Experience Minimum 5 years software engineering + minimum 2 years LLM/GenAI application development

We are seeking a Senior AI Engineer to design, build, deploy, and operate enterprise-grade Large Language Model (LLM) applications supporting business processes within a regulated financial services environment.

The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience taking Generative AI solutions from design through production deployment and providing ongoing production support. This role requires deep expertise in LLM orchestration, RAG, AI evaluation, Python, cloud services, observability, and production-grade AI engineering., * Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.

• Minimum 5 years of professional software engineering experience.
• Minimum 2 years of experience developing LLM/Generative AI applications.
• Demonstrated experience deploying at least one enterprise-grade AI application into production and supporting it after launch., * Strong experience with LLM evaluation methodologies, including:

o Dataset/golden dataset curation

o Metric selection

o Evaluation of non-deterministic outputs

o Appropriate use of LLM-as-judge techniques

o Established evaluation frameworks or custom evaluation harnesses

• Strong proficiency in Python 3.11+, including:

o Type annotations

o Automated testing

o Asynchronous programming

• Experience building and operating cloud-based services such as:

o REST APIs

o Data pipelines

o Event-driven workers

• Experience working within codebases governed by automated quality gates and formal code reviews.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Document AI / Intelligent Document Processing, including:

o OCR

o Structured field extraction

o Scanned documents

• Experience implementing business rules or policies as versioned and reviewable artifacts.
• Experience with event-driven architecture, particularly Apache Kafka.
• Experience with Kubernetes, Helm, and CI/CD pipeline ownership.
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code, particularly Terraform.
• Experience with:

o Model selection

o Model benchmarking

o Fine-tuning

o Distillation

o Cost and quality optimization

• Prior experience within financial services, insurance, healthcare, or another regulated industry., * LLMs
• LLM orchestration frameworks
• RAG
• Agentic AI
• LLM evaluation and observability tooling

Programming / Application Development

• Python 3.11+
• FastAPI
• Pydantic

Data / Database

• PostgreSQL with vector extensions
