AI Engineer

Terminal AI, a technology development and consulting firm focused on building and deploying practical AI systems, agentic workflows, and automations for businesses.

Terminal AI’s core philosophy is "Build what matters. Faster." Rather than acting as traditional consultants who just deliver strategy reports, they operate as hands-on builders who embed directly into a company's operations.

• Forward-Deployed Engineers: Stationed embeds elite AI engineers directly into a client's team. These engineers engage with the messy realities of a company's business processes and start shipping production-grade code and working AI systems from week one, with no long ramp-up periods.
• 6-Week Sprints: They typically operate in focused, six-week engagements scoped to tackle a specific mission or build a specific system, ensuring fast delivery.
• 100% Capability Transfer: A key differentiator for Stationed is their focus on ownership. At the end of an engagement, they don't just hand over a product; they train the internal team and provide full documentation so the client's employees can maintain, own, and extend the AI systems themselves.
• Custom Agentic Systems: They specialize in building multi-step agent workflows, integrating Large Language Model (LLM) APIs, developing webhooks, and orchestrating cloud services to solve specific operational challenges and save time.
• Training & Labs: Alongside building infrastructure, they offer hands-on training programs (ranging from 4 to 6 weeks) on topics like prompt engineering and AI-accelerated development to upskill a company's existing workforce.

In short, Stationed AI acts as an accelerator for companies that want to integrate advanced AI workflows into their day-to-day operations but lack the specialized internal talent to build those tools from scratch.

We are building a new kind of AI deployment team: technical operators who can sit inside a customer’s business, understand how work actually happens, and turn messy operational problems into shipped AI systems.

As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will work directly with customers, executives, operators, and internal engineering teams to identify high-leverage workflows, design AI-native solutions, and deploy production-grade systems that create measurable business outcomes.

This is not a pure software engineering role.

It is also not a pure consulting role.

You need to be technical enough to build, debug, and ship real systems — and business-minded enough to understand the customer’s incentives, constraints, workflows, and definition of success.

The best people for this role are part engineer, part product thinker, part operator, and part customer translator.

The position is located in Miami and will require onsite meetings at our office in the Wynwood neighborhood. Mondays and Wednesdays are required in-office work days.

• Embed with customers to understand their business, workflows, data, tools, and operational bottlenecks.
• Translate ambiguous business problems into clear technical requirements, system designs, implementation plans, and success metrics.
• Build and deploy AI-powered workflows, agents, automations, integrations, dashboards, and internal tools.
• Work across APIs, databases, LLMs, retrieval systems, automation platforms, and customer software stacks.
• Prototype quickly, validate with users, and iterate based on real-world feedback.
• Partner with internal engineers to scope, prioritize, and ship production-ready systems.
• Lead customer-facing technical conversations, including discovery, calibration, implementation updates, and handoff.
• Identify where AI is useful, where it is not, and how to design systems that fit into human workflows.
• Document systems clearly so…
