Job description

Our partner is a U.S.-based international bank expanding how artificial intelligence supports secure, regulated financial operations. As part of this initiative, they are adding an AI Developer to build backend AI solutions that automate workflows and connect intelligent agents with existing enterprise systems.

You’ll work primarily in Python, developing AI agents, RAG-based solutions, and workflow integrations that interact with APIs, databases, and business platforms. This is software engineering first, with AI applied to real operational problems rather than experimental research.

The environment is highly regulated, so successful solutions must balance functionality with security, governance, reliability, and compliance. It’s a strong fit for an engineer who enjoys figuring things out, building practical systems, and growing deeper into production AI development.

• BS in Computer Science, Information Technology, Software Engineering, or equivalent experience/field
• Strong software engineering background with hands-on Python development
• Proven work building or supporting backend applications, services, or workflow-driven systems
• Hands-on exposure to AI agents, LLM applications, or production AI solutions
• Familiarity integrating applications with APIs, databases, and enterprise systems
• Background working within regulated, compliance-driven, or data-sensitive environments
• Exposure to cloud-based application development

Skills and Strengths:

• Python
• AI Agent Development
• Retrieval Augmented Generation
• API Integration
• Workflow Automation
• Database Integration
• Software Architecture
• Tool Calling
• Agent Orchestration
• Prompt Engineering
• REST APIs
• Application Security
• AI Governance
• Regulatory Compliance

Primary Job Responsibilities:
