[8SC] Senior AI Software Engineer

  • Full-time

Company Description

We are Software Mind, an awesome team of engineers who are ready to ramp up any top-notch company’s projects! Our aim? To always be one step ahead. Become part of a multicultural company in constant growth with an excellent work environment certified by Great Place To Work!

Job Description

We are seeking AI-Native Software Engineers to join a small, high-impact engineering pod supporting a senior technical lead and a client team.

This is not a traditional staff augmentation role. Engineers will operate in an R&D-style environment, working with ambiguity, rapidly prototyping solutions, and leveraging AI tools to accelerate engineering workflows and delivery.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Build and iterate on prototypes, internal tools, and engineering solutions
  • Use AI tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate coding, debugging, testing, and documentation
  • Contribute to CI/CD improvements, testing automation, and code quality initiatives
  • Help improve software development lifecycle (SDLC) workflows using AI
  • Collaborate directly with internal and client technical leads, contributing ideas and technical direction
  • Work effectively in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment without a fully defined backlog

Key Expectation:
Candidates must demonstrate real, day-to-day use of AI tools to accelerate engineering work.
Profiles that only list AI tools without practical application will not be considered.
