You will act as a trusted advisor to teams across Galaxy, guiding them on best practices at the start of a prototype, and hands-on when it's time to harden and scale that prototype into a production application. You take end-to-end ownership of development, from application code through to the infrastructure, CI/CD, and deployment that runs it reliably in production, owning the software and infrastructure engineering that gets a product shipped and kept live., Product Engineering, Build * Need 7+ years of experience. * Design and build full stack AI-powered applications from scratch, consuming Galaxy's AI platform (AgentCore, Bedrock, SageMaker) as the underlying intelligence layer * Build responsive, production-quality frontends in React that deliver a great user experience for AI-driven features * Build robust, scalable backend services in Python that integrate with LLMs, agentic workflows, and enterprise data sources * Design and implement data layers using PostgreSQL, Databricks, and Redis as appropriate for the use case Prototype-to-Production * Partner with product and engineering teams to take existing AI prototypes and re-architect, harden, and scale them into production-ready applications * Identify and remediate gaps in security, scalability, reliability, and performance before go-live * Work within Galaxy's CI/CD pipelines using Kubernetes and Terraform to ensure applications are deployed, versioned, and scaled reliably * Implement automated testing and observability (logging, metrics, tracing, alerts) so applications are supportable in production Product Advisory & Best Practices * Act as the go-to advisor for teams starting new AI prototypes, providing early guidance on Galaxy's architectural and product best practices * Define and evangelize reusable patterns, templates, and starter kits for building on the AI platform * Review prototype architectures and provide clear, actionable recommendations to reduce rework later in the lifecycle * Bring a product mindset, balancing user needs, technical feasibility, and time-to-market when advising teams Collaboration & Enablement * Work closely with the AI Tech team to stay current on Bedrock platform capabilities and roadmap * Collaborate with business stakeholders to translate real-world problems into shippable AI product features * Mentor engineers across teams on full stack best practices for building AI-powered products ## Related Videos - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Reducing LLM Calls with Vector Search Patterns - Raphael De Lio (Redis)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1714-reducing-llm-calls-with-vector-search-patterns-raphael-de-lio-redis) - [Keeping applications secure by evolving OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100152-keeping-applications-secure-by-evolving-oauth-2-0-and-openid-connect) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) - [Inside Bitpanda's Tech Stack: Scaling a European Fintech Leader - Markus Dorner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1979-inside-bitpanda-s-tech-stack-scaling-a-european-fintech-leader-markus-dorner) ## Related Articles - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Jobs in Tech: The State of the European Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/575-jobs-in-tech-the-state-of-the-european-market)
