Sr. Product Software Engineer - AI

We're looking for a Senior Product Software Engineer - AI to join InnovateHub, our startup-within-the-enterprise that co-designs AI solutions with customers across Wolters Kluwer's Tax and Accounting product portfolio. You'll develop cutting-edge AI features that transform how accounting professionals work, focusing on real customer problems rather than technology-first solutions. 

InnovateHub operates with close collaboration between engineers, product managers, UX designers, and researchers. Engineers deeply understand business problems, product managers rapidly prototype ideas, and designers and researchers translate user needs into elegant, evidence-based solutions. We work in fast feedback cycles, obsess over customer value, and blur traditional role boundaries to focus on solving the right problems. We practice Agile and XP methodologies with weekly sprints, BDD/TDD practices, and pair programming with daily rotation to support high team cohesion and knowledge sharing. 

This role is ideal for someone who adapts quickly to new technologies, communicates effectively across teams, thrives in collaborative environments, and is passionate about human-centric AI solutions that deliver real value to professionals. 

Key Responsibilities: 

Customer-Centric Product Development: Co-design AI solutions with customers, focusing on real problems rather than technology-first approaches. Build human-centric AI features that deliver measurable value in fast feedback cycles. 

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate across engineering disciplines and product roles (product managers, designers, other engineers) within project domains, building AI solutions that integrate seamlessly with broader team efforts and customer value streams. 

Technical Contribution: Implement AI features using Python and modern frameworks, contributing to intelligent document processing, automated workflows, and AI-powered analytics within defined technical direction, with a focus on code quality, security, and product experience. 

Technical Advisory: Exercise independent judgment on technical design decisions within AI systems; serve as a collaborative resource for the pod on complex problem-solving, architectural trade-offs, and best practices. 

Close Collaboration: Work in InnovateHub's collaborative model where engineers understand business problems as deeply as technical solutions, partnering closely with product managers who prototype their own ideas. 

Communication Skills: Ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and drive adoption of new technologies across teams. 

Requirements: 

Technical Foundation:  

• 3+ years building software applications (experience with Python, JavaScript/TypeScript preferred) 

• Full-stack development capabilities 

• Experience with Agile/XP practices including TDD/BDD and pair programming 

• Proficiency with AI coding tools (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar)  

• Regular use of GenAI utilities (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) for development workflow 

• Exposure to or strong interest in AI/ML workflows, LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Azure AI), or AI frameworks (e.g., LangChain, Hugging Face)
