About the Role

CogNet HR Solutions is seeking an AI Developer to design and build our AI-powered intelligent document processing and workflow automation platform which will process complex business documents such as PDFs, scanned documents, spreadsheets, forms, invoices, payroll reports, insurance documents, loss runs, applications, contracts, and other structured and unstructured data.

The AI Developer will work across the complete AI pipeline from document ingestion and classification through extraction, validation, reasoning, workflow automation, human review, and enterprise integration. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who can take AI solutions from prototype to secure, reliable production.

Preferred Technology Stack

AI / LLM: OpenAI APIs, Azure OpenAI, Amazon Bedrock, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Hugging Face, vision-language models.

AI Frameworks: LangChain, LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, LlamaIndex, and agent/tool-calling frameworks.

Programming: Strong Python proficiency

- FastAPI, Pydantic, REST APIs, JSON and JSON Schema.

Experience integrating AI services with C# / ASP.NET Core is highly desirable.

Document Processing: PyMuPDF/PDF libraries, OCR technologies, AWS Textract, Azure Document Intelligence, Document AI, OpenCV, and Excel processing.

Data: SQL Server/PostgreSQL, vector databases, embeddings, semantic search, Redis or equivalent caching.

Cloud / DevOps: AWS, Docker, Git, CI/CD, S3, Lambda, ECS/EKS, CloudWatch, SQS or equivalent messaging/queue technologies.

Ideal Candidate

We are looking for a builder rather than someone focused only on AI research. The ideal candidate can take a business problem such as: “Read these 200-page insurance documents, identify the document types, extract the required information, validate the information, identify exceptions, and return structured data through an API,” and design and implement the complete production solution.

The candidate should be comfortable experimenting with current AI models while maintaining the engineering discipline required for secure, reliable enterprise software.
