Endless possibilities.</p></div><p>As an AI Solutions Engineer, you will join a highly motivated and experienced platform team supporting an enterprise AI assistant marketplace — Claude, Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot / Copilot Studio. This is a hands-on technical role focused on the platform layer: configuring and governing these tools, and evaluating the flood of connectors and integrations teams want to plug into them. You will work independently, partner with a technical lead and other engineering teams, and bridge colleagues from the low-code / agentic space into pro-code teams when needed. This is not a heads-down back-end role — strong cross-functional communication is essential.</p> <h4>KEY RESPONSIBILITIES</h4> <ul> <li>Evaluate third-party connectors, MCPs, and plugins for functionality and risk — deploy them in dev settings, test data flows and behavior, and report back with recommendations that feed the product roadmap.</li> <li>Configure and tune platform settings, controls, and restrictions across Claude, Gemini, and Copilot Studio.</li> <li>Build and implement custom MCPs and integrations.</li> <li>Build complex agents with multi-agent orchestration (Copilot Studio and Gemini).</li> <li>Provide platform-level troubleshooting and how-to support to colleagues, and coordinate with adjacent solution / forward-deploy teams.</li> </ul> <h4>QUALIFICATIONS</h4> <ul> <li>Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.</li> <li>6+ years of experience in software / platform engineering, with experience in the last two years including hands-on work with LLM-based or AI assistant platforms.</li> <li>Deep, hands-on expertise in one or more of: Claude, Google Gemini, and Copilot / Copilot Studio (specialists or combinations both welcome).</li> <li>Deep knowledge of platform configuration and settings.</li> <li>Experience implementing custom MCPs and integrations.</li> <li>Ability to assess connectors/plugins for functionality and security risk.</li> <li>Hands-on multi-agent orchestration experience (for Copilot Studio / Gemini).</li> <li>Solid software engineering fundamentals: version control (Git), testing, and CI/CD.</li> <li>Strong understanding of agile principles and methodologies.</li> <li>A genuine engineer who can also communicate clearly with technical peers and non-technical colleagues (scientists, finance, etc.).</li> <li>Able to work autonomously in a fast-moving, newly formed team.</li> </ul> <h4>NICE TO HAVE</h4> <ul> <li>Relevant vendor certifications – e.g., the Google Cloud Certified – Generative AI Leader certification, the Microsoft 365 Certified: Copilot and Agent Administration Fundamentals certification (Exam AB-900), and Anthropic’s Claude Certification Program (e.g., Claude Certified Developer or Claude Certified Architect) (or a comparable cloud architect certification).</li> <li>Prior enterprise / pharma platform experience.</li> </ul> <h4>WHO YOU ARE</h4> <ul> <li>You think about how to scale, automate and operate, not just how to build a solution to an immediate problem</li> <li>You understand lean thinking</li> <li>You set high standards for code quality, performance/scalability and security and seek continuous improvement</li&
