  • Collaborate with data engineering and platform teams to ensure AI solutions are production-ready
  • Advise on the selection and use of AI services and platforms as the tech stack evolves
  • Help establish foundational AI development standards, patterns, and workflows
  • Mentor and support team members through knowledge sharing and technical leadership
  • Balance hands-on delivery with advisory input as the AI capability matures
  • Architect workflows, eliminate operational inefficiencies, and rapidly ship automations that unlock leverage across every function.
  • Stay updated with the latest in LLMs, agent orchestration frameworks, and AI tooling

Must-Have Requirements

  • Experience building and shipping Agentic AI / LLM-driven tools & products
  • Build scalable APIs for model access, integration, and service orchestration
  • Proficiency in RAG architectures, including vector stores (e.g., Pinecone, Weaviate), embedding models, and retrieval tuning
  • Hands-on development experience in n8n and complementary no-code / low-code tooling.
  • Senior-level experience in AI / Machine Learning / Data Science
  • Strong background in model development, training, and evaluation
  • Experience building applied AI solutions in real-world environments
  • Hands-on experience with AWS AI / ML services, such as :
  • SageMaker
  • Bedrock
  • Other AWS-native AI services
  • Strong Python experience and familiarity with common ML frameworks
  • Ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, early-stage environments
  • Strong communication skills and ability to influence without direct authority
  • Comfortable acting as both builder and advisor
  • Create a job alert for this search
