Job Description

Senior Developer — Conversational AI Delivery

Waterfield Tech

ROLE OVERVIEW

We are looking for a senior developer to join our Conversational AI Design & Delivery team as a core technical contributor. You will work in collaboration with our technical lead to design, develop, test, and deliver conversational AI solutions for customers.

This is not a support role. We need someone who can operate as a technical pillar on the team: autonomous, reliable, and strong enough to carry delivery workstreams independently while collaborating closely with technical leadership.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Design, develop, test, and deliver conversational AI solutions (chatbots, voicebots, IVR systems) for customer and internal projects
• Take ownership of delivery workstreams end-to-end, from technical design through deployment
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams — project managers, conversational designers, QA — across the full project lifecycle
• Work directly with customers throughout project delivery, including technical discussions and demos
• Apply disciplined software engineering practices, fully leveraging agentic coding tools (e.g. Claude Code, Codex) to maximize quality and velocity

CORE REQUIREMENTS

• 6+ years of hands-on software development experience
• Proficiency across multiple programming languages, with 4+ years using Python or TypeScript
• Experience with cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, or Azure)
• Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and carry technical delivery with minimal supervision
• Experience with disciplined engineering practices: version control, code review, CI/CD, automated testing
• Strong communication skills — comfortable interacting with customers, presenting technical work, and collaborating across disciplines

KEY QUALITIES

• Team player — collaborative, willing to pitch in where needed
• Creative problem solver — brings ideas, not just execution
• Organized and dependable — manages multiple workstreams without dropping balls
• Curious and adaptable — eager to learn new platforms and technologies
• Comfortable with ambiguity — can navigate evolving requirements and new problem domains

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience in delivering solutions for customer service / contact center (CCaaS) environments
• Exposure to NLU or speech technologies (e.g. speech recognition, speech synthesis)
• Experience working in a consulting or professional services delivery model
• Experience with Google Dialogflow, Amazon Lex, or similar conversational AI platforms

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS

• Ability to sit for extended periods
• Ability to lift or carry objects up to 10 lbs.
• Frequent use of computer, telephone and standard office equipment.
