Join us in shaping the future of aviation and making an impact through technology. The Role You will join TrustFlight as an AI Software Engineer and serve as a core member of the AI Team. In this role, you will work closely within the team and cross-functionally across the organization to design, build, and deliver high-impact AI-powered software solutions. This is an opportunity for a self-motivated, creative engineer who enjoys taking ideas from early exploration through technical planning, implementation, deployment, and iteration in production. The role is software engineering first, with a strong emphasis on applying AI thoughtfully and effectively to real business problems. You will help build full-stack AI applications, backend services that provide AI capabilities to other products and users, and integrations that embed AI directly into existing applications and workflows. You will also help strengthen the AI Team’s engineering approaches, contribute to sound architectural and implementation decisions, and support AI understanding across the organization by sharing practical use cases, guidance, and best practices. What you’ll be doing • Drive the full lifecycle of AI/ML solutions, from research and prototyping through production deployment, evaluation, and monitoring. • Design and implement scalable, maintainable systems with strong software engineering fundamentals, using sound architecture, infrastructure, and design patterns. • Help shape the AI team's software engineering practices by contributing to technical direction, improving implementation approaches, and ensuring solutions are built in a reliable, maintainable, and scalable way. • Collaborate cross-functionally to develop and optimize AI-powered product features and internal tools. • Build, orchestrate, and integrate LLM-based systems into production applications. • Apply AI patterns and frameworks such as RAG, skills, document extraction, and workflow orchestration where they are the right fit. • Refine AI use cases through prompt engineering, evaluation, guardrails, and orchestration strategies. • Assess where AI can streamline or improve existing processes, and identify cases where conventional software solutions are a better choice. • Support AI adoption across the organization by helping teams understand, use, and implement AI effectively in their day-to-day work. What you’ll bring • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, Machine Learning, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience. • 2–3+ years of professional experience shipping production software, wit
