Job Description
We're building the AI Engineering team at AGS from the ground up—and we need a technical anchor in India to make it work. As Lead AI Solutions Engineer, you'll own day-to-day technical decisions, mentor engineers, and drive projects from concept to production. You're the Head of AI Engineering's counterpart for delivery execution. While leadership in North America sets architecture and strategy, you'll translate that into working software and guide the team through implementation. This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You'll write code, review code, architect solutions, and make other engineers better. You'll have real authority over technical decisions and full accountability for delivery outcomes.
If you want to lead technically without becoming a full-time people manager, this is your role.
Key Responsibilities:
Technical Leadership
- Own day-to-day technical decisions for the India engineering team
- Lead design and architecture for agents, automations, and Foundation Layer capabilities
- Drive technical direction in partnership with the Head of AI Engineering
- Make build-vs-buy and technology selection recommendations
- Establish patterns, standards, and reference implementations the team will follow
Hands-On Delivery
- Design and build intelligent agents, conversational interfaces, and agentic workflows
- Develop Foundation Layer services—reusable AI capabilities exposed as REST APIs and MCP servers
- Create integrations between AI capabilities and enterprise systems
- Troubleshoot complex issues across the full stack
Team Development
- Mentor engineers through pairing, code review, and coaching
- Conduct technical interviews and help grow the team
- Set quality expectations and hold the team to them
- Build a culture of ownership where every engineer can deliver end-to-end
Stakeholder Collaboration
- Translate business requirements into technical solutions
- Provide estimates and communicate trade-offs clearly
- Partner with QA and Analysts to ensure quality and completeness
- Represent engineering in cross-functional discussions
Qualifications
Required
- 5-8 years of software engineering experience with demonstrated technical leadership
- Strong programming fundamentals in Python and/or TypeScript
- Experience building AI/ML applications, conversational interfaces, or intelligent automation
- Solid understanding of API design, integration patterns, and cloud platforms
- Track record of mentoring other engineers and raising team capability
- Ability to operate independently with minimal direction
Preferred
- Experience with Microsoft Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Copilot Studio)
- Background in Azure AI services, OpenAI APIs, or similar LLM platforms
- Understanding of prompt engineering, RAG patterns, and LLM application design
- Experience in staffing, HR tech, or workforce management
- Familiarity with agile delivery in distributed team environments
Technology Stack
- Languages: Python, TypeScript
- Platforms: Azure (Container Apps, Functions, AI Services), Microsoft 365
- Agent Development: Copilot Studio, Power Automate, custom orchestration
- Data: REST APIs, Dataverse, SQL, Snowflake
- AI/ML: Large Language Models, prompt engineering, RAG patterns, MCP
- Tools: Git, Azure DevOps, CI/CD pipelines
We don't expect expertise in everything. We expect strong fundamentals and the ability to learn quickly.
