Position Overview:

As a key member of our AI engineering team, the Generative AI Workflow Developer will design, build, deploy and maintain intelligent, multi-step workflows and conversational systems. You will combine expertise in large language models (LLMs), orchestration frameworks (such as n8n), cloud or hybrid infrastructure (primarily Azure) and emerging open-source AI tooling. You will collaborate cross-functionally to integrate AI-driven capabilities into enterprise applications and drive continuous improvement of deployed agents and systems.

 

Location:

Onsite in Melbourne, FL with hybrid schedule.

 

Your Day to Day as a Generative AI Developer: 

• Leads the design and implementation of autonomous, multi-step AI agents (workflows) that leverage LLMs + orchestration to automate complex business processes (e.g., research automation, document processing, data synthesis).
• Creates workflow automations using orchestration tools such as n8n (or equivalents), connecting APIs, event triggers, data sources, and AI models into end-to-end solutions.
• Develops, deploys and manages Generative AI solutions using both cloud and open-source ecosystems: e.g., Microsoft Azure services (Azure OpenAI Service, Azure AI Search / Cognitive Search, Azure Machine Learning, Azure Functions) and open-source frameworks (e.g., Ollama, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Hugging Face stacks).
• Contributes to the design and implementation of conversational AI systems (chatbots, virtual assistants) capable of business-task execution and user-interaction.
• Applies advanced prompt engineering, fine-tuning, RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) architectures and model-optimization techniques to ensure high performance, accuracy and reliability of deployed agents.
• Collaborates with data scientists, business analysts, product owners and engineering teams to integrate AI workflows into enterprise systems, aligning with business objectives and user needs.
• Establishes testing, monitoring, optimization and governance frameworks for AI agents — covering performance metrics, reliability, bias-mitigation, ethical AI compliance and scalability.
• Documents technical architecture, workflow designs, integration points, and operational support procedures; participates in knowledge sharing and best-practice establishment.
• Stays abreast of advances in generative AI, orchestration technologies, workflow automation and the open-source ecosystem; contribute to proof-of-concepts and innovation-driven pilots.

 

Required Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related discipline.
• At least 3 years of professional experience in software
