About the role

  • Define the scope of technical work related to deliverables and milestones of the engagement
  • Own the architectural direction of your workstream — making key technical decisions, documenting tradeoffs, and ensuring the team is building toward something coherent and maintainable
  • Responsible for code quality, architecture, and technical direction across the team
  • Write and review production code across the stack — your technical judgment sets the bar, and you're in the work alongside the team
  • Integrate AI and LLM capabilities into client applications — designing the architecture for agentic workflows, RAG pipelines, intelligent automation, and AI-augmented developer tooling, and guiding your team through implementation
  • Anticipate technical risk before it becomes delivery risk — surface issues early, define mitigation strategies, and communicate proactively
  • Participate in scoping discussions and SOW architecture for new and existing customers
  • Generate ideas, be willing to fail fast, and demonstrate with POCs
  • Drive knowledge sharing in and out of client engagements
  • Serve as the senior technical point of contact for your workstream — engaging directly with client engineering managers and directors on architecture, delivery strategy, and technical risk
  • Build trusted relationships with client technical leaders
  • Proactively identify opportunities to improve engineering practices and technical quality at the client, and drive that change
  • Participate in business development including client expansion conversations and SOW development
  • Responsible and accountable for the technical outcomes of your team
  • Write monthly feedback for all engineers on your workstream in collaboration with the Delivery Lead
  • Mentor engineers through real technical challenges — pairing on hard problems, reviewing architecture decisions, giving feedback that raises their game
  • Organize and break down complex work so the team can execute with clarity
  • Share responsibility for the morale and well-being of the Liatrio team on your engagement
