Job summary

Groundswell in Hawaii is seeking an engineer who can translate incompletely defined business needs into production-ready software, leveraging a strong technical approach and client-facing delivery.

You will refine requirements with stakeholders, design solutions, and move between client delivery, internal product work, rapid proofs of concept, and internal enablement while balancing AI capabilities with practical delivery.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in a technical field or equivalent demonstrated ability.
  • 1+ years of professional software development experience.
  • Hands-on experience integrating large language models and AI capabilities into applications.

Responsibilities

  • Take a defined technical approach and build it into production-quality functionality.
  • Participate in requirements discussions with business stakeholders to understand the workflow, business need, and desired outcome.
  • Contribute ideas and alternative approaches during solution design, including identifying opportunities to simplify the solution or reduce the AI component where appropriate.
  • Contribute to building complete applications that integrate AI capabilities with prompt and retrieval design, structured outputs, tool and function definitions, API integration, data handling, error handling, and user-facing functionality.
  • Build evaluation sets from real data, measure results against them, and report findings accurately, including results that do not support the chosen approach.
  • Investigate failures by identifying where a capability produced an incorrect result, characterizing the cause, and implementing a fix.
  • Support client demonstrations and proof-of-conceptions to help customers understand how AI can be applied to their business challenges.
  • Seek feedback, ask thoughtful questions, and continuously build your understanding of client needs and AI best practices.
  • Instrument and document your work, including logging, traceability, intended behavior, known limitations, validation method, and failure handling.
  • Move between client delivery, internal product work, rapid proofs of concept, and internal enablement as the work requires.
  • Raise blockers, unclear requirements, and results you do not trust early rather than working around them.
  • Contribute reusable patterns, prompts, and evaluation harnesses back to the team.
