  • Define and evolve the GenAI Globalization Framework to support multilingual, quality‑compliant GenAI experiences.
  • Partner with core teams to improve multilingual capability, correctness, safety, and global consistency.

Continuous Localization (CL) Platform Modernization & Stability

  • Support the modernization, stability, and scalable operation of the CL platform, including contributions to DevOps, monitoring, security, and operational reliability.
  • Develop CL workflows for LLM‑based development, supporting localization of system prompts and GenAI‑related UI content.

  • Solid understanding of GenAI feature and agent development, including relevant technologies, architectures, and system design
  • Hands‑on experience building or integrating GenAI‑powered services using LLM‑based workflows.
