This is a hands-on role focused on applying modern AI capabilities in practical ways, not building or training foundational models from scratch. We're looking for someone who can turn AI into useful products, workflows, and internal capabilities that are secure, scalable, and ready for production while maintaining a .NET backgound. You'll fit right in if you're a hands-on engineer who enjoys turning emerging AI capabilities into practical, production-grade software. You're curious, collaborative, and comfortable working across experimentation, system design, and delivery. You know how to pair strong software fundamentals with modern AI tools to build secure, scalable solutions that solve real business problems. Key Responsibilities * Design and build AI-powered applications that use LLMs to improve user workflows, search, automation, and decision support. * Develop and optimize RAG-based solutions using enterprise data, embeddings, and vector search to enable relevant, context-aware experiences. * Integrate AI capabilities through AWS Bedrock or similar platforms, including prompt engineering, guardrails, and safety controls that improve quality and reliability. * Build conversational and agentic experiences that coordinate tools, functions, and multi-step reasoning, including MCP tools, functions, and server integrations. * Partner with product, architecture, and engineering teams to deliver scalable, maintainable AI systems and establish strong evaluation, observability, and monitoring practices. ## Related Videos - [API Design - Getting Started](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/33-api-design-getting-started) - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [Understanding Kubernetes in a visual way](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100085-understanding-kubernetes-in-a-visual-way) - [Hiring AI Native Talents](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100268-hiring-ai-native-talents) - [Rest API Antipatterns](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100208-rest-api-antipatterns) - [Nest.js - TypeScript in the backend can also be clean](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1033-nest-js-typescript-in-the-backend-can-also-be-clean) ## Related Articles - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [MLOps And AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/82-mlops-and-ai-driven-development) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [What Industries Outside of AI Are Hiring The Most AI Experts?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/98-what-industries-outside-of-ai-are-hiring-the-most-ai-experts) - [Coffee with Developers - Maria Apazoglou - Making AI understandable for all in production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/475-coffee-with-developers-maria-apazoglou-making-ai-understandable-for-all-in-production) - [Got AI ideas but no money?
