Senior AI Platform & Applications Engineer

Turn the Enterprise Growth AI Platform vision into a secure, reliable enterprise capability. You will partner with Growth community subject-matter experts to develop prototypes and refine selected concepts into enterprise-scale applications. You will shape the technical roadmap, work with designated architects to define solutions that align with enterprise architecture, build and operate the shared platform, and guide safe deployment. This is a hands-on individual-contributor role for someone who can move from strategy to production code and communicate clearly with engineers, business partners, and senior executives.

Workplace

Hybrid position based in Chantilly, Virginia. Regular onsite presence is required at least two days per week to support close collaboration with the Growth Systems & Analytics team and business stakeholders. Additional onsite presence may be required based on business, project, or customer needs.

What You'll Own

• Platform strategy and delivery. Translate the Growth Platform vision into a sequenced roadmap, investment options, measurable outcomes, and delivery plans, working with designated enterprise and solution architects to define the target architecture.
• Community prototyping and maturation. Work with Growth subject-matter experts to clarify business problems, develop and evaluate prototypes, and refine selected concepts into secure, supportable, enterprise-scale applications.
• AI-Driven Platform and application development. Build, test, deploy, document, and improve shared Python services, APIs, data and AI capabilities, developer tooling, and selected enterprise applications.
• Safe application onboarding. Assess applications developed by others against architectural patterns defined with architects and requirements for integration, dependencies, identity, security, data, reliability, observability, and support readiness before deployment.
• Platform operations. Monitor health, troubleshoot incidents, maintain operational procedures, manage technical debt and lifecycle needs, and improve the platform as demand grows.
• Technical standards and enablement. Create reusable patterns, reference implementations, automated delivery controls, and guidance that help other developers build and integrate applications effectively.
• Technical influence and storytelling. Explain choices, tradeoffs, risks, value, and progress in a way that enables decisions across technical, business, and executive audiences.

What You Won't Own

• Every prototype-to-production effort. The Growth community originates ideas, subject-matter experts remain essential through discovery and validation, and multiple team members continue to develop and mature applications that will live on the Growth Platform.
• Enterprise architecture ownership. You will contribute platform and application expertise and work with designated architects; architecture governance, standards ownership, and formal architectural approval remain with those roles.
• The primary relationship with Enterprise AI, IT, cybersecurity, or other enterprise organizations. You will provide technical analysis, support & recommendations as the technical lead; the Manager, Growth Systems & Analytics remains the primary interface.
• Unilateral deployment approval. You will make technical-readiness recommendations within the team's governance and prioritization process.

What Makes This Role Different

• You will help determine what the platform should become and turn that vision into measurable capability.
• You will work across strategy, prototyping, architecture collaboration, development, deployment, operations, and continuous improvement - not just implementation.
• You will build selected applications directly while making the shared platform safer and easier for other developers to use.
• Innovation is distributed: you will help subject-matter experts develop and evaluate prototypes, work with architects on enterprise alignment, and help the team refine selected concepts into deployable applications.
• You will join a high-performing team whose members combine technical depth, business judgment, collaboration, and executive-ready communication.
