The Diligent One Platform gives practitioners, the C‑Suite and the board a consolidated view of their entire GRC practice so they can more effectively manage risk, build greater resilience and make better decisions, faster.

At Diligent, we're building the future with people who think boldly and move fast. Whether you're designing systems that leverage large language models or part of a team reimaging workflows with AI, you'll help us unlock entirely new ways of working and thinking. Curiosity is in our DNA, we look for individuals willing to ask the big questions and experiment fearlessly - those who embrace change not as a challenge, but as an opportunity. The future belongs to those who keep learning, and we are building it together. At Diligent, you’re not just building the future - you’re an agent of positive change, joining a global community on a mission to make an impact.

We are seeking a passionate and well‑rounded Fullstack Engineer to join Diligent’s AI Platform team. As part of this high‑impact group, you will help design, build, and deliver the core services that power Diligent’s AI‑driven capabilities across our global product suite.

In this role, you will contribute across the full stack — building robust backend services and intuitive frontend experiences that bring AI functionality into real‑world business workflows. You’ll work closely with AI engineers, product managers, and designers to translate advanced AI capabilities into practical, secure, and scalable solutions that empower organizations to make smarter, data‑driven decisions.

This position is ideal for an engineer who enjoys working across the stack, has a strong sense of product ownership, and is eager to grow their expertise in AI application development and modern engineering practices — including the use of AI tools to enhance productivity and innovation.

• Design and implement scalable, maintainable full‑stack solutions that integrate AI‑powered services into Diligent’s SaaS platform.
• Collaborate with AI engineers and researchers to develop and operationalize AI and LLM‑based capabilities in production systems.
• Leverage AI‑powered development tools (for example, AI‑assisted coding, test generation, and architecture exploration) to accelerate delivery and improve quality.
• Build reusable, modular components and APIs that promote performance and consistency across Diligent’s product ecosystem.
• Write secure, testable, and high‑quality code while contributing to continuous improvement of engineering standards.
• Participate in architectural discussions and design reviews to help shape the evolution of Diligent’s AI service infrastructure.
• Work closely with UX and product teams to deliver seamless, user‑centered experiences.
• Stay current with emerging AI and software development trends, identifying opportunities to apply new technologies responsibly and effectively.

Basic Qualifications:

• Experience building and deploying full‑stack web applications, including frontend and backend components.
• Solid understanding of software engineering principles, maintainable architecture, and best practices.
• Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively in cross‑functional agile teams.
• Experience with RESTful APIs, event‑driven design, and modular component development.
• Hands‑on experience using AI tools (such as code assistants, AI debuggers, or design copilots) to enhance software development speed, quality, and creativity.
• Strong communication and problem‑solving skills, with the ability to translate complex technical concepts into practical solutions.
• Passion for continuous learning and for exploring how AI can transform software engineering.

Nice to Have Qualifications:

• Experience working with cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Exposure to AI and LLM applications , including prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, or semantic search.
• Familiarity with infrastructure as code , CI/CD pipelines, and observability practices.
• Understanding of event‑based and distributed architectures

Educational Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, or a related field.

Soft Skills:

• Analytical and creative problem solver.
• Collaborative and team‑oriented with a growth mindset.
• Self‑motivated, curious, and adaptive to new technologies.
• Strong communicator who thrives in hybrid and distributed work environments.
