Job description

At AnswerRocket, we build transformative AI solutions that drive measurable results for Fortune 2000 enterprises. For over a decade, we've helped industry leaders across sectors—from consumer goods and retail to healthcare and financial services—harness AI to achieve tangible business outcomes.

We’re looking for a Senior Software Architect to join the Max AI team, the group behind our GenAI and large-language-model platform that transforms how organizations interact with their data and make decisions every day. In this hands-on development role, you’ll design and build core features across the stack, mentor fellow engineers, and set the technical direction for a rapidly evolving product. With meaningful opportunities for future leadership, this role is ideal for someone who loves turning cutting-edge ideas into production software while elevating those around them.

What you'll do:

• Design and build high-quality, scalable solutions for enterprise businesses with a focus on transformation using GenAI.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to deliver Max AI, ensuring seamless user experiences that delight customers worldwide.
• Mentor team members by guiding them through design challenges, overcoming technical obstacles, and resolving bottlenecks to drive project progress.
• Contribute to a fast-paced, dynamic environment where clear direction isn't always available—your initiative and communication will be crucial.
• Engage with customers, executives from outside of engineering and other leaders from within the development team, providing key insights that drive product decisions.

What we're looking for:

• Great software developers. Our stack is TypeScript (React) using graphQL to call Java/Kotlin and Python services, accessing large language models and SQL databases, deployed using docker on any cloud.
• Effective communicators with the skills to articulate the detail and value of our solution architecture to external stakeholders.
• Proven ability to mentor and guide other team members, fostering their growth and development.
• A passion for innovation, and the drive to constantly improve your skills, our software, our culture and the products we build together.
• The ability to adapt and thrive in a rapidly changing environment.

What you’ll need:

• 5+ years experience building professional software with a track record of growth; background in data transformation/analytics or machine learning preferred.
• Full-stack expertise, ready to learn what you don’t know and teach us if you’re ahead.
• Experience in our tech stack (TypeScript/React, Java/Kotlin, Python, SQL, LLMs, GraphQL, Mongo).
