About the role

As a Frontier Engineer (AI/Agentic), you will make an impact by helping build scalable, cost-optimized, and secure AI-enabled solutions that reimagine business processes and deliver measurable outcomes for clients. You will be a valued member of the Cognizant Forward team and work collaboratively with experienced engineers, architects, data scientists, and AI practitioners in a small, cross-functional pod.

Frontier Engineers combine modern software engineering, cloud development, and AI technologies to build scalable digital solutions. Successful candidates typically demonstrate strength in full-stack or backend application development, API design, databases, cloud platforms, and emerging AI technologies.

Support the development of AI-enabled applications, agentic workflows, and automation solutions, including context and harness engineering.
Design, develop, integrate, and support full-stack applications, backend services, APIs, databases, and cloud-native application components.
Help evaluate AI-generated outputs for quality, accuracy, performance, and business relevance.
Contribute to knowledge and context systems, retrieval workflows, testing, deployment, monitoring, documentation, and operational support.
Apply responsible AI principles and software engineering best practices while continuously learning new tools and technologies.

Experience building software applications through academic, internship, research, hackathon, or personal projects using one or more programming languages such as Java, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, or C#.
Foundational knowledge of software engineering principles including object-oriented programming, data structures, algorithms, testing, debugging, and application design.
Exposure to full-stack or backend development concepts, including APIs, databases, application architecture, and integration of front-end and back-end systems.
Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills, with strong written and verbal communication.

These will help you stand out

Experience working with modern software development frameworks and technologies used for web, backend, or cloud application development.
Exposure to relational or NoSQL databases, application integration patterns, and data-driven solution development.
Exposure to cloud platforms such as Microsoft Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud.
Familiarity with source control tools such as Git, CI/CD practices, containerization, or modern software development workflows.
Familiarity with generative AI, large language models, prompt engineering, AI agents, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), or AI-assisted development tools.

We're excited to meet people who share our mission and can make an impact in a variety of ways. Don't hesitate to apply, even if you only meet the minimum requirements listed. Think about your transferable experiences and unique skills that make you stand out as someone who can bring new and exciting things to this role.
