The Role
Ryzen Solutions’ client is looking for a senior engineer to help build the infrastructure behind their internal AI tools.

Keep code quality high through reviews and CI/CD best practices.
Work with AI and security teams to make sure the architecture meets business needs.
Help other engineers work through tough technical trade-offs.
