The Role

Veeva Systems is the cloud software leader for the life sciences industry, building the platform that helps the world’s largest pharma and biotech companies bring treatments to patients faster. The Commercial Tools team is building the next generation of services tools that our global services teams rely on every day, and we're building them best-in-class on a genuinely modern stack.

What You’ll Do

• Build best-in-class AI features end to end — RAG pipelines, agentic workflows and LLM apps on AWS Bedrock and Bedrock Knowledge Bases, like our CRM Helper on ECS Fargate — and ship them to production fast
• Design and ship async Python services (FastAPI, SQLAlchemy 2 async, asyncpg on Postgres 17) that stream live job progress to users over WebSocket/SSE
• Build and own features in our React/TypeScript portal that global services teams rely on every single day
• Take real ownership from day one — features are yours from design through deploy, with mentorship from engineers who know the craft
• Move fast and keep it solid: own the tests, CI and observability that let a small team ship confidently every day
• Range across the whole stack — backend, frontend, cloud (AWS) and applied AI — and go as deep as your curiosity takes you

Learn the Veeva Vault and CRM platform APIs that power the life-sciences tools you’re building.

Requirements

• 2+ years building and shipping real production software — you’ve put your work in front of real users
• Strong Python with hands-on experience building async REST APIs, FastAPI ideal (SQLAlchemy 2 async / asyncpg / Postgres a plus)
• You’ve built at least one real agent or RAG application and understand embeddings, vector search, chunking, and prompting in practice
• Comfortable across the stack — happy to jump into a React/TypeScript frontend as well as backend services
• Working knowledge of SQL / PostgreSQL and confident with Git-based team workflows
• Foundational AWS — you’ve deployed something and understand IAM roles and containers (Docker)
• Genuine curiosity for AI and hunger to learn new tech fast — you want to build a career at the frontier of AI engineering
• Strong written and verbal English, and you thrive in a fast-moving, fully remote team

Nice to Have

• Exposure to AWS Bedrock and agent frameworks such as LangChain/LangGraphAsync Python and WebSocket/SSE streaming
• Frontend experience with React, TypeScript, Vite and MUI
• Infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or CloudFormation) and CI/CD pipelines
• Observability tooling such as CloudWatch, Grafana, or Prometheus
