Title: IT & AI Enablement Engineer
Location: Elkridge, MD, US (Remote)
Salary Range: $110,000 – 130,000
About the Role
We’re a software company actively rolling out AI tools across our organization and need someone to help us do it right — not just technically, but in a way that the rest of the business can actually adopt and use. This is a hands-on role with real ownership. You won’t be handed a detailed story and asked to close it. You’ll be handed a problem and expected to think it all the way through — from how it gets built to how it gets deployed, monitored, supported, and used by people who aren’t technical.
You’ll work closely with IT leadership to scope and deliver AI-powered tooling and automations across the business. You’ll also be the person who helps others in the organization understand and use these tools — training them, supporting them, and figuring out how to scale what works for one person into something that works for everyone.
If you’re the kind of engineer who finishes things — not just the code, but everything around it — and who gets energy from seeing the whole business benefit from something you built, this role is for you.
What You’ll Do
Build and own end-to-end
- Take problems — not just requirements — and think through the full solution: build, deployment, security, monitoring, supportability, and ease of use
- Deliver things that are actually done: documented, deployed, observable, maintainable, and usable by non-technical people
- When you solve a problem, ask whether that solution works for one person or for everyone — and build toward the latter. See patterns across business units and bring that thinking proactively to IT leadership
Business engagement
- Sit in on calls with IT leadership and business units to understand problems at their source — not just receive filtered requirements
- Ask the right questions to understand what people actually need, not just what they asked for
- Work alongside non-technical business users collaboratively, not as someone who takes a spec and disappears
Training and enablement
- Train people across the business on AI tools — Claude Code, approved integrations, and whatever comes next
- Build training that scales: guides, walkthroughs, and resources that don’t require you to be in the room
- Be the person who makes tools feel accessible to people who would otherwise be intimidated by them
What We’re Looking For
Experience
- 3–6 years of software development or technical engineering experience — enough to think like a developer, not necessarily to write code all day
- Has worked in environments where they owned problems, not just stories — small teams, startups, or roles where there was no one else to figure it out
- Hands-on experience building and deploying in cloud environments — AWS, GCP, or Azure — including familiarity with how applications get hosted, monitored, and maintained in production
- Hands-on experience with AI coding tools — Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar — on real work, not just experimentation
- Comfortable with GitHub, scripting, and automation at a working level
- Has built and shipped things that other people use — and has felt the difference between “technically complete” and “actually done”
- Degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related technical field
How you think and work
- You see the whole problem — build, deploy, secure, monitor, support — not just the feature in front of you
- You’re calibrated on new technology: you can evaluate whether something provides real value before committing to it, and you’re not chasing every new tool that comes out
- You communicate clearly with people who aren’t technical — you can explain what something does, why it matters, and how to use it without jargon
- You’re easy to work with across the business — curious, patient, and genuinely interested in understanding what people need
- You bring problems and ideas to leadership early rather than disappearing and surfacing issues late
- You know when something needs a decision from someone else — and you ask rather than assume
What we’re not looking for
- Someone who has only worked in large org environments where work was handed to them in detailed stories
- Someone who will come back and say “done” when the feature works but nothing around it is in place
- Someone who needs to be told every next step after delivering the first one
