TL;DR · AI Engineer

AI ENGINEER As an AI Engineer within the Data Science and Data Engineering team, you will design, prototype, and integrate AI-enabled capabilities into mission-critical tools. You will focus on applying existing large language models to real workflows rather than training new models from scratch. Your daily responsibilities include building agentic solutions, developing multi-agent systems of coordinated agents and prompts, and automating manual tasks to streamline reporting and intelligence operations. You will also develop robust testing and validation strategies for AI outputs while collaborating with system engineers and software developers. The role requires proficiency in Python, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and orchestration frameworks like LangChain or LlamaIndex. Key technical skills include prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, vector databases, and MLOps practices to solve complex problems involving the integration of foundation models into existing software architectures via RESTful APIs.
