AI-First Software Engineer II   $60,000 USD/year

Description

You’re an engineer who doesn’t tolerate bad code, slow deployments, or outdated development practices. You don’t just write software—you build AI-driven systems that make traditional engineering look sluggish and inefficient. If that sounds like you, keep reading.

Most software teams are still writing code the old way—manual debugging, trial-and-error deployments, and features that barely leverage AI beyond a sprinkle of Copilot suggestions. Trilogy is different. Every part of our development process is infused with AI: feature ideation, bug detection, defect resolution, and performance optimization. This isn’t about dabbling in AI tools; this is about fully integrating AI into the software lifecycle to eliminate waste, ship faster, and build with precision.

In this role, you will take existing B2B products, break them down, rebuild them as cloud-native applications, and optimize them with AI at every level. You’ll be developing and deploying AI-powered features, using cutting-edge retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for automated defect detection, and ensuring every release is smooth—zero outages, zero disruptions, zero excuses. If you're looking for a job where you spend weeks debating architecture decisions instead of shipping, this isn’t it.

If you’re ready to push the boundaries of AI-driven software engineering and accelerate your career into high-scale cloud-native development, apply now. If you prefer sticking to what you already know, writing test cases by hand, or working in teams that are afraid of automation, this isn’t for you.

What you will be doing

  • Using analysis tools and RAG vector stores to identify, diagnose, and correct product defects and fix bugs.
  • Leveraging AI development agents to design, develop, and deploy innovative features for cloud-native applications.
  • Collaborating with a global team to deliver high-quality, enterprise-grade solutions.

What you will NOT be doing

  • Routine Monotony: We keep cumbersome infrastructure tasks to a minimum so you can focus on creating innovative solutions.
  • Endless Meetings: We value your expertise in development over sitting in meeting rooms. Expect more coding, less talking.

Key responsibilities

  • Implement AI-driven features to streamline workflows and empower service providers with innovative tools.

Candidate requirements

  • AI-First Mindset (if your instinct is to write code first and then use AI tools to verify or enhance your code, rather than the other way around, then please do not apply)
  • 4+ years of experience in software development, focusing on production code for server-side web applications
  • Professional experience developing highly reliable B2B software applications
  • Hands-on experience with cloud-native development or serverless architectures, specifically using AWS
  • Professional experience using GenAI code assistants (e.g., Github Copilot, Cursor.sh, v0.dev)
  • Experience successfully implementing Generative AI solutions, resulting in substantial quantitative impact
