About the role

We're looking for a web developer who is excited about building with AI. You'll join our development team to design, build, and support AI-powered applications, from assistants inside our custom-developed applications to automations that save our teams hours each week.

• Develop integrations, agents, and MCP connectors that link AI tools to SGI systems and data

• Build retrieval (RAG) solutions over SGI and client documents, keeping each client's data isolated

• Write, test, and version prompts and agent workflows; build evaluation sets to prove accuracy

• Monitor AI features in production for quality, cost, and performance

• Partner with departments to find high-value use cases and turn them into scoped projects

• Document designs, risk assessments, and validation evidence to meet GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, ISO 27001, and ISO/IEC 42001 requirements

• Support the AI Governance Committee with technical input on tools, risks, and controls

• Train and support colleagues as they adopt AI tools in their daily work

What you bring (required)

• 3+ years of professional web development experience

• Strong JavaScript/TypeScript and a modern front-end framework (React, Vue, or Angular)

• Back-end experience in Node.js, Python, or C#/.NET

• Experience building and consuming REST APIs

• Solid SQL and relational database skills

• Git, code reviews, and automated testing as everyday habits

• Hands-on experience with an LLM API (Anthropic, OpenAI, Bedrock, or similar), professionally or through personal projects

• Clear communication with non-technical colleagues

Nice to have

• Python for AI/data work

• RAG, vector databases, or embeddings experience

• Model Context Protocol (MCP), agent frameworks, or Claude/Claude Code tooling

• AWS experience (Bedrock, Lambda, S3, IAM)

• Work in a regulated industry (pharma, life sciences, healthcare, finance)

• Familiarity with IBM i / Db2 for i or legacy system integration

• A bachelor's degree in computer science or related field, or equivalent experience

You'll be a founding member of SGI's AI engineering capability, with real ownership, direct access to leadership, and room to grow into a senior AI engineering role as the program scales.
