Staff AI Engineer

Company Overview

Job Overview

In this role, you'll be embedded inside a vibrant team of AI scientists and engineers. You'll be expected to help conceive, code, and deploy AI models & generative AI agentic systems at scale using the latest industry tools

Important skills include data pipeline development, prompt engineering, model fine-tuning, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and developing robust evaluation metrics.

Responsibilities

• Work with AI scientists and engineers to design and implement agentic systems

• Discover data sources, get access to them, import them, clean them up, and prepare them for model training and fine-tuning

• Work with AI scientists to develop and refine data pipelines, building robust systems for fine-tuning, serving, and deploying AI models

• Partner with data scientists and researchers to understand, implement, refine, and design advanced AI and generative model architectures [adapted from: 9].

• Run regular A/B tests, gather data, perform statistical analysis, and draw conclusions on the impact of your AI solutions .
  
  

• Work cross-functionally with product managers, data scientists, and product engineers, and communicate results to peers and leaders.
  
  

• Explore new advancements in the generative AI landscape to determine how they might connect with the customer benefits we wish to deliver

Qualifications

• BS, MS, or PhD degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  
  

• 6+ years of experience.
  
  

• Knowledgeable with AI/ML tools and frameworks (i.e., Python, Hugging Face (Transformers, PEFT), Numpy, Pandas, PyTorch, TensorFlow, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Spark)

• Deep knowledge of generative AI techniques (i.e., Large Language Models (LLMs), RAG, fine-tuning (LoRA, QLoRA), multi-modal models, and vector databases)

• Understand machine learning principles (training, validation, etc.)
  
  

• Knowledge of data query and data processing tools (i.e. SQL)

• Computer science fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, performance complexity, and implications of computer architecture on software performance (e.g., I/O and memory tuning)

• Software engineering fundamentals: version control systems (i.e. Git, Github) and workflows, and ability to write production-ready code
  
  

• Experience deploying highly scalable software supporting millions or more users
  
  

• Experience with GPU acceleration (i.e. CUDA and cuDNN)
  
  

• Experience with integrating applications and platforms with cloud technologies (i.e. AWS and GCP)
  
  

• Strong oral and written communication skills. Ability to conduct meetings and make professional presentations, and to explain complex concepts and technical material to non-technical users
