Founding AI Engineer

We’re partnering with an early-stage, mission-driven AI startup building AI tools to accelerate nuclear energy deployment
-a company where climate impact meets frontier technology. Their flagship platform enables regulatory research, search, and compliance drafting with AI outputs that are truthful, auditable, and complete
, helping unlock one of the most important bottlenecks in the energy transition.

The founding team includes leaders from top-tier engineering organizations and the nuclear industry, combining deep technical execution with domain expertise.

As a Founding AI Engineer
, you’ll take ownership of all things LLM
-from fine-tuning and evaluation to productionization and agent development. You’ll work hands‑on with researchers, engineers, and nuclear experts to design models that perform at the intersection of high-stakes reasoning and real-world reliability.

• Build and deploy production-grade LLM agents powering the company’s core product.

• Design evaluation frameworks and benchmarking pipelines to ensure trustworthy and consistent model behavior.

• Develop synthetic data generation and fine-tuning pipelines optimized for regulated, safety-critical domains.

• Collaborate cross-functionally to bring research into production and support future model extensions (vision, physics, robotics).

• Set the technical direction for AI infrastructure and mentor early hires as the team scales.

• Proven experience building and deploying LLM systems in production (fine‑tuning, RAG, evals).

• Deep familiarity with Hugging Face, Lang Chain, vector databases, and LLM Ops best practices.

• Strong understanding of model evaluation, data quality, and prompt/agent design.

• Hands‑on, startup‑ready mindset
  -you enjoy owning outcomes end to end.

• Bonus: open-source contributions, published research, or experience at the cutting edge of applied ML.

• Mission-driven impact: Help unlock clean nuclear energy and power the AI era responsibly.

• High ownership: Founding-level influence on product, research, and infrastructure.

• Exceptional team: Work alongside engineers and scientists from leading institutions and companies.

• Top-of-market compensation: Competitive salary, equity, and comprehensive benefits.
