About the AI Guild

The AI Guild leads internal AI adoption at Juniper Square. We partner with teams across the company to identify high-impact opportunities, build the applications that solve them, and drive the adoption that turns AI capability into business outcomes.

About your role

We are hiring Forward Deployed AI Engineers to embed with business teams and lead the end-to-end delivery of internal applications, from discovery through production adoption. You will partner directly with stakeholders to scope the work, design the solution, build it, and see it through to active use.

This is an AI-first engineering role. The applications you build will be powered by modern AI, and you will use agentic coding tools as your primary development environment.

The role combines product management and full-stack engineering, and calls for someone who operates with high agency. Working from broad strategic priorities set by Juniper Square leadership, you will conduct discovery with stakeholders, define product requirements, sequence delivery, and make the trade-offs between scope, speed, and quality that get working software into users' hands quickly.

Success is measured by adoption and impact. You will own the products you build through launch and beyond, iterating based on real user feedback and contributing the patterns you develop back to the broader AI Guild.

What you'll do
  • Partner with business teams (Operations, Customer Success, Marketing, Finance, Legal, and others) to identify opportunities where AI can improve internal workflows and outcomes

  • Conduct discovery with stakeholders and translate business needs into clear product requirements and acceptance criteria

  • Carry each product through its full lifecycle, from prototyping and stakeholder validation through hardening, deployment, and rollout to production

  • Use agentic coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Augment as the primary development environment

  • Operate independently on standalone internal applications, and partner with central Engineering teams when work intersects with core systems or production platforms

  • Make engineering tradeoffs appropriate to an internal user base, balancing speed of delivery with reliability, security, and maintainability

  • Own deployed tools through adoption, including post-launch support, iteration based on user feedback, and ongoing maintenance

  • Produce documentation, conduct user training, and manage rollouts to drive adoption

  • Contribute reusable components, patterns, and learnings back to AI teams

Qualifications
  • 4+ years of professional experience shipping production software end to end, with hands-on experience building AI-enabled applications

  • Demonstrated ability to translate ambiguous business needs into product requirements and deliver working software against them

  • Full-stack engineering capability across data, services, and user interfaces

  • Proficiency with agentic coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Augment

  • Experience deploying and operating applications on a major cloud provider

  • Working knowledge of application security practices for systems handling sensitive company data

  • Strong product judgment, including the ability to define scope for an initial release, prioritize features, and determine completion criteria

  • Excellent written communication skills across requirements, specifications, documentation, and stakeholder updates

  • Proven ability to work directly with non-technical stakeholders and communicate technical concepts clearly

Compensation

Compensation for this position includes a base salary, equity, and a variety of benefits. The U.S. base salary range is $170,000 - $220,000 USD. Actual base salaries will be based on candidate-specific factors, including experience, skillset, and location, and local minimum pay requirements as applicable.

Benefits include:

  • Health, dental, and vision care for you and your family

  • Life insurance

  • Mental wellness coverage

  • Fertility and growing family support

  • Flex Time Off in addition to company-paid holidays

  • Paid family leave, medical leave, and bereavement leave policies

  • Retirement saving plans

  • Allowance to customize your work and technology setup at home

  • Annual professional development stipend

Your recruiter can provide additional details about compensation and benefits.

Fortunately, Calgary stands out as a hub for both, recognized as one of Startup Genome's Top 100 Emerging Ecosystems, while also playing host to a number of multinational enterprises.
