We're hiring an AI/ML Engineer to design, build, and deploy intelligent systems that solve real business problems — not research projects. You'll work directly on production systems, own full model life cycles, and integrate AI capabilities into our platforms. We expect systems thinking, not just model tuning.

• Design, train, fine-tune, and deploy ML/AI models into production environments
• Build and maintain LLM-powered pipelines including RAG, agents, and tool-use architectures
• Develop and operationalize data pipelines supporting model training and inference
• Integrate AI functionality with existing APIs, SaaS platforms, and internal tools
• Instrument models for observability — latency, drift, accuracy, and cost
• Collaborate with product and engineering to translate business requirements into model specs
• Write clean, documented, production-grade code — not just notebooks

• 3+ years ML/AI engineering in production
• Python (fluent) — PyTorch or Tensor Flow
• LLM integration:
  OpenAI, Anthropic, or open-source (Llama, Mistral)
• REST API design and consumption
• MLOps fundamentals: versioning, CI/CD for models, monitoring
• Vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector, or similar)
• Git-based workflow with strong code review habits

• Lang Chain, Llama Index, or custom agent frameworks
• Cloud ML: AWS Sage Maker, GCP Vertex AI, or Azure ML
• Fine-tuning:
  LoRA, QLoRA, RLHF pipelines
• Data engineering:
  Spark, Airflow, dbt
• Evaluation frameworks (RAGAS, Lang Smith, custom evals)
• Experience in recruiting tech, HR tech, or B2B SaaS

• You ship to production — not just to notebooks or staging
• You think in systems: incentives, feedback loops, failure modes
• You raise problems early and with proposed solutions
• You're direct, own your decisions, and don't require hand-holding
• Remote-first mindset — async communication, high written clarity, proactive updates

• Competitive hourly rate commensurate with experience
• 100% remote — work from anywhere, certain aspect require U.S. Based location
• Flexible hours with async-first culture
• Direct access to leadership — no bureaucracy, high ownership
• Opportunity to shape AI strategy at a high-growth recruiting platform
