Experience working in the retail domain is a must.
It's a client facing role.
About the Role:
We are working with a leading Midwest-based retail client to build next-generation, agent-driven digital commerce experiences. This is a high-visibility, fast-paced engagement where you will translate complex business intent into scalable, governed, production-ready systems across commerce, loyalty, inventory, pricing, and checkout.
You will be a core contributor on a small, agile team with an offshore presence, working closely with the client's engineering and product teams to deliver solutions. Ideation, creative problem-solving, and collaborative communication are as important as technical depth in this role.
Why this role:
• Work on AI-native systems that are shaping how a major retailer serves its customers
• Gain deep exposure to the full agentic stack — from tool design to evaluation and guardrails
• Operate at the intersection of engineering, product thinking, and client strategy
• Join a lean, talented team where your contributions are seen and your growth is real
What You'll Do
• Design and build agent-driven digital experiences spanning search, ontology, commerce, loyalty, inventory, pricing, and checkout.
• Architect and implement APIs and distributed systems that are performant, scalable, and maintainable..
• Leverage agentic AI frameworks, including MCP (Model Context Protocol) and tool calls, to build intelligent, context-aware systems.
• Drive vibe coding practices — refining and optimizing user stories to maximize the efficiency of AI-assisted development workflows.
• Translate business requirements into well-scoped, production-ready technical solutions on AWS infrastructure.
• Contribute to performance, scalability, and deployment best practices across the platform.
Required Qualifications
• 3-5 years of hands-on software engineering experience in production environments.
• Strong proficiency in Python, Node.js, React with experience building and maintaining applications.
• Familiarity with columnar databases, caching.
• Understanding of API design principles (REST) and distributed systems architecture.
• Working knowledge of agentic AI concepts — MCP, tool calls, and agent orchestration patterns.
• Demonstrated experience with vibe coding and the ability to refine requirement stories to optimize AI-assisted development.
• Familiarity with AWS services and cloud-native patterns (serverless, containers, event-driven architectures).
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable engaging directly with client stakeholders.
• Curious, collaborative, low-ego team player who thrives in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.
Travel:
TBD - remote ok but need to be on-site once a month for a week.
