Main responsibilities

• Build full-stack applications and platform services across the OneMesh ecosystem using React, TypeScript, Node.js, and Python (FastAPI) - from data platform UIs and internal developer tools to AI-powered applications and operational dashboards
• Design and maintain robust APIs (REST and GraphQL) that enable internal teams to discover, manage, and interact with data and AI capabilities, integrating cleanly into broader Sanofi digital products
• Implement AI and GenAI application patterns including LLM APIs, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), agent orchestration, and evaluation frameworks, building reusable platform primitives that help other teams build faster and safer
• Deploy and operate cloud-native applications on OpenShift (Kubernetes) and AWS, following GitOps best practices and contributing to infrastructure-as-code using Terraform
• Champion production-readiness and observability by implementing security controls, audit logging, health checks, metrics dashboards, and alerting to ensure platform services are reliable, debuggable, and operationally sound
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines to enable fast, reliable, and automated delivery, while contributing to code reviews, architectural discussions, and engineering standards
• Collaborate across cross-functional teams - partnering with data engineers, ML practitioners, product teams, and business stakeholders to translate platform capabilities into polished, user-friendly features

About you

• Mindset: Versatile and adaptable, with a strong ownership mentality and service-oriented approach; comfortable working across multiple products simultaneously and thriving in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
• Collaboration: Excellent communicator in English who can translate complex technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders and enjoys working across diverse, cross-functional teams
