What You'll Achieve

As a Software Principal Engineer (AI Empowered), you will be a key hands on leader who architects, builds, and operationalizes AI platforms and accelerates engineering through AI assisted development. You'll develop core infrastructure for AI workloads (LLMs, agentic systems, data/ML pipelines) and embed AI tools across the engineering lifecycle to uplift speed, quality, and innovation across Dell's solution platforms.

You will:

AI Platform Engineering

• Design, develop, and operate core AI platform components: MLOps pipelines, data handling, model serving, and observability.
• Implement and manage LLM tooling and prompt engineering frameworks; define reusable patterns for agents and retrieval workflows (e.g., vector databases).
• Deploy and maintain scalable compute environments on Kubernetes/OpenShift, VxRail, ensuring high availability, performance, and cost efficiency for AI workloads.
• Troubleshoot complex issues across the stack—from infrastructure and networking to runtime and application layers; contribute to technical documentation and platform best practices.
• Optimize GPU scheduling, resource management, and model runtime performance in containerized environments.

AI Assisted Application Engineering

• Drive adoption of AI assisted development tools (e.g., code generation, intelligent testing, automated documentation) and integrate LLM based services into engineering workflows.
• Build and maintain automation frameworks and CI/CD pipelines that leverage AI for code quality, security scanning, and performance optimization.
• Collaborate with platform engineers and product teams to embed AI capabilities into solution platforms (e.g., OpenShift, VxRail, VMware ecosystem).
• Develop reference implementations, guardrails, and best practices for AI assisted engineering across multiple product teams.
• Mentor engineers in effective use of AI tools to improve productivity while maintaining high quality standards; evaluate emerging AI technologies and recommend adoption strategies.

Essential Requirements

• Master's degree in Computer Science or related field, with 5+ years in software engineering or platform development.
• Strong programming skills in Python, Go, or Java; solid CS fundamentals and hands on experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift).
