Mission Statement & Summary
We’re hiring a Lead AI Engineer to own the design and delivery of AI systems across the business.
This is a hands-on role focused on building production-grade solutions using LLMs and agentic systems, embedding AI directly into core business processes rather than building isolated prototypes. You’ll take high-value problems and turn them into scalable, reliable systems used in real workflows, driving measurable business outcomes.
You’ll have ownership of technical direction, architecture, and implementation, translating defined business priorities into robust, production-ready systems. You’ll make key technical decisions and work hands-on alongside engineers to deliver solutions that are reusable, scalable, and built for long-term impact.
How You’ll Contribute
Own the technical direction, architecture, and implementation of AI systems end-to-end
Design and build LLM-powered and agent-based solutions from concept to production
Establish engineering standards, patterns, and reusable components across use cases
Own key technical decisions on models, tooling, infrastructure, and system design
Ensure systems are robust, observable, and production-ready (evaluation, monitoring, guardrails)
Provide technical leadership and direction to engineers contributing to AI initiatives
We're Looking For These Essential Skills
Proven track record of owning the technical direction and delivery of production-grade AI systems end-to-end
Experience designing and delivering complex AI systems across multiple use cases or domains
Deep expertise in generative AI / LLMs, including orchestration, prompting, and evaluation
Experience building agentic or multi-step AI systems
Strong software engineering fundamentals including APIs, system design, and cloud-based architectures
