Senior Data​/ML​/AI Engineer

About Raynmaker

Raynmaker.ai is the AI-native sales engine purpose-built for small and mid-sized businesses. We empower local and franchise businesses to compete with enterprise-level capabilities—through AI-driven lead targeting, next-best-action automation, and intuitive workflows that help them close more deals, faster. We're a venture-backed, fast-growing team committed to helping SMBs grow with confidence.

We’re seeking a Senior Data / ML / AI Engineer to architect and build the intelligence layer of our autonomous sales platform. This role is responsible for designing, implementing, and optimizing the ML, LLM, scoring, retrieval, and agent-based systems that power live customer interactions and real business outcomes.

You will work closely with technology leadership to convert AI concepts into scalable, production-grade systems — including RAG pipelines, reinforcement-learning-based decision systems, vectorized knowledge bases, custom LLM deployments, real-time streaming inference, and multi-tenant data pipelines.

If you are a senior engineer who can bridge ML science, distributed systems, and pragmatic productionization, this role will put you at the core of a first-of-its-kind AI-native platform.

• Design, develop, and optimize RAG pipelines with high-performance vector databases (Milvus, Zilliz, Pinecone, Weaviate).
• Build scoring, ranking, and predictive models that drive real-time decision-making for sales and customer interactions.
• Develop and refine agent-driven architectures
  , including tool calling, memory management, and multi-step reasoning flows.
• Deploy, fine‑tune, and optimize custom LLMs
  , ensuring cost efficiency and performance at scale.
• Enrich internal knowledge bases and embeddings using advanced ML techniques.

• Build large-scale data ingestion, transformation, and real-time streaming pipelines for model training and inference.
• Implement reinforcement learning systems that improve agent behaviors over time.
• Own ML model lifecycle: development, evaluation, deployment, optimization, and monitoring.
• Drive LLM cost optimization
  , including token efficiency, caching, and inference routing.

• Architect and maintain microservices exposing ML/LLM capabilities through secure APIs.
• Work with real-time systems:
  voice, streaming, Web Sockets
  , and other live interaction pipelines.
• Ensure multi-tenant data isolation, configuration management, and performance scaling.
• Collaborate cross‑functionally to define data contracts, agent flows, and platform intelligence requirements.

• 7+ years of ML Engineering experience in production environments.
• Expert-level Python for ML workflows, backend services, and data pipelines.
• Strong experience with vector databases (Milvus, Zilliz, Pinecone, Weaviate).
• Experience building and deploying reinforcement learning systems
  .
• Deep hands‑on experience with LLMs, RAG, prompting, scoring models, and tool calling
  .
• Experience with Lang Chain / Lang Graph and modern LLM orchestration frameworks.
• Proven ability to design and optimize large‑scale ML data pipelines
  .
• Production experience with real-time systems (voice, streaming, Web Sockets).
• Proficiency with SQL and No
  
  SQL databases.
• Strong understanding of microservices architecture
  , distributed systems, and event‑driven workflows.
• Proficiency with Docker & Kubernetes for deployment and orchestration.
• Experience delivering custom LLM deployments in production.
• Ability to collaborate with engineering leadership and turn concepts into shipped capabilities.

• Experience with streaming data systems (Kafka, Kinesis, Pulsar).
• Experience with model monitoring, drift detection, and automated evaluation
• Background with AWS ML stack (Sage Maker, Bedrock, EKS, Lambda).
• Experience with model compression, quantization, or accelerated inference.
• Familiarity with CRM data patterns or real-time ingestion (Salesforce, Hub Spot, Zoho).
