Job description
LandingAI is a leader in Agentic Document Intelligence. Our flagship solution, Agentic Document Extraction (ADE), replaces traditional OCR with layout-aware AI system that parses complex documents without the need for rigid templates. By providing visual grounding for full auditability, ADE enables high-stakes industries like financial services and healthcare to extract valuable data and to automate critical workflows with unmatched accuracy. In addition to document intelligence, we offer the LandingLens™ platform for vision-AI anchored computer vision applications including inspection, defect detection and robotics.
About the Role:
As a Software Engineer at LandingAI, you will build and maintain core web applications and services that power our AI-driven products.

- Use LLMs to build scalable and reliable AI agents.
- Own the full software development lifecycle: design, implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, and maintenance.
- Ensure high standards for code quality, testing, observability, and operational excellence.
- Troubleshoot production issues and participate in on-call or support rotations when needed.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical best practices across teams.
- Act as a strong cross-functional partner between product, engineering, and ML teams.
Required Qualifications:
- Minimum of 5 years of professional experience in software engineering.
- Advanced skills in Python, web backend development, and building AI agents.
- Knowledge of containerization tools (Docker, Kubernetes) or cloud platforms (AWS, GCP).
- In-depth understanding of web application architecture and API design principles.
- Proven experience integrating with external services or intricate backend systems.
- Experience working with LLMs to develop AI agents that are scalable and reliable.
- Experience evaluating and benchmarking AI products.
- Demonstrated ability to work autonomously, showing high ownership and accountability.
- Excellent communication skills and experience collaborating effectively with diverse, cross-functional teams.
- Flexibility to adjust working hours to accommodate the needs of a global team.
- Experience using AI Coding Agents like Claude Code to develop reliable, scalable and high quality code.
Valuable / Bonus Qualifications:
- Experience with ML frameworks like PyTorch.
- Experience with serving ML models and LLMs (vLLM).
- Experience collaborating with Machine Learning (ML) or data teams.
- Familiarity with ML concepts, including inference, model serving, latency considerations, and data pipelines.
- Experience utilizing PostgreSQL, Object-Relational Mappers (ORMs), ETL pipelines.
- Experience developing developer-facing tools or internal platform solutions.
