Position Summary:
We are seeking a skilled Mid-Level AI Engineer to help design, build, and deploy intelligent automation solutions across the mortgage lifecycle. In this role, you will implement AI-powered agents, contribute to process workflows using AI workflow tool(s), MCP, AWS Step Functions, and Lambda, and work across a multi-cloud AI stack (OpenAI, Anthropic, GCP, Microsoft Azure) — including tools like Devin — to build scalable, cloud-native automation systems. You'll work alongside a passionate team focused on transforming traditional processes into seamless, intelligent experiences.
Responsibilities:
AI Agent Development
-
Design, deliver, and deploy semi-autonomous agents (agentic workflows) that interact with internal systems and users across the mortgage value chain.
-
Build context-aware AI agents capable of handling document analysis, decision support, data extraction, and customer engagement.
-
Reverse engineer existing systems, workflows, and business logic to identify opportunities for AI-driven automation.
Workflow Orchestration & Integration
-
Build cloud-based process flows using AI workflow tool(s), MCP, AWS Step Functions, and Lambda, integrating AI components, APIs, and mortgage software platforms (e.g., LOS, CRM, POS).
-
Automate multistep business logic and exception handling with serverless functions, event-driven triggers, and low-code orchestration tools.
-
Contribute to modular workflow design that supports iteration, monitoring, and scaling of pipelines.
-
Leverage and integrate third-party AI solutions where they accelerate delivery or extend capabilities.
AI Implementation
-
Use OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), GCP, and Microsoft Azure AI services to build and deploy AI capabilities.
-
Use Devin and similar AI-assisted development tools to support day-to-day engineering work.
-
Integrate custom and pre-trained LLMs to support automation in mortgage underwriting — document classification, condition management, intelligent routing, and dynamic content generation.
Data Analysis
-
Perform data analysis on structured and unstructured mortgage data to support automation design and validate results.
Collaboration & Iteration
-
Partner with business SMEs, product managers, and data teams to map out automation targets and iterate on solutions.
-
Maintain documentation, participate in code reviews, and ensure compliance with data privacy and regulatory standards.
-
Apply "vibe coding" techniques — using AI coding assistants (e.g., Devin) to prototype and iterate quickly.
-
Stay current on developments in AI, LLMs, and the mortgage industry, and bring relevant ideas to the team.
Qualifications:
-
3–5 years of professional experience in AI application development, automation engineering, or full-stack cloud engineering.
Hands-on experience with:
- Agentic frameworks for building task-planning and decision-making agents.
-
Reverse engineering existing systems or processes to support automation design.
-
Leveraging and integrating third-party AI solutions into existing systems and workflows.
-
AI CLI-based development for interacting with LLMs and managing automation pipelines.
-
AI workflow tool(s) (e.g., low-code/no-code orchestration platforms), MCP, and AWS Step Functions.
-
OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), GCP, and Microsoft Azure AI/ML services.
-
AWS Lambda and serverless architecture.
-
Devin or similar AI-assisted coding tools.
-
Relevant AI/ML libraries (LangChain, Transformers, boto3/GCP/Azure SDKs, etc.), JavaScript, and Python.
-
RESTful APIs and cloud-native integrations.
-
Data analysis (SQL, pandas, or similar).
-
Comfortable with rapid, AI-assisted ("vibe coding") prototyping.
-
Interest in and awareness of ongoing changes in the AI/LLM space.
-
Familiarity with mortgage workflows or fintech automation is a plus.
