Job summary

GlobalLogic seeks an experienced engineer to join product squads, delivering AI-native development initiatives and modernising CI/CD pipelines. You will embed with engineering teams, write and refine agentic tooling, and coach others in prompt-first practices and code reviews.

The role emphasises collaboration, transformation work, and contributing to a scalable, central platform strategy within a hybrid work model.

Qualifications

• Strong software engineering background with production experience in TypeScript, Python or Java.
• Hands-on experience with Claude Code (or equivalent tooling) writing custom skills and integrating AI tooling.
• Experience with AI-native development practices: prompt-first development, AI pair programming, agent-assisted code reviews.
• Understanding of CI/CD pipelines (GitLab) and modernising and improving existing setups.
• Experience embedded within engineering teams, not isolated delivery.
• Ability to coach engineers through pairing, demos and knowledge transfer.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and prioritising improvements in unfamiliar codebases.

Responsibilities

• Deploy into product squads as part of the discovery and landing phase — assess current state, contribute to the transformation backlog, and begin immediate delivery alongside the team.
• Drive tech debt reduction and pipeline modernisation within the engineering team’s production codebase during the early modernisation phase.
• Author and maintain AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md context files that capture product knowledge for LLM-assisted development.
• Inject centrally-published platform assets (agents, templates, CI/CD patterns) into live repositories during the rollout phase, ensuring they integrate cleanly with existing workflows.
• Build custom Claude Code (or equivalent agentic CLI tooling) skills and subagent architectures tailored to the squad’s domain — automating repetitive tasks, code generation, and review workflows.
• Coach squad engineers on AI-native delivery habits: prompt-first PRs, agent-assisted reviews, effective use of Claude Code (or equivalent agentic CLI tooling) in daily development.
• Feed learnings, patterns, and reusable assets back to the Central Platform Team for inclusion in the centrally-available components.

Job description

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong software engineering background with production experience in modern languages/frameworks (TypeScript, Python, Java, or similar)
• Hands-on experience with Claude Code (or equivalent agentic CLI tooling — Cursor, Codex CLI, Cline, Aider): writing custom skills, building subagents, configuring MCP servers, and integrating AI tooling into development workflows
• Demonstrable experience with AI-native development practices: prompt-first development, AI pair programming, agent-assisted code review
• Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines (GitLab), Git workflows, and platform tooling — able to modernise and improve existing setups
• Experience working embedded within engineering teams (not just isolated delivery)
• Ability to coach and upskill other engineers through pairing, demos, and knowledge transfer
• Comfortable with ambiguity — able to assess an unfamiliar codebase, identify improvement opportunities, and prioritise pragmatically

Desirable Skills & Experience

• Background in DevOps or platform engineering (infrastructure-as-code, container orchestration, observability)
• Familiarity with financial services engineering environments (regulated change processes, security constraints)
• Experience contributing to or maintaining internal developer platforms or golden path tooling
• Knowledge of software delivery metrics (DORA, cycle time, deployment frequency) and how to improve them
