOT be doing

To be clear, this role transcends traditional development work. You won't be:

  • Stuck in the weeds of day-to-day code maintenance or basic debugging cycles
  • Writing conventional code or implementing standard features that don't leverage AI capabilities

Key responsibilities

Your core mission is to harness advanced engineering principles and AI innovation to:

  • Dramatically accelerate development velocity
  • Minimize human error through intelligent automation
  • Elevate code quality standards
  • Compress time-to-market metrics
  • Drive unprecedented levels of customer satisfaction through superior software delivery

Candidate requirements

The ideal candidate will bring:

  • A proven track record of 3+ years driving high-impact software engineering initiatives
  • Hands-on expertise with modern AI coding assistants including Github Copilot, Cursor.sh, and v0.dev
  • Demonstrated success in implementing Generative AI solutions that deliver real business value
  • Deep practical knowledge of various LLM platforms (GPT, Claude, Mistral) and their application in solving complex technical challenges
