Checkmarx; Braga; Presencial; EUR 85 000 - 110 000; Tempo integral

Resumo da oferta

Checkmarx is seeking a Senior AI Engineer to join our R&D teams building the AI-driven core of our product. You will design, build, and own LLM-powered pipelines and agent-based systems that find, triage, and remediate security risk at scale.

You will ground model behavior with retrieval strategies, evaluate models, and stay ahead of AI tooling trends. The role emphasizes cloud-native Go, collaboration in design discussions, and ensuring production reliability and observability of AI features.

Qualificações

• 5+ years of software engineering with hands-on LLMs and AI agents.
• Experience designing RAG pipelines and context/memory systems for LLM applications.
• Practical experience evaluating model and agent quality and using evals to guide decisions.
• A demonstrated habit of evaluating and comparing AI tools, models, or vendors, with informed opinions on tradeoffs.
• Experience with cloud AI services (AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Vertex AI).

Responsabilidades

• Design, build, and own LLM-powered pipelines and agent-based systems that find, triage, and remediate security risk in production, at scale
• Design retrieval and context strategies (RAG, tool use, memory) that ground model behavior in our product's data and domain
• Define and run evaluations for model/agent quality and use them to drive iteration and model selection
• Evaluate emerging AI tools, models, and frameworks against our product needs, producing clear build-vs-buy-vs-integrate recommendations for the team and leadership
• Stay ahead of the AI landscape: new LLM releases, agent architectures, orchestration frameworks, and techniques and translate relevant developments into concrete engineering proposals
• Own the reliability of AI features in production: guardrails, structured output validation, fallback behavior, and observability tuned for LLM-based systems
• Participate in design discussions and code reviews, bringing an AI-informed perspective to architecture decisions
