Senior AI Engineer

As the leading end-to-end investment platform for single-family rental homes (SFR), our mission is to make real estate investing radically accessible, cost effective, and simple. We successfully merge our passion for helping investors build wealth through real estate with cutting edge technology that transforms the way they do it. We are looking for an experienced Senior AI Engineer to join our team. You will be a part of an AI Engineering team focused on GenAI infrastructure and applications. This team is responsible for delivering on Roofstocks GenAI strategy by providing infrastructure for other teams to use and building zero to one point solutions for others to adopt in their applications. You are expected to use software engineering best practices adapted to a non-deterministic technology, Generative AI, which will require flexibility while maintaining high standards of reliability. While our goals are clear, how we get there can be ambiguous with emerging technologies requiring you to be creative in your problem solving. This role reports to the AI Engineering Manager within the Data organization. Data is centralized within Roofstock and provides solutions for all of our applications and business to utilize. Responsibilities: Work with a distributed engineering team across multiple time zones/countries. Cultivate high standards for communication, ownership, and quality while executing asynchronously. Architect and implement innovative GenAI based solutions. Ensure tasks are transparent, organized, on schedule and expectations are managed. Partner with other technical leaders to refine and deliver on our GenAI strategy. Be a strong voice of clarity in a world of a growing startup, and help your colleagues function when faced with ambiguity. Stay updated on emerging technologies and industry best practices, driving continuous improvement in development processes. Conduct and facilitate code reviews to maintain high code quality and adherence to standards. About You: 8+ years building applications as an engineer. Bachelor's degree in computer science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience). Experience building AI applications, ideally GenAI based utilizing Agents, RAG and LLMs. Experience building applications using AWS infrastructure. Strong experience with Java, Python, distributed systems design (microservices), and data assets. Ability to understand, diagnose, and effectively articulate technical challenges and solutions. Deep understanding of Processes, and how to build and iterate within a high-performing team. Proficient with VCS (Git), CI/CD pipelines and Change Management (JIRA). Flexible to find ways to apply software best practices to non-deterministic solutions.

With a talented team of 600+ Roofsters, our collaborative, can-do culture is what fuels our growth. In 2022, we closed on our Series E, raising $240 million, and have offices in California, Texas, and New York as well as many remote opportunities. Our growth includes recent acquisitions of Stessa (financial and asset management software), RentPrep (tenant screening and placement service for landlords), and Mynd (property management platform for both Retail and Institutional investors).
