• You'll design and maintain the infrastructure that powers client deliverables - ingestion pipelines, data models, transformation layers, and the orchestration that keeps it all running. • You'll build and ship AI applications - not prototype them. That means writing production-grade code, designing agent workflows, and integrating LLMs into systems where accuracy and reliability actually matter. • You'll architect agent systems with clear evaluation criteria, human-in-the-loop checkpoints where they matter, and monitoring that tells you when something goes wrong. • You'll own deployment end-to-end - containerized services, Kubernetes orchestration, cloud infrastructure, and the CI/CD pipelines that keep everything moving. • As a founding engineer, you'll help identify what we build repeatedly across engagements and turn it into durable internal infrastructure - shared data models, evaluation frameworks, deployment patterns.
