Job description
AI Platform Lead
This job is half product, half engineering: you decide what the AI Platform should do, then design and own the shared platform that makes it work reliably.
You will be the first engineer dedicated to this platform. Nothing shared exists yet — you design it.
Hands-on architecture and building. This is not a management role.
What you will own
1. What each Virtual Agent should do
2. The platform architecture
3. Reliability
4. Making it easy to build on
Design reusable AI workflows for real business problems across product, content, growth, people and finance.
Make it straightforward for another engineer to add a new workflow, a new tool, a new Virtual
Agent or a different AI provider — without rebuilding the foundation.
Write the standards down, and be honest in writing about trade-offs.
5. Adoption
Review new Virtual Agent proposals so the fleet stays consistent and we do not solve the same problem twice.
Coach the team directly, so working with AI becomes normal here rather than exceptional.
Success is measured by teams working differently, not by tools installed.
Who we are looking for
Essential
Senior software engineering experience, typically 7+ years, including time as a lead or architect.
You have built AI agent or AI platform systems that ran in production under real load, and you can talk openly about what broke and what you changed.
Other engineers built on what you built. We are hiring a platform owner, not the author of one impressive agent.
Genuine product instinct. You start with the user and the job to be done, not with the architecture. You can frame a problem and write a short brief that a non-engineer understands and acts on.
Curiosity about other people's work. You are comfortable sitting with a recruiter, a designer or a marketer, watching how they actually work, and finding the problem worth solving. You do not need prior experience in those functions — you need the instinct to go and learn them.
Hands-on depth in modern AI systems: LLMs, agents, tool use, orchestration, retrieval, memory and evaluation.
Real judgement about reliability, cost, speed and scale in production, not only in prototypes.
You want to stay close to the code. This is a hands-on role.
Professional English, written and spoken.
Customer First — decisions grounded in data and real empathy for the user's problem, colleagues included.
Be on Stage — do what you say, speak up, give and take direct feedback, and deliver results rather than finish tasks.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Newbridge. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
