Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Senior Software Engineer - Applied AI - **Company:** Ericsson - **Location:** Austin, TX, United States (Remote available) - **Experience:** Expert - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), Artificial Intelligence, Application Integration Architecture, Code Reuse, Continuous Integration, Programming Tools, Software Engineering, Systems Integration, Policy as Code, Large Language Models, Multi-Agent Systems - **Published:** September 20, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=8a63f3b8f29bf210 ## About the Role Strong software engineering fundamentals, including design, testing, maintainability, and operational ownership. Hands-on experience building or integrating AI- and LLM-based development tools. Experience designing or integrating APIs, developer tools, plugins, agents, or platform services. Practical fluency with CI/CD pipelines and modern software delivery practices. A security-minded engineering approach, including awareness of secure design, access control, data protection, and supply-chain or IP risks. Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work across teams and technical domains. A builder's mindset: practical, curious, outcome-oriented, and comfortable making sound decisions with incomplete information. Experience delivering software that is adopted and used in production-not only prototypes or proofs of concept., Developer-experience platforms, internal tooling, or engineering productivity systems. Code OSS, VS Code extensions, IDE integrations, or developer portals. AI marketplaces, model/tool registries, or agent frameworks. Software supply-chain security, IP governance, compliance automation, or policy-as-code. Platform engineering and infrastructure used across large engineering organizations. Taking an ambiguous problem from 0 to 1 and turning it into an adopted tool, standard, or service. What you can learn. You do not need to arrive with deep expertise in every part of AI governance, agentic development, telecom tooling, or intellectual-property management. The team can help you build domain knowledge in these areas. What matters most is your ability to learn quickly, engineer responsibly, collaborate effectively, and deliver solutions that work at organizational scale. This role is a strong fit for someone who enjoys building foundational infrastructure rather than isolated features. Designing standards, registries, and platforms that serve hundreds of developers. Solving ambiguous, cross-functional problems involving security, IP, reuse, and governance. Balancing developer velocity with safety, trust, and operational quality. Turning fast-moving AI experimentation into reliable, reusable engineering capabilities. Moving quickly from an initial idea to an MVP, then improving it through real-world adoption and feedback. ## Description As a Software Engineer on the AI Technology Governance and Foundation team, you will help shape the backbone of AI-assisted software development across the organization. You'll build production-grade platforms and guardrails used by hundreds of developers, including internal AI marketplaces, reusable tooling standards, intellectual-property protections, security integrations, and CI/CD governance. This is a hands-on, foundational engineering role for someone who enjoys turning ambiguous 0-to-1 problems into durable tools, standards, and platforms that teams can confidently adopt. What you'll do. Build and evolve foundational tooling for AI-assisted software development. Develop standards, registries, and reusable components that improve consistency and reduce duplicated effort. Contribute to AI marketplaces, including integrations for intellectual-property scanning, security, and governance. Integrate governance and compliance controls into CI/CD pipelines and developer workflows. Design and implement APIs, tools, and services that connect AI assistants, development environments, and internal platforms. Help build the next generation of agentic IDEs and Code OSS-based development experiences. Identify and close gaps related to software reuse, IP protection, security, and responsible AI adoption. Partner with developers, security teams, platform engineers, and technology leaders to turn organizational needs into practical engineering solutions. Take ownership of ambiguous requirements and drive solutions from concept and MVP through production adoption. Measure adoption, usability, reliability, and impact across the developer community., DISCLAIMER: The above statements are intended to describe the general nature and level of work being performed by employees in this position.
