Full Job Description
CMT is seeking a senior-level versatile Software Engineer to join our AI Native team. This team has a dual mandate: spreading efficient AI tool usage across the organization and building new AI-based tools for wider use.

The team works primarily with Product and Engineering teams, but also looks to grow efficient AI usage in other teams where needed (e.g. HR, Finance).

Assess the trade-offs between solutions in terms of complexity, cost, and other factors
Work with external vendors / trials as necessary (e.g. open-weights models)
Develop prototypes quickly and shop them to the appropriate audience
Productize the team's prototypes to the appropriate level such that they can be used across the company
