AI Platform Engineer

Camping World Holdings | AI & Cloud Operations | (Hybrid)

Camping World Holdings is seeking an AI Platform Engineer to bridge our current cloud and DevOps operations with our next-generation AI-powered development platform. This is an individual contributor role on the AI & Cloud Operations team — you’ll help develop the platform underpinning our DevOps practice (AKS, CI/CD, IaC, and operational excellence) while equally driving AI development pipeline strategy, MCP server infrastructure, and the modernization of our delivery toolchain, and developing AI Agents to use within various AI platforms such as Claude, Gemini, Sierra, and DevRev.

This is a hands-on role with DevOps experience, cloud knowledge and previous AI Agent development and deployment

Production Readiness Assessment

• →Receive prototype applications and conduct structured assessments covering security posture, data model integrity, authentication and authorization flows, input validation, dependency hygiene, and test coverage quality
• →Identify and document failure patterns endemic to AI-generated code, including hardcoded secrets, flat or unindexed schemas, missing error handling, and hallucinated or unpinned dependencies
• →Produce clear remediation plans with prioritized findings, working within the architectural standards set by the Full-Stack Systems Architect
• →Hands-on experience building Agentic Agents in Gemini/Vertex, OpenAI, Claude, or similar tools

Code Remediation & Hardening

• →Refactor and harden AI-generated codebases to meet enterprise production standards across frontend frameworks, backend APIs, data modeling, and authentication systems
• →Replace or rewrite AI-generated test suites against human-reviewed acceptance criteria, ensuring coverage reflects real production behavior rather than checkbox validation
• →Use AI-augmented development tools (Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate remediation work while exercising independent judgment on when AI tooling is introducing new risk

Security & Compliance

• →Identify and remediate common security vulnerabilities including injection flaws, broken authentication, insecure direct object references, and exposed secrets or credentials
• →Implement and validate secure authentication and authorization patterns in accordance with enterprise security policies
• →Ensure applications meet CI/CD pipeline requirements and version control standards prior to production deployment

Pattern Recognition & Knowledge Management

• →Document recurring AI code failure patterns and contribute to a growing internal knowledge base
• →Feed pattern intelligence back upstream to improve prototype quality at the source, collaborating with developers and architects to reduce remediation burden over time
• →Stay current on AI-assisted development tooling, emerging failure modes, and production readiness best practices

Collaboration & Communication

• →Partner with application teams, architects, and business stakeholders to align on readiness criteria and timelines
• →Communicate technical findings clearly to both engineering and non-technical audiences
• →Provide guidance and thought leadership on responsible use of AI development tools within the engineering organization

• Strong full-stack fundamentals across at least one major frontend framework (React, Vue, Angular), backend API development, relational data modeling, and authentication systems
• Proficiency in Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, and at least one additional backend language
• Solid understanding of RESTful API design, database schema design, and ORM patterns
• Experience with version control discipline, branching strategies, and code review processes

AI Code Failure Pattern Recognition

• Strong ability to identify AI-generated code failure modes: hardcoded credentials, hallucinated libraries, flat schemas, checkbox tests, missing error handling, and over-reliance on happy-path logic
• Practical experience evaluating AI tool output for correctness, security, and production viability
• Ability to distinguish between AI tooling as an accelerant versus AI tooling compounding a problem

Security & Production Standards

• Familiarity with OWASP Top 10 and common application security vulnerabilities
• Experience implementing or validating secure authentication flows (OAuth 2.0, JWT, session management)
• Understanding of CI/CD pipeline requirements, environment configuration, and secrets management

Testing & Quality

• Experience writing and reviewing test suites with meaningful coverage — unit, integration, and end-to-end
• Ability to evaluate test quality and replace AI-generated checkbox tests with coverage that reflects real production behavior

Communication & Collaboration

• Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to present technical findings to non-technical stakeholders
• Proven ability to work both independently and within cross-functional engineering teams
• Self-starter with strong problem-solving skills and a bias toward documentation and knowledge sharing

Education & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Systems, or a related field; equivalent professional experience considered
• 1+ years of full-stack software development experience
• 1+ years of hands-on experience with AI-augmented development tools in a p
• Professional context (Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or equivalent)
• 1+ years of experience in application security, code review, or production engineering disciplines
• Demonstrated experience identifying and remediating vulnerabilities in production codebases

Strongly Preferred

• Hands-on experience building MCP servers or LLM tool-use integrations.
• Hands-on experience building agentic agents in Gemini/Vertex, OpenAI, Claude, or other AI Tools.
• Expertise in CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience with Kong, Kuma, or comparable API/service mesh tooling.Exposure to AI-assisted development platforms (Lovable, Cursor, Claude Code).
• Experience with monitoring and observability platforms (Dynatrace).

This role is part of the AI & Cloud Operations team, reporting to the Sr. Director of AI & Cloud. You’ll collaborate daily with platform engineers, application developers, and security and compliance stakeholders. We operate with a high degree of autonomy — you’ll be expected to drive decisions, document your work, and bring others along.

We use best-in-class AI-forward tooling, and we expect our engineers to model and advance that culture.

In addition to competitive pay, we offer Paid Time Off, 401(k), an Employee Assistance Program, Good Sam Roadside Assistance, discounts, paid parental leave (if eligibility is met), Tuition Reimbursement (if eligibility is met), and on the job training opportunities. Full-time associates are offered a comprehensive benefit package including medical, dental, vision and more! Part-time associates are offered access to dental & vision coverage!
