Forward Deployment AI Engineer III

We are seeking a Forward Deployed AI Engineer to serve as an embedded technical expert building and deploying AI-enabled solutions across a global supply chain and sourcing organization. This role is approximately 70% coding and 30% stakeholder engagement, partnering directly with business operators, product owners, and subject matter experts to take use cases from requirements gathering through production deployment.

You will rapidly prototype using ontologies and AI, then scale proven patterns into robust production systems. You will design end-to-end workflows connecting ontology objects, data integrations, models, and applications, and own the technical execution of assigned sourcing and supply chain use cases.

What you’ll do

• Embed with business operators to translate ambiguous workflow problems into technical solutions
• Build, configure, test, and refine application functionality with product owners and end users
• Design workflows connecting ontology objects, data integrations, models, and applications
• Diagnose complex system behaviors across data pipelines, ontologies, and deployment environments
• Support user acceptance testing, production validation, and post-deployment issue resolution
• Document technical decisions, design logic, assumptions, and dependencies

• 1-2 years of intense software engineering experience with a proven track record as an expert-level individual contributor
• Proficiency in TypeScript, Node.js, React, Next.js, and Python
• Hands-on experience building with LLMs and AI agents in production systems
• Deep understanding of repository architecture and management
• Familiarity with the developer tools ecosystem - VSCode extensions, CLIs, third-party integrations
• Experience translating ambiguous business requirements into technical specifications and deployable solutions

Preferred

• Supply chain, sourcing, procurement, contract or invoice management, or compliance workflow experience
• Familiarity with Ariba, SAP, ERP platforms, or data warehouses
• Exposure to ontology design, object-oriented data modeling, or workflow automation
• Agile, sprint-based delivery environments
