AI Rapid Prototype Developer Level 1

About the Role

The AI Rapid Prototyping Developer (Level 1) at ARCXIS rapidly prototypes and builds business solutions using AI-assisted development tools, low-code/no-code platforms, and modern application frameworks. This is an entry-level position for users learning to leverage these technologies on the job. It's a hands-on, build-first role for someone comfortable moving fast, iterating in tight feedback loops, and using AI to amplify output across the prototype-to-production lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

• Translate business ideas, requirements, and pain points into functional prototypes and working applications.
• Use AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor, or similar) to accelerate development, generate boilerplate, debug, and explore solution options.
• Build solutions on low-code/no-code platforms and modern application frameworks.
• Partner directly with business stakeholders and technical leaders to clarify goals, validate assumptions, and demo early and often.
• Iterate quickly based on user feedback, refining prototypes toward production-ready quality.
• Integrate solutions with existing systems, APIs, and data sources.
• Document what was built, how it works, and how it can be maintained or scaled.
• Identify opportunities where AI-assisted or low-code approaches can replace slower, more costly traditional development.
• Maintain a pragmatic balance between speed and quality.

Requirements & Tech Stack

• Experience with AI-assisted coding technologies, Claude, Codex, Github CoPilot.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and basic DevOps concepts.
• Exposure to prompt engineering and getting reliable, structured output from large language models.
• Basic understanding of security, privacy, and data-handling best practices.

Qualifications

• Bias for action: Defaults to building and demonstrating rather than only planning.
• Adaptability: Comfortable choosing among many tools and switching approaches as needed.
• Stakeholder partnership: Builds trust with business and technical leaders through clear communication and frequent delivery.
• Judgment: Knows when "fast and good enough" is right and when robustness matters.
• Curiosity: Continuously explores new AI and low-code capabilities.
