Full Job Description
About the Role

As an AI Software & Data Engineer, you will design and build full-stack software systems, data platforms, and AI-powered MVPs for TechTorch clients.

This role is ideal for someone who started in software engineering, developed strong full-stack capabilities, moved into data engineering and analytics, and now applies AI tools and techniques to solve real enterprise problems.

You will work end-to-end - from React/Next.js frontends, through backend development in Python and data pipelines, to AI model integration and deployment - owning solutions from concept through production.

What You'll Do

Full-Stack Software Engineering
  • Design and build full-stack applications, including:
  • Frontend interfaces using React and Next.js
  • Backend services and APIs using Python and cloud-native patterns
  • Develop secure, scalable application logic that integrates with data platforms and enterprise systems
  • Implement CI/CD pipelines, testing, and production-readiness standards
  • Collaborate closely with product, data, and AI teams to deliver cohesive user experiences

Data Engineering
  • Design, build, and maintain scalable data pipelines and ELT workflows
  • Model and manage data in modern data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery, lakehouse architectures)
  • Ensure data quality, performance, and lineage across structured and semi-structured data
  • Enable analytics, reporting, and downstream AI use cases through well-designed data foundations

Applied AI & Prototyping
  • Build AI prototypes and MVPs end-to-end for clients - from data ingestion to user-facing experience
  • Integrate AI/ML capabilities into software and data workflows (e.g., NLP, document intelligence, classification, anomaly detection)
  • Leverage modern AI platforms and services such as AWS Bedrock, SageMaker, Snowflake Cortex, OpenAI
  • Support feature engineering, inference pipelines, and AI-enabled automation
  • Ensure AI solutions are observable, explainable, and suitable for enterprise and regulated environments


Who You Are

We're looking for high-caliber professionals who meet the minimum requirements for the role and share our values and mindset.
  • 5+ years of experience across full-stack software engineering and data engineering
  • Strong foundation in custom software development, including:
  • Frontend: React, Next.js
  • Backend: Python, strong API and service design
  • Solid hands-on experience with data engineering: pipelines, modeling, warehouses, ELT/ETL
  • Practical experience building and deploying AI-powered prototypes or MVPs, not just experimentation
  • Proficient in Python, SQL, and modern cloud-native development practices
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred; Azure or GCP acceptable)
  • Comfortable operating across software, data, and AI - able to wear multiple hats
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to translate business needs into technical solutions
  • Consulting or client-facing experience is a strong plus

Nice to have
  • Snowflake (including Cortex AI), dbt, Airflow, Spark
  • AWS services: Lambda, Step Functions, Bedrock, SageMaker
  • Exposure to MLOps, model lifecycle management, or AI governance
  • Experience in regulated or data-sensitive environments


What We Offer
  • A role at the intersection of full-stack software, data engineering, and applied AI
  • Ownership of end-to-end AI prototypes and production systems
  • High-impact projects with private equity firms and their portfolio companies
  • A global, senior team focused on delivery excellence
  • Flexible, remote-first working environment with high autonomy
