Senior AI Software Engineer

Emerson • Austin, TX

23h • Onsite

About The Position

In This Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:
You will design and develop AI‑enabled software solutions that accelerate
productivity across Emerson’s Test & Measurement business unit, NI, using a
breadth of tools beginning with Microsoft Copilot and Power Platform. You will
rapidly prototype and iterate on ideas, using AI to quickly learn new
technologies and deliver working solutions with short feedback loops. You will
integrate applications with enterprise systems—initially within the Microsoft
ecosystem and expanding to platforms such as Snowflake, Salesforce, and Oracle.
You will collaborate closely with product owners, analysts, and business
partners to validate needs and deliver solutions that create measurable value.
You will also build reusable patterns and guide others in effective use of AI
tools, strengthening developer enablement across NI. Throughout your work, you
will navigate ambiguity confidently, adapt to shifting priorities, and uphold
high standards for software quality, security, and reliability.

Who You Are:

You are a hands‑on senior engineer who thrives in fast‑moving environments and
enjoys building solutions that solve real business problems. You learn quickly,
adapt confidently to new technologies, and are energized by ambiguity. You are
not afraid to experiment, fail fast, and iterate toward better solutions. You
communicate clearly, collaborate broadly, and are comfortable presenting new
tools or prototypes to both technical and non‑technical audiences. You enjoy
enabling others as much as building yourself.
