The Role

You will join TrustFlight as an AI Software Engineer and serve as a core member of the AI Team. In this role, you will work closely within the team and cross-functionally across the organization to design, build, and deliver high-impact AI-powered software solutions.

This is an opportunity for a self-motivated, creative engineer who enjoys taking ideas from early exploration through technical planning, implementation, deployment, and iteration in production. The role is software engineering first, with a strong emphasis on applying AI thoughtfully and effectively to real business problems.

You will help build full-stack AI applications, backend services that provide AI capabilities to other products and users, and integrations that embed AI directly into existing applications and workflows. You will also help strengthen the AI Team’s engineering approaches, contribute to sound architectural and implementation decisions, and support AI understanding across the organization by sharing practical use cases, guidance, and best practices.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Drive the full lifecycle of AI/ML solutions, from research and prototyping through production deployment, evaluation, and monitoring.
  • Design and implement scalable, maintainable systems with strong software engineering fundamentals, using sound architecture, infrastructure, and design patterns.
  • Help shape the AI team's software engineering practices by contributing to technical direction, improving implementation approaches, and ensuring solutions are built in a reliable, maintainable, and scalable way.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to develop and optimize AI-powered product features and internal tools.
    • Build, orchestrate, and integrate LLM-based systems into production applications.
    • Apply AI patterns and frameworks such as RAG, skills, document extraction, and workflow orchestration where they are the right fit.
    • Refine AI use cases through prompt engineering, evaluation, guardrails, and orchestration strategies.
  • Assess where AI can streamline or improve existing processes, and identify cases where conventional software solutions are a better choice.
  • Support AI adoption across the organization by helping teams understand, use, and implement AI effectively in their day-to-day work.

What You’ll Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, Machine Learning, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 2–3+ years of professional experience shipping production software, with strong engineering fundamentals.
  • Strong proficiency in Python and JavaScript/TypeScript, with the ability to deliver full-stack changes across backend services, web applications, and Python-based systems.
  • Experience building and shipping production-quality software with attention to reliability, maintainability, testing, and performance.
  • Experience delivering AI features into production, including working with LLM APIs and building reliable AI workflows with considerations such as latency, streaming, retries, fallbacks, and error handling.
  • Strong understanding of the capabilities, trade-offs, and limitations of modern AI systems.
  • Clear communication, strong ownership, and the ability to operate effectively in a small team.
  • A growth mindset, with a willingness to learn, adapt, and continuously improve technical and product skills.

What Makes You Stand Out

  • Strong background in software development, with experience contributing across the product and engineering lifecycle.
  • Experience integrating and implementing AI features, automations, or products in a professional environment.
  • Comfort working with LLM provider SDKs, APIs, and common abstractions such as PydanticAI, LangChain, or LiteLLM.
  • Experience collaborating with cross-functional stakeholders to gather requirements and develop practical solutions.
  • Experience leading projects, mentoring teammates, or helping raise engineering standards.

$120K–$130K: Strong software engineering experience with solid applied AI experience, or stronger AI experience paired with solid software engineering fundamentals. Candidates can design, build, and ship production software that includes AI-powered features, applying sound judgment across reliability, maintainability, and user impact.

$130K–$145K: Proven ability to design, build, and deliver production-grade systems that combine strong software engineering fundamentals with applied AI expertise. Candidates demonstrate end-to-end ownership, sound architectural judgment, and practical depth across backend/application engineering and AI systems.

$145K–$160K: Senior-level ability to lead the design and delivery of production-grade AI-enabled systems. Candidates bring deeper expertise across both software engineering and AI, with the flexibility for one area to be especially strong while the other remains credible and production-ready. They can make robust technical decisions in regulated or safety-critical environments and mentor others.

Final compensation will reflect your experience, technical depth, and overall impact.
