Senior AI Developer
The client is looking for a Senior AI Developer to join a team building product information interfaces (Kafka + REST) and related tooling. A central component of the project is a system that leverages Generative AI (GenAI) to enhance and enrich product descriptions. While the contract is structured in 3-month increments due to procurement reasons, the goal is to find a long-term, permanent core team member.
Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain product data interfaces using Kafka and REST APIs.
- Build tools supporting product data workflows, including a GenAI-powered description enrichment system.

- Backend Tech Stack: Strong proficiency in Java and/or Kotlin.

- Data Streams & Pipelines: Proven track record of building data pipelines or working with data streams (Apache Kafka or similar).
- AI Tooling: Prior experience and a clear vision for AI-assisted coding practices.
- Soft Skills: Self-directed, accountable, and proactive. Ability to push tasks to completion independently.
Plusses
- GenAI Experience: Prior experience building systems powered by Generative AI.
- Frontend/Fullstack: Practical experience with TypeScript.
- Facilitation: Interest in occasionally facilitating retros, dailies, or team alignment sessions.
