Job Description
AI Engineer
IFS
• Rapidly prototype AI agents and guided workflows that solve concrete customer problems; ship thin slices, instrument, and iterate with real usage. • Design and implement cloud-native backend services that orchestrate prompts, tools, retrieval, and automations; own the path from POC to production. • Build robust retrieval for LLMs (search/vector pipelines, context assembly, tool selection) in partnership with data engineering. • Establish evaluation loops: offline/online tests, golden sets, regression checks, and human-in-the-loop review to measurably improve quality and safety. • Contribute to developer experience: reusable agents/tools, SDKs, templates, and internal documentation that speed up future builds. • Collaborate with customers and internal stakeholders to frame problems, define success metrics, and translate insights into productizable solutions. • Lead design discussions and code reviews; mentor teammates and raise the quality bar while keeping momentum high.
Job Requirements
- 4–8+ years as a software/AI engineer, including shipping 0→1 products or features in startup-like environments.
- Strong in Python (and comfortable with TypeScript); able to build production services and integrate with external systems/APIs.
- Proven experience taking LLM/agent systems to production (tool use, function calling, planning/exec, retrieval-augmented generation).
- Hands-on with evaluation (offline/online), prompt engineering, tracing, and observability for AI systems.
- Familiarity with vector databases/search, embeddings, and context/retrieval patterns; pragmatism about when/what to index.
- Solid backend fundamentals (services, queues, data models, CI/CD, cloud) and a bias to automate what you repeat.
- Excellent communication and product sense—able to turn fuzzy business problems into clear technical plans and measurable outcomes.
- Fast mover: comfort with ambiguity, crisp prioritization, and the judgment to ship small, safe increments quickly.
- Nice-to-have: open-source contributions, hackathon wins, or a portfolio of shipped side projects; experience at both an early-stage startup and a larger-scale system.
Benefits
- Flexible paid time off, including sick and holiday
- Medical, dental, & vision insurance
- 401K with Company contribution
- Flexible spending accounts
- Life insurance and disability benefits
- Tuition assistance
- Community involvement and volunteering events
