Overview

We are looking for a Principal Software Engineer to lead the design and implementation of the next generation AI and machine learning systems that power our omnichannel marketing and CRM platform. This is a foundational role for a leader who will fuse scalable traditional AI/ML with cutting-edge generative and agentic systems. You will build the intelligent core of our recommendation and targeting systems, responsible for everything from attribution and conversion prediction to dynamic, LLM-powered creative generation. You won't just optimize an existing system; you will define and build the future of AI-driven marketing and CRM at Intuit.

Responsibilities

* AI Solution Architect: Design and deploy the sophisticated ML systems that power our marketing solutions. This includes both large-scale ranking and recommendation models and innovative generative AI solutions for dynamic marketing creative, personalized copy, and audience modeling.

* Pioneer Marketing Agents: Lead the application of LLMs for end-to-end marketing optimization. Develop and productionize systems for automated marketing generation, personalized content adaptation, and building conversational, agentic interfaces for campaign and customer relationship management.

* Own the End-to-End AI/ML Lifecycle: Take full ownership of the process from ideation to production. This includes data pipelining, feature engineering, model training, low-latency deployment, online A/B experimentation, and continuous performance monitoring for both predictive and generative models.

* Solve for Scale and Performance: Architect systems designed for the unique demands of a modern marketing platform--handling high-throughput traffic, low-latency serving for both ranking and LLM inference, and processing massive datasets.

* Drive Technical Excellence for AI: Set the technical direction and establish best practices for blending traditional ML and generative AI within the marketing and CRM domains at Intuit. Act as a technical representative for AI/ML to the broader engineering and architecture community, guiding key decisions for how AI systems, processes, and capabilities develop.

This position will be eligible for a cash bonus, equity rewards and benefits, in accordance with our applicable plans and programs (see more about our compensation and benefits at [1] Intuit(R): Careers | Benefits).

Pay offered is based on factors such as job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and work location. To drive ongoing pay equity for employees, Intuit conducts regular comparisons across categories of ethnicity and gender.

Qualifications

* A MS or PhD in a quantitative field (Computer Science, Physics, Statistics, etc.) or equivalent deep industry experience.

* 10+ years of professional experience in applied AI/ML, with a proven track record of shipping and operating complex, large-scale machine learning systems in production.

* Deep Domain Expertise: Extensive, hands-on experience in large-scale ranking or recommendation systems. Direct experience in personalization or ad tech is essential, with a strong plus for experience in generative ads or applying LLMs to audience modeling.

* Proficiency in Modern AI: Demonstrated experience applying Large Language Models (LLMs) to real-world business problems, including knowledge of techniques like RAG, fine-tuning, and building agentic workflows.

* Hybrid AI science & ML engineering Skillset: You are both a strong modeler and a strong engineer. You have expertise in a wide range of ML algorithms and strong software engineering skills in languages like Python, Java, or Kotlin.

* Technical Leadership: Demonstrated ability to lead complex technical projects and influence the roadmap of a cross-functional team.

Preferred Qualifications

AI:

* Experience with multi-modal models for combined text and image ad generation.

* Deep familiarity with deep learning architectures for recommendation and ranking (e.g., Multi-Tower models, Transformers for sequence-aware recommendation, Multi-task NNs).

* Experience building reasoning engines or conversational agents for complex tasks.

ML:

* Deep familiarity with the infrastructure for serving LLMs at scale (e.g., vLLM, TensorRT-LLM).

* Experience with real-time data streaming technologies (e.g., Kafka, Kinesis, Flink).

* Experience building ML systems on a major cloud platform (AWS, GCP, Azure).
