Job description
A fast-growing AI company developing advanced design and engineering tools is looking for a Senior Applied AI Engineer to help build and scale intelligent agent systems powering their next- platform.
This role focuses on creating production-grade AI workflows and agent architectures that connect advanced models with real-world engineering and manufacturing environments. The successful candidate will play a key role in building systems that transform how engineers and designers interact with AI when creating physical products. This is a hands-on engineering role where you'll work closely with product and research teams to translate cutting-edge AI capabilities into reliable, user-facing tools.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement AI agent systems and orchestration workflows for production applications.
- Build intelligent pipelines integrating LLMs, tools, and external systems.
- Develop evaluation frameworks to ensure reliability, performance, and accuracy of AI workflows.
- Work on applications that bridge software systems with physical manufacturing technologies (e.g., CAD, 3D printing, CNC).
- Collaborate with engineering and product teams to bring new AI capabilities into customer-facing products.
Requirements
- Strong software engineering background with TypeScript, React, Node.js, and Python.
- Experience building LLM-powered applications and agent architectures (tool calling, multi-agent workflows, reasoning loops).
- Experience with orchestration frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, or similar.
- Proven experience integrating AI systems into production web products.
- Direct experience with the physical engineering world is essential - mechanical engineering, CAD, manufacturing, robotics, aerospace, or similar domains.
- Experience working with multimodal AI systems is highly beneficial.
The role is offering a salary of up to $250,000 per annum and is a hybrid working schedule (3 days per week).
