Ziosk is looking for a highly experienced AI Software Engineer-Reliability to join our Engineering team. This role combines deep technical debugging expertise with the use of AI-driven tooling and agent frameworks to accelerate issue diagnosis, reduce resolution timeframes, and improve system resilience across the Ziosk platform. You will leverage AI agents, intelligent log analysis, automated root cause workflows, and code-assist tooling to decrease MTTR, improve defect triage speed, reduce repetitive manual debugging, proactively identify systemic reliability risks. This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, production operations, and applied AI automation.

Requirements

3+ years of professional software engineering experience, including work in production environments.
Proficiency in C++, C#, Kotlin, and Android development.
Strong debugging and root cause analysis skills across multiple platforms.
Hands-on experience using AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Copilot, LLM-based workflows) as part of daily engineering work.
Practical experience building or contributing to AI-driven automation workflows, such as log analysis, retrieval-based systems, or task automation.
Understanding of RESTful APIs, multithreading, memory management, and performance troubleshooting.
Experience working with version control and CI/CD pipelines to deploy and validate fixes safely.
Ability to analyze recurring defects and propose automation or systemic improvements.
Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across engineering and operations teams.
