AI/ML Engineer — Job Posting

Overview

We are looking for a production-minded AI/ML Engineer to design, build, train, and deploy the machine learning systems that power our real-time copilot.

This is a full-stack ML role spanning the entire lifecycle — from data pipelines and model training to deployment, optimization, and monitoring in production.

You will work at the intersection of LLMs, speech AI, retrieval systems, and real-time inference, building systems that must be fast, reliable, and scalable for millions of users.

Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities

1. Model Development & Training

  • Build, train, and fine-tune ML models including LLMs, NLP systems, and speech-to-text models
  • Apply modern techniques like LoRA, QLoRA, DPO, RLHF, and adapters
  • Design high-quality training datasets through cleaning, annotation, and augmentation
  • Run experiments, ablations, and performance evaluations to improve model quality

2. Real-Time Model Deployment

  • Build low-latency inference pipelines for real-time AI responses
  • Optimize performance using streaming, caching, batching, and quantization
  • Deploy models using Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines
  • Integrate multiple LLM providers with routing, failover, and orchestration systems

3. RAG & AI Systems

  • Build retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines using embeddings and vector databases
  • Develop semantic search, summarization, classification, and NLP features
  • Design prompt systems, tool calling, and multi-turn conversational flows
  • Build agentic workflows with function calling and multi-step reasoning

4. Evaluation & Monitoring

  • Create automated and human evaluation systems for model quality
  • Track latency, hallucinations, accuracy, cost, and user satisfaction metrics
  • Implement drift detection and regression monitoring
  • Optimize token usage and inference costs across models

5. Data & Feature Engineering

  • Build scalable data pipelines for training and production use
  • Design feature extraction systems from user interactions and logs
  • Implement data versioning, lineage tracking, and experiment tracking
  • Collaborate with analytics and engineering teams on data infrastructure

6. Safety & Responsible AI

  • Implement guardrails, filters, and safety validation systems
  • Evaluate models for bias, fairness, and robustness
  • Ensure privacy-first design and secure handling of user data
  • Support responsible AI practices across the ML lifecycle
