Sr Advanced AI Platform Engineer

As a Full Stack AI Platform Engineer here at Honeywell, you will design, build, and scale AI systems end-to-end - from high-throughput IoT streaming pipelines and knowledge graph infrastructure, through LLM orchestration and RAG services, to the React-based interfaces that surface autonomous insights to plant engineers, facility managers, and OT security analysts.

You will work at the intersection of data engineering, machine learning operations, and edge AI - building production-grade infrastructure that processes billions of IoT events from building management systems, deploys models to edge devices, and enables AI-driven applications including predictive diagnostics, energy monitoring, and RAG-based knowledge systems.

This is a high-impact individual contributor role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, ships production systems, and can operate across the full stack from cloud-native platforms to edge GPU hardware. You will report to our Sr Data Engineering Manager and work from our Atlanta, GA location on a hybrid basis.
