About the role
<p><strong>Who We Are</strong></p>
<p><strong>Build. Scale. Sustain.</strong> </p>
<p>PALO IT is a global technology consultancy that crafts tech as a force for good. We design, develop and scale digital and sustainable products and services to unlock value across the triple bottom line: people, planet, profit. <strong>We do the right thing, and we do it right. </strong>We're proud to be a World Economic Forum New Champion, and a B Corp-certified company. </p>
<ul>
<li>We are <strong>small enough to care locally, big enough to deliver globally</strong> (5 continents, 18 offices, +500 experts from +50 nationalities)</li>
<li>We are <strong>robust and resilient</strong> (100% independent and 0 debt)</li>
<li>We are <strong>entrepreneurs and passionate experts</strong>: We invest in what we believe genuinely and work as a collective intelligence</li>
<li>We are <strong>positive, courageous, caring, doers and committed to excellence</strong></li>
</ul>
<p> </p>
<h3>About Gen-e2</h3>
<p>While the market is still largely AI-augmenting delivery, we have reinvented the SDLC to be AI First. Our approach is a game-changer in productivity and quality, with a strong collaboration between IA generative and our best Talents:</p>
<ul>
<li>We now generate 95% of the entire product — code, documentation, infrastructure as code, and even design — with GitHub Copilot.</li>
<li>The quality consistently exceeds the output of our best traditional engineering teams.</li>
<li>A product repository houses all product artefacts, giving AI full project context for higher-quality generation.</li>
<li>A library of rules and prompts defines coding standards, design principles, and security guidelines, ensuring enterprise-grade quality and scalability.</li>
</ul>
<p>With Gen-e2, we deliver end-to-end products 2–3× faster than traditional approaches, while raising the bar for engineering excellence.</p>
