Software Engineer

Conquer AI
Alameda, CA

Intelligence Architect

Conquer AI is hiring an Intelligence Architect to help us design and deliver real-world AI systems for enterprise clients.


This is not a research-only role, and it is not a strategy-only role.

We are looking for a strong software engineer who can work directly with clients, run technical discovery, shape use cases, and then build the solution from POC through MVP and Phase 1 delivery.


Think forward deployed engineer. A hands-on builder who can sit with business stakeholders, understand how work actually happens, and turn that into practical AI systems.


What we’re looking for

  • Strong software engineering background
  • Experience with RAG, LLMs, machine learning, and AI application development
  • Strong hands-on skills in Python and Node.js
  • Ability to design, build, and deploy production-ready systems
  • Confident working directly with clients and cross-functional stakeholders
  • Able to move from problem definition to technical architecture to delivery
  • Strong communication, ownership, and execution skills


What you’ll do

  • Work closely with clients to uncover high-value AI opportunities
  • Lead discovery sessions and translate business problems into technical solutions
  • Build POCs, MVPs, and early production systems
  • Design workflows that combine retrieval, reasoning, automation, and human-in-the-loop review
  • Operate as a trusted technical lead across both client-facing and delivery work
  • Help ensure what gets built is usable, scalable, and grounded in real workflows


This role is a fit for you if

  • You are a builder first
  • You can speak to executives, operators, and engineers without losing the thread
  • You enjoy solving messy workflow problems with elegant technical systems
  • You want to work on high-impact AI delivery, not internal experiments
  • We’d love to hear from engineers who want to build serious AI systems in the real world.
