Responsibilities
- Design, build, test, and implement AI-enabled workflows and tools, moving from proofs of concept to full production and adoption based on user feedback.
- Rapidly prototype using LLMs, APIs, and automation frameworks — and move validated ideas into secure, scalable production systems.
- Integrate AI capabilities into our ecosystem (Workday, Greenhouse, Slack, Snowflake, Jira, Google Workspace, and more).
- Partner directly with stakeholders like People Analytics, HRBPs, IT, Legal, and Security to ensure solutions are usable, compliant, and follow responsible AI practices.
- Evaluate AI tools and vendors through hands-on experimentation.
- Enable the broader People team to adopt AI effectively and responsibly.
Requirements
- 3-5 years of experience in software engineering, systems engineering, or advanced automation.
- Proven ability to build and integrate LLM-powered features or intelligent agents into production, utilizing leading Frontier models (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini) and hands-on experience with coding agents/CLIs (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor).
- Strong API integration and workflow automation experience, using tools such as n8n, Zapier, or Workato.
- Comfortable operating independently in a fast-moving, low-structure environment.
- Able to translate complex technical systems into clear, practical solutions for business stakeholders.
- Skilled at using qualitative data to guide decisions, measure effectiveness, and iterate.
- Thoughtful about privacy, governance, and responsible AI practices — especially in sensitive HR contexts.
Nice to Have
- Familiarity with HR systems (Workday, Greenhouse, or similar) preferred.
- Demonstrated ability to use AI coding tools in day-to-day workflows and validate, critique, and refine AI-generated output.
- You’re motivated to push the boundaries of how AI can improve software engineering best practices and contribute to building AI-enabled products.
