Senior AI/DevOps Engineer

Senior AI/DevOps Engineer

Position Description

CGI is seeking a Senior AI/DevOps Engineer to join a fast-paced technology team supporting a Corporate Risk and Compliance organization within a large financial services environment. This role is ideal for a hands-on engineer who thrives on building end to end AI powered solutions from requirements through production deployment while also owning the cloud infrastructure and CI/CD processes that support them.

You'll work in a primarily Python codebase, building GenAI powered assistants, intelligent automation, and data driven applications on AWS. This isn't a role for someone who wants to build foundational LLMs from scratch — it's for an engineer who knows how to apply existing AI technologies (Lang Chain, Lang Graph, RAG, vector databases, AI agents) to solve real business problems in a regulated, high-stakes environment.

Beyond the technical work, you'll be expected to operate independently, take ownership of initiatives, and collaborate closely with a small, established, self-sufficient team. Strong communication and accountability matter just as much as technical depth here.

This position is required in one of the following locations: Lafayette, LA, Knoxville, TN, Birmingham, AL

Required qualifications to be successful in this role

. 5+ years independent Python development — you can write, debug, review, and optimize code without hand holding

. Solid SQL skills and comfort working with financial data, KPIs, and reporting requirements

. Deep AWS experience in a cloud native environment (this is an AWS first shop)

. Practical experience building and deploying AI/GenAI applications — think Lang Chain, Lang Graph, RAG pipelines, vector databases, embedding models, and multi agent workflows

. Working knowledge of how LLM based systems function, and how to apply them effectively (not a requirement to build LLMs from scratch)

. Hands on DevOps experience: CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or GitLab CI), containerization (Docker, ECS/EKS), and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or CloudFormation)

. Experience with large scale data processing and transformation, ideally including Redshift

. Familiarity with monitoring/observability tools like CloudWatch or Splunk

. Comfortable working with REST/SOAP/Fast API integrations for system-to-system communication

. A track record of owning problems end to end and communicating well with both technical and business stakeholders

Desired Skillset:

. front end experience (React or Angular)

Educational Requirements:

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field.
