IT SOFTWARE Engineer

Key Responsibilities

  • AI-Driven Solutions Engineering — Translate business requirements into well-architected solutions; identify manual processes and engineer scalable automation — including AI agents and LLM-powered workflows — to eliminate them.
  • Full-Stack Development — Design, develop, and maintain internal web applications end-to-end, with seamless integration into existing platforms, using AI-assisted development tooling to accelerate delivery across the stack.
  • AI Tooling & Integration — Build and maintain internal tools and integrations on top of LLM APIs and AI platforms; continuously evaluate emerging AI capabilities and embed them into engineering and business workflows.
  • Infrastructure & Cloud — Architect and maintain a hybrid environment spanning on-premises servers and multi-cloud workloads (Google Cloud, Alibaba Cloud); ensure the reliability, availability, and performance of all core IT systems.
  • Database Management — Own database design, maintenance, and performance optimization across production environments.
  • Security & Governance — Embed security-by-design across systems; maintain a robust security baseline and contribute to ongoing security-hardening initiatives.
  • Service Delivery — Uphold a high standard of service delivery, ensuring users are well-supported and issues resolved promptly and professionally.
  • Stakeholder Engagement & Reporting — Provide clear, timely reporting to business stakeholders and maintain effective coordination with the parent company in Shanghai, including regular Chinese-language communication.

Requirements

  • 3-5 years of experience in IT & full-stack web development
  • Fluency with AI development tooling (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) and a proven track record of leveraging it to materially accelerate delivery.
  • Hands-on experience building with AI — integrating AI into applications, automations, or internal tools — and a strong grasp of how to apply AI effectively and securely in production.
  • Strong full-stack development capability in TypeScript/JavaScript (Node.js) and a modern front-end framework such as React; working knowledge of PHP is advantageous.
  • A solid command of database design and performance optimization (e.g., MySQL).
  • A strong understanding of cloud platforms (Google Cloud, Alibaba Cloud) alongside physical server configuration.
  • A comprehensive grasp of cyber-security principles and secure-by-design practice, including vulnerability and patch management.
  • An industry-recognized security certification (CISSP, CISA, or equivalent) is highly regarded.
  • Professional fluency in both English and Chinese, given the requirement for communication with the Shanghai-based parent company.
  • A mature, meticulous, proactive, and resourceful disposition, with genuine commitment to both operational excellence and building.
  • Team player

What We Offer

  • Good AI toolkit — including Cursor, ChatGPT, and Claude Code — because we expect you to build with the best.
  • Accountability and Ownership — you'll have the room to design, build internal products from the ground up, and the latitude to shape, modernize, and improve the systems you inherit.
  • Exceptional technical breadth — hybrid cloud, identity, security, automation, and application development within a single role.
  • A competitive remuneration package.
  • The opportunity to contribute to — and help advance — a mature, well-architected security and automation practice.
