GitHub Research Architecture Software Architecture Software Development Artificial Intelligence

Job Specifications

Traditional coding practices have historically slowed software deployment, with an estimated 30% of projects overrunning their timelines due to inefficiencies and errors. The software development industry is now undergoing rapid transformation, driven by the need to accelerate development cycles, minimize human error, and improve code quality. These improvements directly impact product time-to-market and customer satisfaction.

IgniteTech is at the forefront of this transformation, leveraging advanced GenAI technologies to fundamentally reshape software architecture and development. This position moves beyond incremental improvements and offers the opportunity to spearhead pivotal AI-driven initiatives. You will integrate AI to revolutionize—not merely enhance—software development processes and outcomes, driving efficiency and competitiveness at a strategic level.

This is a strategic role designed for professionals driven to operate at the cutting edge of technology and innovation. It is not a task-oriented or operational position; instead, it involves extensive research and development, prototyping, and the application of AI to build next-generation software solutions. We seek candidates who are not only proficient in AI and software architecture but also possess a visionary approach to leveraging technology for business innovation.

You will lead our team in defining the architectural frameworks and strategies that embed AI into our software solutions. Your work will be integral to our mission and will directly impact the productivity and quality of our deliverables. If you are passionate about pushing technological boundaries and eager to make a tangible impact in the software industry, we invite you to join us.

What You Will Be Doing

Architect overarching systems for AI-driven automation of complex software development tasks, including architecture generation, dependency management, and advanced predictive coding.
Engage deeply with the latest advancements in AI and software engineering through R&D initiatives, conference participation, and active involvement in academic and professional communities. We need to be among the first to know when new AI technologies emerge.

What You Won’t Be Doing

Routine Code Maintenance: Performing regular updates or debugging of existing software to address minor issues or enhance functionality.
Standard Software Development: Executing basic coding or software development tasks that implement straightforward features or functionalities without AI integration.

Artificial Intelligence Engineer Key Responsibilities

Apply your engineering expertise to achieve significant gains in development speed, reductions in human error, and improvements in code quality, driving faster time-to-market for software products and enhanced customer satisfaction.

Basic Requirements

A minimum of 3 years of experience as a full-stack software developer (front-end and back-end coding expertise required)
Extensive experience using GenAI code assistants (e.g., Github Copilot, Cursor.sh, v0.dev)
Proven track record of successfully implementing Generative AI products/projects/solutions/tools
Demonstrated experience leveraging multiple LLMs (e.g., GPT, Claude, Mistral) to address business problems
Understanding of when and why specific LLM models should be selected for different tasks
Demonstrated understanding and practical application of the Model Context Protocol (MCP)
