About the Role
We are hiring a Applied AI Engineer for a leading fintech company's AI Team to serve as the team's technical anchor in the United States.
You will lead two primary streams:
- AI Coding tooling and developer experience β bringing the engineering depth of Silicon Valley front-line teams (Claude Code, Cursor, Devin, Replit Agent, etc.) into ByLabs.
- AI application paradigm exploration and dogfooding β building small, frontier prototypes in internal scenarios that validate streaming UX, transparent agent steps, long-context memory, and other emerging patterns, and propagating them across the team through reference code, blog posts, and workshops.
This role is about craft and taste. You are not a platform architect, nor a BU project delivery engineer. You are the person who turns front-line Silicon Valley product engineering experience into multiplicative leverage for the entire AI Team.
Responsibilities
- Introduce AI Coding tooling best practices β Bring the engineering depth of Claude Code, Cursor, Devin, Replit Agent, and similar tools (Skills, hooks, subagents, long-context engineering, MCP integration) into ByLabs. Produce engineer onboarding playbooks and advanced-usage standards.
- Set the bar for the Skill Marketplace β Define Skill design conventions; personally deliver 5β10 reference-quality Skills as exemplars; raise team-wide Skill engineering quality through PR review.
- Prototype an AI-native engineering workflow β Reimagine the spec β design β implementation β review β testing β release β operations lifecycle around AI tools, producing a reference workflow APAC teams can adopt.
- Build internal AI application prototypes (employee-facing scenarios) β In OpenClaw, A2UI, role-bound AI assistants, and similar internal contexts, build small frontier prototypes that validate streaming UX, transparent agent steps, long-context memory, multi-agent collaboration, and other emerging patterns.
- Provide reference architecture code β When APAC teams face hard architectural choices in new AI scenarios, deliver runnable "this is how Silicon Valley does it" reference implementations β not documents, but working code.
- Cross-team craft propagation β One internal tech talk per month, one in-depth blog per quarter, and one onsite workshop in APAC per half year. Distill Silicon Valley AI application best practices into durable team assets.
- Architecture review participation β As the AI Team's anchor in the U.S., participate in ByLab's AI architecture review process and provide frontier perspective and taste-based feedback at the application layer.
