#HOT# Senior Systems Programmer / AI Engineer (Rolling Contract)

Location: Singapore Type: 12-month contract, renewable Style: Hybrid, with a highly flexible arrangement

Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced Senior Systems Programmer / AI Engineer to take technical ownership of complex, business-critical systems within a global technology organization.

This is a highly technical individual contributor role focused on AI-enabled engineering, large-scale software systems, evaluation infrastructure, system reliability and technical architecture.

The successful candidate will be expected to independently own technically complex problem spaces, make high-impact architectural decisions, build and operate production systems, and drive new technologies from experimentation through to hardened production.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the architecture, development and operation of complex production systems with organisation-wide impact
  • Define technical strategy and make independent engineering decisions across ambiguous and technically challenging problem spaces
  • Design and build AI evaluation, validation and experimentation infrastructure to assess the reliability, quality and safety of AI-generated outputs
  • Develop and operate LLM, RAG, multi-agent or AI-assisted engineering systems in production environments
  • Establish measurable quality gates, monitoring, experimentation and validation frameworks before AI systems are deployed
  • Apply systems thinking across multiple services and engineering boundaries, identifying and resolving issues beyond direct ownership
  • Drive scalability, performance, reliability and fault tolerance across distributed systems
  • Evaluate emerging AI and software engineering techniques and take them from research or prototype through proof of concept and production
  • Establish engineering standards around security, data protection, AI safety and production reliability
  • Mentor senior engineers and help develop technical ownership and engineering judgment across the organization
  • Produce technical documentation and architecture specifications detailed enough for other engineering teams to consume systems independently

Required Experience & Technical Skills

  • 10+ years of professional software engineering experience, including experience owning complex production systems
  • Demonstrated experience as a Senior Software Engineer, Staff Engineer or equivalent technical leadership position
  • Strong hands-on software engineering background with experience across backend, frontend, distributed systems or platform engineering
  • Proven production experience with AI/ML, LLM, NLP, RAG, fine-tuning or multi-agent systems
  • Practical experience designing AI evaluation, experimentation or validation frameworks, rather than only consuming third-party AI APIs
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, system architecture, scalability, observability and fault tolerance
  • Strong programming capability in one or more of Python, PostgreSQL, Java, TypeScript or equivalent production languages
  • Experience with modern cloud and data platforms such as AWS or Azure, together with technologies such as Kafka, Spark, Flink, distributed databases or equivalent
  • Experience designing and operating production systems through the full software lifecycle, including development, testing, deployment, monitoring and incident resolution
  • Strong understanding of software security, data privacy and responsible AI principles
  • Proven ability to make technical decisions where requirements are ambiguous and the consequences of failure are significant
  • Experience mentoring engineers and influencing technical direction beyond an individual's immediate area of ownership

Preferred Experience

The following would be highly advantageous:

  • Experience building LLM evaluation or AI quality-assurance infrastructure
  • Experience with fine-tuning, RAG, agentic systems, model evaluation or AI safety
  • Experience developing AI-assisted engineering or autonomous software engineering systems
  • Experience with PyTorch, HuggingFace Transformers, LangChain, MCP or comparable AI framework
  • Experience with large-scale data processing using Kafka, Spark, Flink or MapReduce
  • Experience designing cloud-native systems using AWS and/or Azure
  • Experience taking emerging technologies from research or experimentation into hardened production environments
  • Experience leading technical initiatives involving multiple engineering teams

What Makes This Role Different

This is not a conventional Senior Software Engineer position.

The successful candidate will be expected to own a technically difficult problem space end-to-end, rather than simply contribute code to an existing system.

You will have significant responsibility for:

AI Engineering × Distributed Systems × Technical Architecture × Evaluation Infrastructure × Production Reliability

The role offers the opportunity to work on technically challenging systems where engineering judgment, experimentation and long-term technical ownership are critical.

Please reach out to [email protected] with your updated resume and contact details. Incomplete applications may not be considered /Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
