As a Senior AI Software Engineer, you'll transform business ideas into production-ready applications using cutting-edge AI design tools and modern full-stack frameworks. With a strong bias toward frontend development, you specialize in the critical early stages—from concept through pre-totype to prototype—where design systems meet AI-augmented development. You are a visionary technologist who sits at the intersection of engineering excellence and AI innovation. Your mission is to oversee the entire "concept-to-production" pipeline, ensuring our teams leverage cutting-edge AI tools to deliver enterprise-grade applications at unprecedented speeds.

While you maintain a deep technical foundation in full-stack development, your primary focus is strategic leadership: defining design system standards, optimizing AI-augmented workflows, and mentoring a high-performance team of developers and AI builders.

Key Responsibilities

• Strategic AI Integration: Direct the adoption of AI design tools (v0.dev, bolt.new, Lovable) to compress the development lifecycle from weeks to days without sacrificing quality.
• Architecture & Standards: Define and enforce the technical standards for production-ready full-stack applications, ensuring scalability, performance, and accessibility across all projects.
• Design-Dev Synthesis: Lead the integration of Figma-based design systems with AI-driven development to create seamless, automated handoff processes.
• Operational Excellence: Manage a ticket-driven workflow in Jira, optimizing team velocity and ensuring technical documentation meets enterprise-level requirements.
• Cross-Functional Partnership: Act as a bridge between Strategy, Creative, and Technology departments to ensure AI-powered solutions meet complex business objectives.
