Lead Advisor/AI-Native Engineering

1 Lead Advisor/AI-Native Engineering Your Tasks

• Introduce AI-assisted engineering into client teams and make it stick - coding assistants, agents, spec-driven development.
• Design guardrails for coding agents: scoped permissions, human-in-the-loop checkpoints, review and CI gates that agent-generated code can't bypass.
• Keep quality high where agents are in the loop - definition of done for agent output, tests and static analysis as the real safety net, review practices that catch plausible-but-wrong code.
• Run agents economically - right-sized context and models per task, no runaway loops, cost tracked per outcome.
• Assess AI readiness at delivery level and map legacy systems onto realistic replacement paths.
• Independently facilitate Big Picture Event Storming and technical workshops with CTOs, architects, and development teams.
• Help evolve SQUER's "AI in the SDLC" offering and spot follow-up engagement potential in running projects.

Your Qualifications

• Several years of development experience, including a lead or senior role with real ownership of a system or a team.
• AI-assisted coding on a complex project, professional or private - describable with tool, scope, and outcome.
• Own AI practice beyond ChatGPT: own workflows, agents, MCP servers, custom GPTs.
• Solid understanding of LLMs, agents, and RAG - what each is and when to use it.
• Hands-on experience putting guardrails around coding agents, and a clear sense of where agentic coding typically goes wrong.
• Confident in CI/CD, testing, and iterative delivery.
• Comfortable running a workshop in front of an unfamiliar group.
• Fluent in German and English - both required.
