Job Overview

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will join a fast-paced innovation team that builds and deploys AI-powered solutions directly with Coursera's enterprise and campus customers. You will sit at the intersection of AI/Data Engineering, cloud and security architecture, and customer-facing solutioning — working hands-on with customers to map their workflows and data, prototype solutions quickly, and harden the ones that prove valuable into production deployments.

You'll operate across the full engagement lifecycle: scoping a customer's environment and pain points like a consultant, prototyping working demos in real time with the customer, and then hardening the strongest patterns into production-grade, secure and compliant deployments. This role is customer-facing and will require regular travel to customer sites (domestic and occasionally international) for discovery, prototyping, and go-live phases of engagements. You will work closely with Product Managers, AI Specialists, Data Analysts, and other Engineers on the team, and directly with customer executive sponsors and IT/data owners, to decide what gets standardized, deployed, or retired.

Key Responsibilities

• Scope customer environments directly with executive sponsors and IT/data owners — mapping systems, data models, and workflows to identify the real business problem, not just the stated one
