The posting
key requirement, as the employer wrote it
You'll be a Full Stack Engineer who uses AI to build — and builds with AI.
Two things at once: you ship real applications faster by treating LLMs as a team of junior developers you manage, and you build the AI use cases themselves — agents, RAG pipelines, LLM-powered products that work at scale.
You'll work across the stack — cloud, backend, AI agents, frontend — and own what you build.
We're building the Universal Electric Vehicle at Ford, doing things differently.
Orchestrate agents to build.
Use AI as your default way of working — agents do the heavy lifting, you direct, review, and harden.
You set the bar for how the team builds with AI.
Build the AI use cases.
Design and ship AI-powered applications and agents — RAG pipelines, LLM integrations, agentic workflows.
Understand what's happening under the hood and make it work in production, at scale.
Ship cloud-native systems on GCP.
Design, deploy, operate.
You own the architecture, the infrastructure-as-code, and the CI/CD pipeline.
No throwing code over the wall.
Connect systems that don't want to be connected.
Build the integration layer across enterprise SaaS platforms.
Expect messy APIs, legacy constraints, and creative problem-solving.
Automate what shouldn't be manual.
If a human repeats it, you write the code — or point an agent at it — to stop it.
Make other engineers faster.
Build the tools, agent workflows, and guardrails that remove friction.
Developer productivity is a multiplier.
Python — deep.
You write production systems, not just scripts.
JavaScript / TypeScript — React, Node.js, or equivalent.
A real frontend and a real API.
Front-end strength is a big plus.
AI engineering — LLMs, embeddings, vector stores, RAG.
Comfortable building agents and evaluation pipelines.
Bonus for fine-tuning or eval work.
AI-assisted development — fluent with modern AI coding tools and agent workflows, and clear-eyed about where they help and where they don't.
GCP — Cloud Run, Cloud Functions, GKE, BigQuery, Cloud Storage.
Deployed and operated, not just tutorials.
Databases — relational and NoSQL.
You know when to use what, and why.
APIs & microservices — designed and built RESTful services at scale.
Git, IaC & CI/CD — Terraform, Cloud Build, or equivalent.
Reproducible, version-controlled infrastructure and disciplined code review.
BS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
MS is a plus, not a substitute for shipping software. 2+ years building and deploying full-stack applications in production. 2+ years on cloud-native platforms (GCP preferred).
Demonstrable experience building AI agents or applications — show us what you've built, not what you've read.
