Your Impact
As an AI Enablement Engineer, you will help CivicPlus turn AI into practical, secure, and scalable solutions that improve productivity, quality, and decision-making across the business. You’ll partner across engineering, product, operations, and business teams to identify high-value opportunities, build AI-powered tools and workflows, and support adoption in a way that aligns with company standards, governance, and business goals.
Product needs AI-first workflow design across research synthesis, customer signal analysis, and feedback triage. The role operates in a security-conscious, GovRAMP-relevant environment.
What you'll do
- Design, build, and maintain AI-enabled tools, workflows, and internal automations that improve team efficiency and business outcomes.
- Partner with cross-functional stakeholders to identify high-value AI enablement use cases across product development, operations, support, and internal business functions.
- Develop integrations between AI services, internal systems, and third-party platforms using APIs, scripting, and automation frameworks.
- Translate business problems into scalable technical solutions, including prompts, orchestration logic, data pipelines, and supporting applications.
- Establish and follow best practices for responsible AI usage, including security, privacy, data handling, testing, monitoring, and documentation.
- Evaluate emerging AI tools, models, and platforms and recommend practical solutions aligned with CivicPlus needs and architecture.
- Collaborate with engineering and data teams to ensure reliable access to the data, services, and infrastructure needed to support AI-enabled solutions.
- Create and maintain documentation, technical standards, and reusable patterns that support sustainable AI adoption across teams.
- Troubleshoot and optimize existing AI automations and integrations to improve reliability, performance, cost-effectiveness, and user experience.
- Provide technical guidance, training, and enablement support to internal teams adopting AI-powered tools and workflows.
- Participate as a collaborative member of an Agile team and contribute to continuous improvement of engineering practices and delivery standards.
- Perform other duties as assigned.
- AI-augment product operations workflows: research synthesis, customer signal analysis, feedback triage, release support.
- Operate within GovRAMP and sensitive-data constraints from day one.
- Bridge product strategy to AI delivery; mid-to-senior business judgment expected.
- Coordinate with Engineering's own AI adoption (e.g., AI-assisted code review) without owning Engineering's tooling.
- Partner with Product Marketing and Customer Success Ops where workflows cross boundaries.
What we’re looking for
- Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, information systems, or a related field preferred; equivalent work experience may be considered.
- 5–8 years of experience in software engineering, automation engineering, data engineering, machine learning engineering, solutions engineering, or a similar technical role.
- Experience building or supporting AI-enabled workflows, automations, internal tools, or system integrations.
- Proficiency in at least one scripting or programming language such as Python or JavaScript.
- Experience working with APIs, integration patterns, and structured and unstructured data.
- Familiarity with modern AI/ML concepts, including large language models, prompt design, evaluation, and model or service integration.
- Experience with cloud platforms and developer tooling used to deploy, monitor, and maintain technical solutions.
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to balance speed, quality, security, and maintainability.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
- Experience documenting workflows, standards, and technical solutions for long-term maintainability.
- Preferred experience with workflow automation platforms, data pipelines, governance controls, experimentation, or internal enablement and change management.
- Preferred experience supporting responsible AI practices, model evaluation, or AI operations in a business environment.
- Experience working in product operations, product analytics, or product strategy with strong technical chops.
- Comfort handling sensitive customer or regulated data; familiarity with GovRAMP, FedRAMP, or similar frameworks is a plus.
Nice to Have:
- Prior product operations, product analytics, or product strategy background.
- GovTech, public sector, or regulated-industry experience.
- Experience designing AI-first product workflows (not just AI-features-on-existing-flows).
