In short

Ericsson is seeking a Senior Software Engineer for their Applied AI team in Austin, Texas. This hybrid role focuses on building foundational tooling, governance, and platforms for AI-assisted software development, aiming to create secure, reusable, and scalable solutions for hundreds of developers.

Responsibilities

  • Build and evolve foundational tooling for AI-assisted software development.
  • Develop standards, registries, and reusable components.
  • Contribute to AI marketplaces, including integrations for IP scanning, security, and governance.
  • Integrate governance and compliance controls into CI/CD pipelines and developer workflows.
  • Design and implement APIs, tools, and services that connect AI assistants, development environments, and internal platforms.
  • Help build the next generation of agentic IDEs and Code OSS-based development experiences.
  • Identify and close gaps related to software reuse, IP protection, security, and responsible AI adoption.
  • Partner with developers, security teams, platform engineers, and technology leaders.
  • Take ownership of ambiguous requirements and drive solutions from concept to production adoption.
  • Measure adoption, usability, reliability, and impact across the developer community.

Requirements

  • Strong software engineering fundamentals, including design, testing, maintainability, and operational ownership.
  • Hands-on experience building or integrating AI- and LLM-based development tools.
  • Experience designing or integrating APIs, developer tools, plugins, agents, or platform services.
  • Practical fluency with CI/CD pipelines and modern software delivery practices.
  • A security-minded engineering approach, including awareness of secure design, access control, data protection, and supply-chain or IP risks.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work across teams and technical domains.
  • A builder’s mindset: practical, curious, outcome-oriented, and comfortable making sound decisions with incomplete information.
  • Experience delivering software that is adopted and used in production—not only prototypes or proofs of concept.

Desired Qualifications

  • Developer-experience platforms, internal tooling, or engineering productivity systems.
  • Code OSS, VS Code extensions, IDE integrations, or developer portals.
  • AI marketplaces, model/tool registries, or agent frameworks.
  • Software supply-chain security, IP governance, compliance automation, or policy-as-code.
  • Platform engineering and infrastructure used across large engineering organizations.
  • Taking an ambiguous problem from 0 to 1 and turning it into an adopted tool, standard, or service.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary range dependent on qualifications and experience.
  • Opportunity for an annual bonus based on business and individual performance.
  • Excellent health benefits with choice of medical and dental plans, including company credits towards premiums.
  • 401(k) Plan with automatic 3% company contribution and a 100% match on the first 3% of eligible pay plus a 50% match on the next 2%.
  • Company-paid basic life insurance, AD&D coverage, short-term and long-term disability coverage.
  • Option to participate in Ericsson’s Stock Purchase Plan.
  • Minimum of 15 days of accrued vacation, up to 3 personal days per year, 11 annual holidays, 8 hours of volunteer time, and 80 hours of sick time annually.
  • Up to 16 weeks of paid maternity leave and 6 weeks of parental or adoption leave at 100% pay.
  • Financial wellness programs, educational assistance, matching gifts, and recognition programs.
