Senior AI Software Engineer - Hybrid (Poland)

Jeppesen ForeFlight; Województwo pomorskie; Hybrid; PLN 180,000 - 240,000; Full time

Job summary

Jeppesen ForeFlight is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to advance modernization of aviation products. You will join a small, cross-functional team and own significant parts of the delivery lifecycle—from clarifying problems to implementation, testing, deployment, and operational stabilization.

Ideal candidates have broad software engineering experience, strong technical judgment, and comfort with AI-assisted development.

Qualifications

• Strong software-engineering skills in Python or another general-purpose programming language.
• Experience designing, delivering, and operating production software at scale.
• Experience using coding agents or AI-assisted development tools to deliver meaningful changes in real software systems.
• Ability to decompose ambiguous work into clear, bounded tasks with sufficient context, constraints, and acceptance criteria for both humans and AI agents.
• Ability to critically evaluate and improve AI-generated designs and implementations rather than treating generated output as authoritative.
• Strong understanding of testing, CI/CD, observability, security, source control, maintainability, and production operations.
• Experience working in cloud environments and integrating with existing systems and architectures.
• Strong technical judgment, problem-solving ability, and written and verbal communication skills.
• Typically 6+ years of professional software-engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated ability.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, test, deploy, and operate software supporting aviation products and modernization initiatives, owning significant components and cross-cutting concerns.
• Translate ambiguous product outcomes into clear technical designs, interfaces, acceptance criteria, and well-scoped units of work for yourself and others.
• Use coding agents and other AI-assisted development tools throughout the software lifecycle, including codebase exploration, implementation, refactoring, migration, debugging, testing, and review.
• Decompose and structure work so that engineers and agents can execute effectively—parallelizing work when appropriate and integrating results into a coherent whole.
• Critically evaluate AI-generated solutions for correctness, architecture, security, maintainability, performance, and consistency with existing systems, and set the standard for how the team does the same.
• Establish appropriate verification for changes using automated testing, static analysis, security tooling, observability, end-to-end validation, and manual review.
• Integrate new capabilities with existing systems, workflows, and aviation data formats while actively managing compatibility and migration risk.
• Identify technical risks, dependencies, and tradeoffs early, drive decisions, and communicate them clearly to engineering and product stakeholders.
• Lead by example in code review and production support, and drive continuous improvement of both engineering and AI-assisted development practices.
• Mentor other engineers and help grow the team's effectiveness with agentic development workflows.
