About the Role

Seek has created a first-of-its-kind marketplace where builders and consumers of data apps come together to deliver real business impact fast. Insight Cloud isn't just another BI tool for internal data—it's a platform designed from the ground up for the secure exchange of comprehensive data solutions. 

We're hiring a Principal Software Engineer, Applied AI who will serve as a technical leader in bringing cutting-edge AI into production at scale. This role goes beyond coding features. You'll shape technical direction, set patterns for integrating AI into cloud-native applications, and mentor others to deliver robust, human-centered AI experiences. You'll work across the stack while also ensuring our AI capabilities (like conversational querying, guided workflows, and intelligent recommendations) are implemented with reliability, security, and long-term scalability. 

What you'll be doing

  • Build full stack features using React, Python, and modern APIs to deliver high-quality user experiences 

  • Design and extend backend services and APIs that integrate AI models and external AI services into the platform 

  • Create intuitive user workflows that incorporate AI (e.g., conversational data querying, assisted discovery, or guided analytics) 

  • Integrate with Snowflake and our semantic modeling layer to deliver seamless data-driven applications 

  • Define patterns and best practices for integrating LLMs and semantic modeling into data workflows 

  • Mentor and guide engineers, raising the bar on engineering craft, AI integration strategies, and system reliability 

  • Shape the app marketplace experience by advancing intelligent recommendations, AI-assisted publishing, and cross-app insights 

  • Ensure reliability at scale by driving observability, automated testing, CI/CD improvements, and performance tuning across AI-enabled systems 

  • Partner with product and design leadership to translate ambiguous AI opportunities into customer-ready features 

  • Evaluate and influence technology choices (agent frameworks, Snowflake integrations, orchestration layers) 

Qualifications

  • 9+ years of full stack development experience with strong proficiency in React and Python

  • Proven track record building and shipping production-grade web applications (SaaS or data platforms a plus)

  • Deep expertise in system architecture, distributed systems, and API design

  • Familiarity with AI/ML integration (using APIs, SDKs, or model endpoints) in production software

  • Strong ability to debug complex systems end-to-end across frontend, backend, and data layers

  • Demonstrated experience as a technical mentor or team lead driving engineering quality and scaling teams

  • Excellent communicator who can bridge technical and business perspectives in cross-functional teams

Preferred Experience

  • Hands-on experience integrating LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) or retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines into apps

  • Knowledge of agent frameworks or intelligent assistant patterns

  • Familiarity with Snowflake or other cloud data warehouses

  • Recognized as a go-to problem solver or thought leader in AI product integration or full stack engineering

  • Startup experience—comfortable moving quickly and wearing multiple hats
