This is an entry-level role built for recent graduates and early-career engineers. You will learn directly from experienced platform engineers, contribute to real initiatives from your first weeks, and steadily build the skills to help design, deploy, and operate the systems that power AI across the enterprise. We care less about everything you already know and more about how quickly you learn, how you approach problems, and how much you care about doing good engineering work. The Team This is a unique opportunity to join the team that builds and operates the AI platform powering MassMutual's AI initiatives. The team works at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, AI/ML systems, and developer experience-delivering the foundational capabilities that shape how the entire organization builds and deploys AI. We partner closely with AI engineering, product, and cloud engineering teams across the enterprise, and we invest in growth through a culture of peer learning, candid feedback, mentorship, and shared technical standards.

Any hands-on experience with AI/ML frameworks or LLM APIs, even at a hobby or class-project level. A public portfolio or open-source contributions (e.g., GitHub) that show initiative and a habit of building. Experience collaborating on a team project such as a capstone, hackathon, or group assignment. Comfort with ambiguity and enthusiasm for learning quickly in a fast-moving space. What to Expect as Part of MassMutual and the Team Structured onboarding and a dedicated mentor to support your ramp-up and early growth Regular meetings with the AI Platform Engineering team Focused one-on-one meetings with your manager Networking opportunities including access to Asian, Hispanic/Latinx, African American, women, LGBTQIA+, veteran, and disability-focused Business Resource Groups Access to learning content on Degreed and other informational platforms A company with a strong and stable ethical business, industry-leading pay and benefits, where your ethics and integrity will be valued MassMutual is an equal employment opportunity employer.
