Technical Lead, IgniteTech

Most companies still operate marketing and community engagement functions using legacy methods. They depend on large teams and aging tools to manually produce content, oversee discussions, and mine insights from fragmented interactions. Even with the rise of AI, deploying a simple automation typically takes weeks, and most initiatives remain stuck in perpetual "pilot" mode. The outcome is wasted potential, exhausted staff, and infrastructure that struggles to match the pace of today's business demands.

IgniteTech is dismantling this outdated model. We replace manual processes with self-optimizing, AI-driven systems that operate at 10x the scale and speed. Picture a marketing infrastructure that generates and publishes content in response to live trends, or a community system that synthesizes, moderates, and channels insights within seconds—all designed, launched, and refined by a compact team of AI-fluent engineers working in 24-hour cycles. We don't stop at prototypes; we deliver production tools that immediately redefine operational workflows.

This position is not for someone interested in managing Jira backlogs within a DevOps treadmill. You will not receive predefined specifications to implement. Instead, you will assume full ownership of intelligent systems that automate and advance our client operations. You will surface bottlenecks, design AI-centric solutions, deploy MVPs in less than a day, and mature them into robust production engines with measurable impact. If your goal is a sandbox for GenAI experimentation, look elsewhere. But if you intend to use GenAI as a strategic tool, this is where you belong.

You will join a small, high-caliber team reconstructing the operational blueprint of entire business functions with AI as the foundation. You will work directly with decision-makers, execute rapidly, and evaluate your contributions by tangible business results. If this environment aligns with your ambitions, apply now

What You Will Be Doing

• Design and deploy functional AI prototypes within 24 hours that instantly automate live business workflows
• Assume end-to-end ownership of AI solutions, spanning design, deployment, and monitoring, without dependencies or delays
• Sustain continuous automation throughout the organization by surfacing new opportunities and refining existing solutions to match shifting needs and emerging capabilities

Technical Lead Key Responsibilities

• Construct a fully reimagined, AI-driven ecosystem that converts manual marketing operations and community platforms into intelligent systems delivering 10x business impact

Basic Requirements

• AI-First Mindset (if your default approach is to write code first and then apply AI tools for verification or enhancement, rather than leading with AI, please do not apply)
• A minimum of 5 years of full-stack software engineering experience (you must possess both front-end and back-end development expertise)
• Professional experience embedding AI/LLMs (through APIs, prompt engineering, or automation) into production applications
• Proficiency with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and constructing scalable, distributed architectures
• Understanding of when and why to select specific LLM models for distinct use cases
• Demonstrated knowledge and prior implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP)
