Overview

We’re looking for an adaptable AI/LLM engineer who thrives in ambiguity—someone comfortable jumping into new problem spaces, rapidly learning what’s needed, and shipping pragmatic solutions. You’ll turn fuzzy ideas into working prototypes and then into reliable, scalable systems that create real value.

• Tackle open-ended AI problems: clarify goals, propose approach options, and choose sensible trade-offs.
• Stand up end-to-end workflows—from data wrangling and evaluation through deployment and monitoring.
• Build quick experiments and MVPs to de-risk unknowns, then harden them for production.
• Create lightweight tooling that helps others explore, test, and iterate on AI features.
• Work across teams (security, infra, product, domain experts) to ship responsibly in real-world environments, including sensitive contexts.
• Document decisions, assumptions, and risks so others can build on your work.

We’re an Equal Opportunity Employer: You’ll receive consideration for employment without regard to race, sex, color, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, protected veteran status, or on the basis of disability. www.
