About the Role The Senior AI Engineer is the technical force multiplier behind ClassWallet's AI transformation.

You will spend your days writing code, prototyping agents, embedding with business teams to understand their workflows, and turning ambiguous problems into shipped solutions that produce measurable results in days and weeks - not quarters. You'll set the technical bar for how AI is built and operated at ClassWallet.
